I hardly recognize the face that's in front of me
You've let this be your plague
It works its way under your skin
The parallel life takes over
Made you its slave
I read the tales told by lifeless eyes
Look deep through your disguise
We sign our souls away
Bodies transform into ghosts of our new lives
As we dissolve into this regime
How clear it stains these walls
Let blood return to these cold hearts withering away
As time caves in
pulses beat through the death of our hope

Let blood return
to these cold hearts withering away. [x2]
Bodies transform into ghosts
of our new lives. [x2]

I read the tales told by lifeless eyes
I look deeper through your disguise. [x2]

Before we know, we're casting eyes
over rough seas of storms
Over barren lands, distant fields
that can never be roamed. [x2]

With hands held out, we've lost the touch we crave
Dreaming of the warmth of skin, rebuild integrity
