The Loneliness and the Scream

Can you hear the road from this place?
Can you hear footsteps? Voices?
Can you see the blood on my sleeve?
I have fallen in the forest.
Did you hear me? In the loneliness?
Oh the loneliness, and the scream to prove to everyone
That I exist, in the loneliness.
Oh the loneliness, and the scream to bring
The blood to the front of my face again.

Am I here? Well, of course I am, yes.
All I need is your hand to drag me out again.
It wasn't me that didn't dig this ditch.
I was walking for weeks before I fell in
To the loneliness.
Oh the loneliness,
And the scream to prove to everyone that I exist.
In the loneliness.
Oh the loneliness,
And the scheme to fill a thousand black balloons with air.

(Oh)

(Whoa)
Well I'm done playing God just to lose it again
(Whoa)
Leave it to me to keep together, we were hammering it
(Whoa)
Well I'm done playing God, I can lose it again
(Whoa)
I'll never calm your heart, it beats miles from here
(Repeat and fade out.
