Insects - Ash

Insects, all these insects

They come crawling across your floor

They are lurking in every corner

You can’t ignore them anymore

Their eyes watch you while you’re sleeping

They colonise your very skin

Now you feel your throat constricting

Feel the panic kicking in

You can’t run away from yourself

You can’t run away from yourself

You can’t run away from yourself

Insects, all these insects

That you face when you’re alone

All your failings, inhibitions

They take hold and don’t let go

Just like insects, a plague of insects

On the city streets below

All the swarming crowds of people

Multiplying, out of control

You can’t run away from yourself

You can’t run away from yourself

You can’t run away from yourself

Neurotic revulsion

Subconscious compulsions

Infernal impulses

Such vivid hallucinations

Nightmarish fixations

Figments of your imagination

You don’t deserve love

You feel you’re worthless

In denial

Psychosis

Break the cycle

The power lies within

You can’t run away from yourself

You can’t run away from yourself

You can’t run away from yourself

You can’t run away from yourself

You can’t run away from yourself

You can’t run away from yourself
