Medusa - Awake the Mutes

Fuck it, I’m aware that this is wrong

And I couldn’t care any less

By choice or force, I’ll make sure we coalesce

I’m not tryin to make amends

Been here before, here before, in my head

Played it through, thinking how I would approach you if we met

I’m too far gone

Might give in to what I have become

No glory in what Imma do

I’m so strung out over you

Freezing at your sight

Losing thought of what I’d say

The pressure is too much to take

Looking my way

I turn to stone and can’t escape

I’m overwhelmed and shaking

Been here before, here before, in your street

Late at night, knowing all the things you think of when you sleep

Alerted by a sudden noise, I heard it, I’m not paranoid

Must have been the wind, I’m nervous, staring right into the void

I’m circling where you live, I hope that no one sees me in your street

Lost all my decency, I’m incomplete

There’s a doubt itching in my neck and fear in my brain

Feel like a wounded animal that has been tricked by its prey

Every door has its ears, every window its eyes

I’m well disguised, though I know it won’t be hard to recognize

That I’m about to commit a crime, that’s what I’m willing to do, yeah

Just to get another glimpse, to lay my eyes upon you

Because the further you push me away, the harder I pull

I need to be the one in full control

Loner, creep, pretentious, thief

I’m too far gone to turn this around

Careful not to make a sound

Freezing at your sight

Losing thought of what I’d say

The pressure is too much to take

Looking my way

I turn to stone and can’t escape

I’m overwhelmed and shaking
