Manic - The Beautiful Monument

There’s something wrong, this isn’t right

There’s something here inside my head

It slowly eats at my insides

It knows my thoughts and where I hide

It chases me until I crack on the outside

It follows me until I break

It’s always there when I’m awake

And when I sleep from me it tears

A sickly presence always there

I’m trapped inside this place

And there’s no escape, I feel it now I know

I’m slowly slipping away (I'm slowly slipping away)

I’m trapped inside my head

And there is nowhere else to go

Keep running

I’m losing my way now

I’m running on empty

The monster’s coming back to the place I call home

What is left of my fragile mind?

Yet I’m proud to be left broken

of what’s next

Is it right to pull me away from this?

Will I find my way back home?

I’m trapped inside this place

And there’s no escape, I feel it now I know

I’m slowly slipping away (I'm slowly slipping away)

I’m trapped inside my head

And there is nowhere else to go

Keep running

I’m losing my way now

I’m running on empty

I feel your presence behind me

You’re here and I’m not scared

My fragile thoughts take over

Slowly controlling everything

I feel your presence behind me

You’re here and I’m not scared

My fragile thoughts take over

Slowly controlling everything

I’m trapped inside my head

And there is nowhere else to go

Keep running

I’m losing my way now

I’m running on empty
