Clarity - Defeat The Low

It makes a lot more sense to be slapped in the face

with the truth than to die from a lie

It makes a lot more sense to ask questions,

open your mouth and be fed

Than to keep it closed and just starve to death

All these dreams come rushing back to play

when the sickness dissipates

Endless nights of sweat and cold

illusions take the stage

Put it off, is it really me conjuring these things

I may never understand the things I see after I’ve fallen asleep

This is something I want, this is something I need

To extinguish a fire that I will no longer feed

Because I have burned in the fire, yes I have burned in that fire

Just to prove that I am a man, all to no avail

Because in the ashes is stand

All to no avail, because in the ashes I stand.

All these dreams come rushing back to play

when the sickness dissipates

Endless nights of sweat and cold,

illusions take the stage

Put it off, is it really me conjuring these things

I may never understand the things I see after I’ve fallen asleep
