Affliction - Left of Centre

Living in the past and make believe

Or so they tell me

Looking into those eyes from beneath

You could have fooled me

Realize the world’s not trouble and drop the bottle

Just stop the obduracy

It’s no secret you have been wronged and pushed into seclusion

Numbing memories locked inside your head continue to play

In time all those lonely nights with pain breed affliction

As the complacent saw the sun rising today

Pushed away from the family

I swear they won’t help

But maybe it’s just my naivety

You’re different with me

Realize the world’s not trouble and drop the bottle

Don’t throw this all away

It’s no secret you have been wronged and pushed into seclusion

Numbing memories locked inside your head continue to play

In time all those lonely nights with pain breed affliction

As the complacent saw the sun rising today

A bad decision never brings relief

Don’t want to think of you while you’re below my feet

It’s no secret you have been wronged and pushed into seclusion

Numbing memories locked inside your head continue to play

In time all those lonely nights with pain breed affliction

As the complacent saw the sun rising today
