lyrics

999 (Emergency Exit)

When every smile is a counterfeit
I've lost all reason to respond
Everybody's a suspect
Because each pair of lips never part with much truth at all
and each moment is just waiting
for the next to take its place
No word is legitimate
There's no genuine face
Every promise is joking
Holding fingers behind your back
The eyes never take notice of
The things that the mind feel detached
As the illness takes over
Preserving no place left for help
If nothing is an emergency
Who do you call for help?

The price that you pay
is always worth more than the cost
and the amount that you gain
is taken from you with each loss
and the ideas that seemed so bright
darken with each focuse
then you know you never should have believed
in anyone or anything

The horizons that look beautiful
Turn ugly at approach
and the genuine, seemingly
are really just a cockroach
If you expand your mind
You risk emptying all that you know
Nobody knows anything, no
but they'll always tell you so
Everyone's ability's disabled
Restrictions holding you down
Why are the loudest of screams
The ones most silenced down?
When a side is chosen
You've made new enemies
and every voice that is broken
Can only speak upon their knees
What holds the memory for the parts we save?
Death is always closer than yesterday.
