Dispossession from the album Discoveries, by Northlane. (2011)
Lost in a valley of smoke, I lose sight of those I love. I cant live in this
dream, wondering the world a lost soul. A shell of a man, frozen in a toxic
trance. Unfamiliar reflection stare at me, these eye are not my own. Running
from my demons in this endless valley. Show me the way, because I no longer
know right from wrong. I know what has to be done, the smoke will settle the
demons will come and I will be torn apart. Exposing my weakness the world will
see, what I never fucking wanted. As I stare at your face, soaked in disgrace,
what is the price a judgment of life, I cry out in this dispossession. Exposing
my weakness the world will see what I never, what I never, what I never fucking
wanted. They crowd around me, here to take their share of my mind. I can no
longer muster the strength to face them alone, all on my own. They whisper
echoes in unknown tongues, I refuse to absorb their toxic words. I've forgotten
how to love, searching behind locked doors in my mind. Cast aside the fear of
reality, face the fucking world.
