Stop the world so I can finally breathe Static tension pulling at my teeth The clock is humming knives against the wall Waiting for the heavy sky to fall And release the rhythm from underneath Buried ghosts that won't let me be Give me night to show the world my gist In the silence I exist Concrete veins are pumping out the grey I’m a shadow trying to find a way To disconnect the wires in my head And leave behind the words I never said If I pull the pin on gravity Will the pieces drift away from me? Just a ghost in the machine of light Dissolving in the velvet dark of night And release the rhythm from underneath Buried ghosts that won't let me be Give me night to show the world my gist In the silence I exist Just let it go In the silence I exist Only silence left To breathe.
