Lyrics for Orphan

I never wanted this distance This distance between myself and the rest of the world Unanswered voicemails the cursor hangs anxiously Waiting for words that never come Pages filled with scraps of life imagined Reconstructed like the act of a murder scene I don't want the baggage of things that are left unsaid Somewhere in between we've lost ourselves Keep our cards close it's how we wear our lies Together but we are alone Bridge of memories, that ends in death cycling like cover flow Why are we trapped where only shadows fall? How do we belong? Punching holes in myself when there's no holes left to cut and regret does not absolve It's all falling apart in my hands It's all I have Choked up Bled out Waiting for tears Will they come? Further our hearts Our rendered voice Across the world Still the tears won't come Orphan
