Phantom Pain

Lyrics for Phantom Pain

Why do I gain strength by losing energy? I realized I wanna be my own worst enemy These are the first words that leave my mouth in a long time Kept them sealed in my mind I miss the place where I was born That makes me looking at the world the way that I do It's always been my father Never been further away from each other But at the same time never closer Present days go their ways Faster than the dreams you chase (I'm alright, I'm alright) And I think that I am doing just fine I'd rather worry 'bout your state of mind Than to clean up my own mess, no good strategy I'm calling it a hit, calling after me This kid he looks for roots by burning trees Ashes of leaves covering crumbled up anxieties Where was his mother the first weeks of his life? The story of his birth is how his mother almost died Present days go their ways Faster than the dreams you chase (I'm alright, I'm alright) And I think that I am doing just fine I'd rather worry 'bout your state of mind Than to clean up my own mess, no good strategy I'm calling it a hit, calling after me Why do I gain strength by losing energy? I realized I wanna be my own worst enemy These are the first words that leave my mouth in a long time Kept them sealed in my mind
