Porcelain Skin - The Northern

Everything is bleak

Vacant eyes, blank face, swollen lips

A cold stare that nothing could compare

Choking on these crooked teeth

I can’t speak with all this glass caught between my teeth

Separate from this insanity

Obsessiveness, contagious behavior

I will believe that there’s still hope instilled in me

In you and I, in you and I

I can’t believe that you’re still not here

But you’re still not here and I’m nowhere near

Now, suffer me through

Cut ourselves down right in two

Swallows pride, shattered glass cuts through our lives

Now suffer me through

Cut ourselves down right in two

Swallows pride, shattered glass cuts through her eyes

She screams beware

She follows me close (Follows me close)

She says the end is near if you don’t steer clear

Be wary

Beware

Walk with me through the flames of

Walk with me through the flames of the fire

Walkthrough the burning flames

Walk with me through flames of the fire

Unscathed, we breathe through fear

All I see is a bleak future staring right back at me

Why can’t we say what we feel?

(We're too scared to say how we feel)

Something here has to change

Instead of casting blame and judgment

Too scared to say what is real

Too many people turn their backs on us

«Out of sight, out of mind» is easiest

Too scared to say what is real

(This is no way to live life)

(This is no way, just waiting to die)

All I see is a bleak

Future staring right back at me

Why can’t we say what we feel?

Too many people turn their back on us

«Out of sight, out of mind» is easiest

Too scared to say what is real

(This is no way to live life)

(This is no way, just waiting to die)
