Thrown Away

(album: Take It Like A Man - 2015)

Somewhere out in space I've lost myself, I've been misplaced
Somehow I've been thrown away
I've grown allergic to an image, fractured by an idea my brain
Is full of rot and disease
I've been thrown away

Let's make believe that these walls could sing
They'd open up and they'd welcome me in
But in the end I'd know it's been a dream
Let's make believe that these shadows screamed
They'd reach out they'd hold on to me
But in the end I'd know it's been a dream

I walk these streets like a phantom limb
I should belong but I don't fit in
I feel I've been thrown away
I've tried to make myself better, tried every pill
I will burn everything when I feel threatened
I fear in empty space

Let's make believe that these walls could sing
They'd open up and they'd welcome me in
But in the end I'd know it's been a dream
Let's make believe that these shadows screamed
They'd reach out they'd hold on to me
But in the end I'd know it's been a dream

Slow down, please don't throw me away
With each step towards regret I know I've done it to myself
Slow down, don't forget me
I've tried to push the blame but I've done it to myself

Let's make believe that these walls could sing
They'd open up and they'd welcome me in
But in the end I'd know it's been a dream
Let's make believe that these shadows screamed
They'd reach out they'd hold on to me
But in the end I'd know it's been a dream
