lyrics

the blinds are up, the light is on, it's dark outside
am I more than just a silhouette, do I want me here?
I try to shut it out, but I care too much
I cling too hard to movies

I like a moving picture, can't look away
I'm only just a picture, a body in bed
your face is on my walls, and I'm trying to take it down

open space, enemy of my mind
passing time, enemy of my mind
open space, enemy of my mind
passing time, enemy of my mind

save me from the concrete, it owns me,
with the mark it's left behind
reminds me of the time I just laid there,
while my skin forgot the feeling of the sun,
I lay still just waiting
I can't feel anything anymore

open space, enemy of my mind
passing time, enemy of my mind
open space, enemy of my mind
passing time, enemy of my mind

get out, get out
get out, get out
get out, get out
get out, get out

the blinds up are up, the light is on, it's dark outside
I cling too hard to movies
