D.o.a.

I´m always on the run
From all the things I´ve never done
I can never escape.
Fluid in my lungs
Ooh ´cause I´ve been treading water for so long
You burn the books you never read,
Because of what you think they said.
I´m not dead on arrival
Though I´m up against the ropes
So I´ll stare into the darkness
Just to, see how deep it goes
Neon and silhouettes
Stare at the light and just yourself
Seems we don´t bury our dead
We watch but we don´t learn
Entertained and unconcerned,
And unaware.
Oh you burn the books you never read
Because of what you think they said
But I´m not dead on arrival
Though I´m up against the ropes
So I´ll stare into the darkness
Just to see how deep it goes
We´re told to watch others live our dreams
So we all sit staring at the screens
The numbing warmth of the neon blue
Can´t give me something to hold on to
I´m not dead on arrival
Though I´m up against the ropes
So I´ll stare into the darkness
Just to see how deep it goes.
From all the things I´ve never done
I can never escape.
Fluid in my lungs
Ooh ´cause I´ve been treading water for so long
You burn the books you never read,
Because of what you think they said.
I´m not dead on arrival
Though I´m up against the ropes
So I´ll stare into the darkness
Just to, see how deep it goes
Neon and silhouettes
Stare at the light and just yourself
Seems we don´t bury our dead
We watch but we don´t learn
Entertained and unconcerned,
And unaware.
Oh you burn the books you never read
Because of what you think they said
But I´m not dead on arrival
Though I´m up against the ropes
So I´ll stare into the darkness
Just to see how deep it goes
We´re told to watch others live our dreams
So we all sit staring at the screens
The numbing warmth of the neon blue
Can´t give me something to hold on to
I´m not dead on arrival
Though I´m up against the ropes
So I´ll stare into the darkness
Just to see how deep it goes.
