You built your world from carvings of stone

Admission comes on when you're always alone

The time is ticking and you're feeling the pinch

In confrontations you wont move an inch

Accumulation isn't part of the deal

The one frustration that you wont reveal

You hide behind your excuses and lies

The only piece that you wont jeopardise

Spike the guns of habit

The truth leads you far away

The silence terrifying

Denies the light of day

You cast your mind to the blackest ideals

You wouldn't know how tranquillity feels

You find yourself just standing alone

You're bound forever but you chew a bone

Spike the guns of habit

The truth leads you far away

The silence terrifying

Denies the light of day

And still you hold me under

And you drive me away

And the silence terrifying

Denies the light of day
