Dead Sentinels

what a feeling to let go of something blood from the vein
Keeps me captive here and ashamed,
I'm on the wire losing sight of what I once truly desired
And I don't know, why I even try when my sheltered heart lives a lie
Now I'm dancing on my own two feet,
what a feeling, to be let down denied the controls
All the tension has taken it's toll,
I, I'm on fire losing sight of what I once truly deserved

And I don't know why I even try when my sheltered heart lives a lie,
I'm living a lie, I'm leaving your lives
Hide from the clones all the sentences have gone cold, talk it gets cheap,
turn the volume down
And laugh yourself to sleep and I don't know why I even try
when my sheltered heart lives a lie
I'm cutting all ties from leading your life, lies
