Sirens III

I hear red and white and sirens
Like thunder and lightning under my eyelids
Let me die quiet
In terrified silence I couldn't find before
Wish I could let go
But everything echoes, everything echoes
Stuck in this dead zone
Memories get so frozen inside

And if I could get away
I wouldn't be here
Live another day
And never see fear
Everything is fine
You're in denial
Occupy your mind
Until you spiral down, down, down, down, down
Down, down
And I can tell that you can still hear the sirens

And I try to tell the truth
But it never comes out the right way when
I'm lying next to you
And I always hold back what I say
When these sirens cut into my lifelines
Never found the right time
To tell you anything at all
All I hear is

I'm on the highway
There's nowhere to escape
From everything you told me
When you set the record straight
And this is my blame
That I could never take
Cause I've been disingenuous
Since 1998
And I survived pain
With demons I create
The vices I rely on
Keep reality at bay
And I deny faith
But I swear I used to pray
That we would reconcile
From the fires that we made

And if I could get away
I wouldn't be here
Live another day
And never see fear
Everything is fine
You're in denial
Occupy your mind
Until you spiral down, down, down, down, down
Down, down
And I can tell that you can still hear the sirens

I let this get inside my head
Time and time again
In every epilogue I've read
Seems like they never find the end

And I try to tell the truth
But it never comes out the right way when
I'm lying next to you
And I always hold back what I say
When these sirens cut into my lifelines
Never found the right time
To tell you anything at all

And I try to tell the truth
But it never comes out the right way when
I'm lying next to you
And I always hold back what I say
When these sirens cut into my lifelines
Never found the right time
To tell you anything at all

All I hear is sirens
Sirens
Screaming out my name
All I hear is sirens
Sirens
Screaming out my name
All I hear is sirens
Sirens
Screaming out my name
All I hear is sirens
Sirens
Screaming out my name
All I hear is sirens
