"Dystopia" lyrics

"Dystopia"

Talking in my sleep, cursing through my teeth, sweating in the heat
Stuck inside this dream of darkening frustration
Liars in my dream, I'm frightened and I'm weak, there's nothing left for me
And the visions I endure are simply entertainment
Dark figures chasing me, I hear the wolf that cries, see them multiply
You're ablaze behind the eyes; they burn into my memory
A sudden sense of hope, the virtue of my ghost, you're another ugly host
And I can't believe that you would just deny everything

I choose to live free
It took a second warning then I said goodbye
With tainted eyes I need to believe
It took a little longer to sympathize
And you were hoping I would give in to you

I won't dance because you want me to
No romance; deep down I only want to be the same
Now there's nowhere left to hide
Game of chance; I roll the dice for you
Hopeless glance; deep down I only want to be the same
Now there's nowhere left to hide

The greatest thing you'll ever learn
Is just to love and be loved in return
I'm living such a life; therein lies your problem
Imperfect, circular, entropy the fatal conclusion
With a little sympathy it'll burn inside, let the fires decide
Imperfect and circular

I won't comfort you; no it won't be the same
There's nowhere left to hide
And I won't comfort you; no it won't be the same
There's nowhere left to hide
And I won't comfort you; no it won't be the same
There's nowhere left to hide
