Flies

The walls breathe slower when the light goes out

Something whispers names I never spoke about

I found a handprint on the ceiling last night

Pressed in the plaster, too small, too tight

The floorboards hung with a hollow sound

Something crawls where it can't be found

I turn the key, but the door won't move

The house is alive, and it doesn't approve

They said the silence would keep me sane

But silence keeps repeating in my name

I can't remember when I first forgot

But the memories linger where it runs

The mirror cracked without a dot

But the face still smiled too much

I cut the glass like broken teeth

Every number steals a breath of me

The hallway fans and stars goodbye

I walk forever, but I'm still inside

The clock ticks backwards, and then it stops

The sound of flipping never stops

They said the silence would keep me sane

But silence keeps repeating in my name

I can't remember when I first forgot

But the memories linger where it runs

I can't remember when I first forgot

But the face still smiled too much

I walk forever, but I'm still inside

The clock ticks backwards, and then it stops

The room still stares, I feel its weight in the thin air

I lock my thoughts in a rusted chest

But someone's wearing them like a vest

I scream for help, but the sound won't rise

I drown in the dark where the echoes lie

I walk forever, but I'm still inside

The room still stares

I scream for help, but the sound won't rise

I drown in the dark where the echoes lie

I scream for help, but the sound won't rise

I drown in the dark where the echoes lie

They said the silence would keep me sane

But the silence keeps repeating in my name

I can't remember when I first forgot

But the memories linger where it runs

I don't belong here, but I can't leave

I don't belong here, but I can't leave

I don't belong here

I don't belong here

I don't belong here
