She had eyes the color of planet earth
And I’m sinking as I climb
Can’t give this feeling a name
When your dead, dumb and blind
And the television-
I swear it’s trying to tell me something
And the world outside-
I swear it’s dying to see me weeping
I’m not ready but I’m ready
I’m ready but I’m not ready
I’m ready but I’m not worthy
I’m not worthy and I’m not ready
Illuminated but still in the dark
I’m fighting off demons in my dreams
Dangerous it is to dream by day
But that is my reality
They keep pushing me
They keep chasing me
They keep following me around
Following me around
They’ve got their high beams on
I look to the stars
And I’m ready to go upstairs
But they’re trying to run me down
And then, again, I’m not ready
Not ready to die this way
