I hear the sound it echoes in my head.
The voice to stay alive.
The difference of sanity and dead.
A way I could survive.

It drops a steady metronome.
Kinda vague but clear.
Dragging me from home.
And then we disappear.

Listen to the note.
Listen and obey.
I only hear it with my eyes closed.
Still so far away.

I couldn't help but stop and stare.
you didn't see me.
I wondered if you'd even care.
Please set my eyes free.

I can't get away.
And I can't let go.
I couldn't hear you with my eyes closed.
I'm so far away.

Listen to me.
Now you will obey.
Won't you make me force your eyes closed?
And send you away.

I'll send you away.
I'm so far away.
