I can't recall the last time I felt excited There should be moments there Instead it's Phantom pain The greatness of elation escapes chase of pumping veins Instead it's Only pain I wish it would rain Blue light seeps in while water pounds Where I've cut the power where Nothing lives Except strange Patterns endlessly dreamed up warming mortal meat in vain Instead their presence makes what hope remains just drain Might dreams be reprieve from apathy or worse? Maybe so but never for me I know it sounds morose but think The singer of songs finds unanimous love and is warm to the core by what the crowd brings When the monitors die and the singer outside gets shot through the teeth the dream is a lie and we all nod like "Well it had to happen sooner or later" Every time life parts hiding eyes I wake into nightmare

Excitement
I can't recall the last time I felt excited There should be moments there Instead it's Phantom pain The greatness of elation escapes chase of pumping veins Instead it's Only pain I wish it would rain Blue light seeps in while water pounds Where I've cut the power where Nothing lives Except strange Patterns endlessly dreamed up warming mortal meat in vain Instead their presence makes what hope remains just drain Might dreams be reprieve from apathy or worse? Maybe so but never for me I know it sounds morose but think The singer of songs finds unanimous love and is warm to the core by what the crowd brings When the monitors die and the singer outside gets shot through the teeth the dream is a lie and we all nod like "Well it had to happen sooner or later" Every time life parts hiding eyes I wake into nightmare
