Blackout

from Blank Canvass by Critical Unity

lyrics

She turned her head and I blacked out
The centre of the sun turned inside out
The gravity pulled everything towards itself
And with it went every lie I told myself

It's easier to be what they wanna see
It's easier if you don't question anything
It's easier to pretend that you have a voice
When you're screaming into the void

One glance at her neck and my life hollowed out
In the eye of a hurricane all flattened down
Chaos and fear and uprooted dreams whirling around
It's just hard to be here silence when it all dies down

It's easier to be what they wanna see
It's easier if you don't question anything
It's easier to pretend that you have a voice
When you're screaming into the void

And I can lay in the loveless bed I made
And I can wear the mask upon my face
And I can choose the safer road until I break
And I can crumple it all up in a ball and throw it away, away

It's easier to be what they wanna see
It's easier if you don't question anything
It's easier to pretend that you have a voice
When you're screaming into the void
