It's like...
There's something there
It's in the back of mind. I can't get it out...
These voices...

[Chorus]
There's an undertow brewing in the back of my mind
It's dragging me under and then grabbing my life
And sapping me dry. This damn undertow
Where the lightning strike? Shhh, the thunder knows

[Verse 1]
Where insanity lurks there is a fetal fetus
The air hurts, it's charred yellow like seeing Venus
The smoke won't clear, so your breathing weakens
We keep the heathens here to let em sleep with demons
An inverted mind where every smile lies
Every try is prized, quite divine, now it's time to die
Nevermind the cries, just throw some iodine
They'll be flying high soon, see the pious eyes?
Steer clear of those guys if you cherish life
Learn to see in the dark like those Paris nights
Now we drift off more into the slope of sleep
Broken things haunt our hopes and dreams
We lay back on grass where nostalgia creeps
Track the past, capture fast a whole lot'of screams
A new world... ghosts control the dark
Where the mistakes we ever made patrol our thoughts

[Verse 2]
I got some beef - so I'ma sit and stew
Rock to sleep partially, I'm pissed at you
My emotions run together like a soup of sorts
But we're the pillars of the earth, I need some group support
By "we" I mean all these scrambled thoughts and I
Rock-a-bye baby -- no time to stop and cry
I just fell asleep, so am I dreaming still?
Going through a rough spell, gotta keep it real
But there are people here, and it hurts to look
Bombarded like the dirt was shook and the earth was cooked
Half a billion years before life arose
I suppose the time is close to say my mind is toast
Let's find a boat... and sail the sands of time
Grab the moon and revere the trailing band of light
A raging river of awe, you cannot stop 'em all
These days're bitter as we topple towards the waterfall
