obscured - karl's song lyrics

[verse 1]

some of us are in the ground now
some above it
can’t say that i love it
the way it turned out
walking through the graveyard like i just found out
and i ask myself, ‘why’ and ‘how’
it could be fair
or if anyone cares
and now i stare blankly
cause frankly i’ve seen as much as i can bear
i just hope that you’re with me
i keep thinking “what-ifs”
like if we
if we would a’ put a foot in another road
what if i never said jack and held back
would it lead you back
to the same place to meet with the same fate?
never to come back

[chorus]

slip away
fade away
everyday
inside my brain
slip away
fade away
everyday
inside my brain

[verse 2]

would you be back
to help me through
like you truly do?
or did do
now i’m sitting through your service
with a priest who acts like you’re someone else i never knew
and everyone you ever met
or said one word to
acting like you and them were best friends
like it makes them cool
to know someone who got shot
and they can’t construe
what it really means to someone like me
who knew you through and through
to see you slew
in that house
on the ground
in the back room
it haunts my dreams
to see your lifeless eyes looking straight through me

[chorus]

slip away
fade away
everyday
inside my brain
slip away
fade away
everyday
inside my brain

[verse 3]

it hurt my soul
and my heart hardened
soon as i saw your brains and your blood on the carpet
stained forever
not on the floor but in my mind
i’d be lying if i ever said i never tried to forget you
used to wonder
if i’d ever be sane again
my therapist explains:
“take these pills and the pain will fade”
but how could i replace you
with a drug?
lord knows i tried
i tried
i tried to hide behind chemicals and lies and denial
arming myself with a vile
of morphine
anything to stop the vile dreams

[chorus]

slip away
fade away
everyday
inside my brain
slip away
fade away
everyday
inside my brain

[verse 4]

contrary to popular consensus
time does not heal if i can trust my senses
cause i feel the pain
no matter how many paink!llers ingested
i guess it just don’t k!ll it (you just can’t k!ll me)
and i’m really w-lly-nilly
it still hasn’t k!lled me
and i’m really not stronger, still weak
i still haven’t waked
i prefer dreams and nightmares
cause i can pretend that someone might care
if i wake, i weep
the stakes are high when i’m awake
but not when i’m asleep
and i know you’re probably tired of hearing all my whining
so i decided to tell it to the people in my mind
but not a friend i find
walking blindly
and i can’t stop these thoughts
burning in my head
tossing and turning in my bed
popping pills
oxycontin and percocet
but the hurt does not prefer to rest
remember the best
and forget the worst
carrying your coffin to the hurst

[chorus/outro]

slip away
fade away
everyday
inside my brain
slip away
fade away
everyday
inside my brain
slip away
fade away
everyday
inside my brain
slip away
fade away
everyday
inside my brain
