If Not For Me - Ghost Lyrics

Imagine every waking minute comes closing in around you as you watch those draining seconds fall hopelessly to the ground. This is the anthem of a lost generation.
The more things seem to change, the more they stay the same. My life is dwindling, a pattern, an empty routine.
And when you see my face, no, you never seem to recognize the pain. Though I've tried to speak, oh so selfishly, I've been silent for too long. And I'd cast it all aside to never see the sunrise again. Let me wash away.
May we die before we wake? Like ghosts, could we hopelessly sleep in the rain? I can't think straight. It's all in my head, so tell me that I'm to blame.
What will it take to let the earth surround me and open at my feet? We're miles away from understanding what this world has left for me.
Give me a reason to end it all.
May we die before we wake? Like ghosts, could we hopelessly sleep in the rain? I can't think straight. It's all in my head, so tell me that I'm to blame. How I long to wash away. The sirens are helplessly calling my name as the voices say, it's all in your head. So tell me that I'm to blame.
Tell me that I am to blame.
Let me wash away.
May we die before we wake? Like ghosts, could we hopelessly sleep in the rain? I can't think straight. It's all in my head, so tell me that I'm to blame. How I long to wash away. The sirens are helplessly calling my name. The voices say, it's all in your head. So tell me that I'm to blame.
Imagine every waking minute comes closing in around you as you watch those draining seconds fall hopelessly.
