These blue veins pump for something other than what's mine
Inside the light they open eyes
Pretend for nothing that they're scarlet
But they bleed lies
The oxygen flees from my head
An ache that's pounding stronger than the heart
That's supposedly fine
Is this what you call fine
There's a cold wind running down the sun
In the middle of July
But you'll never see the stars ask why
Yet everybody's wondering what's wrong here
And it's all in my mind
But I'll never tell why
So don't hold to your chest and hold it in
Let go or you'll be six feet under
In the sea of glittered mysteries
You don't know what you're speaking
So shut it inside
Shut it up or forever be misdefined
And it still runs through my veins
And it still runs misbehaved
And I don't know if I'm dreaming in this state
Alive, arise
Alive, deny
It's not the pulse I'm making
But a moniter I've tied to a memory made up
So that I could cover my eyes
And listen to the beating
Oh you don't know what it takes to be alive
