Affliction

Living in the past and make believe
Or so they tell me
Looking into those eyes from beneath
You could have fooled me
Realize the world’s not trouble and drop the bottle
Just stop the obduracy
It’s no secret you have been wronged and pushed into seclusion
Numbing memories locked inside your head continue to play
In time all those lonely nights with pain breed affliction
As the complacent saw the sun rising today
Pushed away from the family
I swear they won’t help
But maybe it’s just my naivety
You’re different with me
Realize the world’s not trouble and drop the bottle
Don’t throw this all away
It’s no secret you have been wronged and pushed into seclusion
Numbing memories locked inside your head continue to play
In time all those lonely nights with pain breed affliction
As the complacent saw the sun rising today
A bad decision never brings relief
Don’t want to think of you while you’re below my feet
It’s no secret you have been wronged and pushed into seclusion
Numbing memories locked inside your head continue to play
In time all those lonely nights with pain breed affliction
As the complacent saw the sun rising today
