lyrics

I always knew deep inside
That it would end like this
Alone and without accomplishment

The gate is closing
I must sleep outside the walls
Exposed to night dangers

Chained to a domicile
I wish I could escape
But I'd be at the open sea
Without a vest or a raft

As time passes, everyone leaves
It's not to be condemned
But reaching out and connecting
Is both difficult and taboo

All the doors are closing
How will I stay alive?
I don't want to be a parasite

If only one could sleep forever
No pain or chance of failure
I can't see a better way out

All my tears seem so fake
Just the crocodile's hypocrisy
My throat is parched
My lips are dry
I will never feel free and entire

The gate is closing
I must sleep outside the walls
Exposed to night dangers

All the doors are closing
How will I stay alive?
I don't want to be a parasite

If only one could sleep forever
No pain or chance of failure
I can't see a better way out

All my tears seem so fake
Just the crocodile's hypocrisy
My throat is parched
My lips are dry
I will never feel free and entire

The gate is closing
I must sleep outside the walls
Exposed to night dangers

All the doors are closing
How will I stay alive?
I don't want to be a parasite
