Solace 4 da Seeker

How dare you Tell me not to smile If the very idea of joy offends you Then stay and retch awhile I can show you my pain I can feed you my fear Until it's hard to breathe My litany of mistakes Does it make you salivate? You make me want to toll this bell Until it cracks Liberating me From your selfish need To share my lack of faith Not this time Not this me Not this time And I don't just say the wrong things I tend to scream them from the top of my lungs Must I spew hate to convince you That we're all free to be bleeding need Here: solace for the seeker Turn it up and come alive - come alive I'm just a fellow traveler In this tunnel at the end of the light Regrets I've had a few too many In this life of crime There's no need to overstate the obvious But I ain't feelin' fine As a matter of fact I ain't feelin' this room I ain't feeling much at all Why presume to love You'd all much rather push and shove Why bother to share how numb we've become? Comfortably glum Come and feel up my pain I can no longer reap this bitter harvest So I'm going against the grain. And I don't just say the wrong things I tend to scream them from the top of my lungs Must I spew hate to convince you That we're all free to be bleeding need Here: solace for the seeker Turn it up and come alive - come alive I'm just a fellow traveler In this tunnel at the end of the light
