Barriers Lyrics by Anathema

A Fine Day to Exit

0

Floating with nowhere to hide
Unspoken twist back inside

How did we get here
Life don't belong here

Feel like I just never tried
To find a way back to the outside
It stops me from breathing
Kills all the dreaming

Talking to you from the other side of a wall in my mind
And it's clear that you're near to me
Think I found a way to understand why I couldn't see what was happening
The fear overcame me
Took a trip on the inside, I took a trip on the inside
I try to hold on 'til this feeling is gone
Break through to the other side, need to break through to the other side
Of everything that is hurting you

I just can't lay down and die
It takes a lifetime to understand why
It seems that you're near me
But you don't seem to hear me

Talking to you from the other side of a wall in my mind
And it's clear that you're near to me
Think I found a way to understand why I couldn't see what was happening
The fear overcame me
Took a trip on the inside, I took a trip on the inside
I try to hold on 'til this feeling is gone
Break through to the other side, need to break through to the other side
Of everything 'cause this feeling is gone

Did you hear me?
