Cocoon Lyrics by Assemblage 23

Defiance

2002

[Verse 1]
Even though I know it's only chemical
These peaks and valleys are beginning to take their toll
Try to convince myself that all it takes is time
But the most derisive voice I hear is mine

[Chorus]
It opens all the scars on me
It leaves me shaken in my belief
It takes my hand just to drag me down
It makes me a stranger in the crowd
Give me isolation just for now
I feel a hard rain coming down
I promise that I will be back soon
But for now I'll return to my cocoon

[Verse 2]
There is thunder in the distance and the sky grows grey
There is lighting in the clouds in search of prey
It's not a matter of if as much as when
The clouds will break and the rainfall will begin

[Chorus]

[Verse 3]
Cracks in the chrysalis spread out like tiny snakes
Their hiss a litany of rumors and mistakes
But I'm afraid their cause is fraught with futility
There is nothing more that they can take from me

[Chorus]
