Severance

I’m looking up
I’m looking down
I don’t know where I am

No sign of light
Nothing to make me think
That it’s all right

No recollection
No memories
Of any tension

Can’t catch my breath
It seems that I was only
Left for dead

I was buried alive
Have I gone before my time?
But you know I’m gonna come back
I’ll come back to you, baby any way

I’m getting out
I’ll find my way
If I have to shout

Who could have done this?
Who left me here without
A last kiss

Was it Johnny Lee?
That man was always
Out to get me

He’ll get his and I’ll get mine
Karma’s my friend
She’s always on my side

I was buried alive
Have I gone before my time?
But you know I’m gonna find him
And haunt him every day

Even if I die
I’ll find a way
To make a grown man cry

To my love
I’ll watch over you
From above

I was buried alive
Have I gone before my time?
But you know I’m gonna come back
I’ll come back to you, baby any way

You made me cry just like Jesus Christ had cried before
I never knew you
The shades blocked the shine
And I’ll live in doubt forevermore
I never knew you

And I'll never go back to you
And if I did, I’d deceive myself
And my hindsight has made everything clear
You confirmed my worries and my greatest fear

You made me cry just like Jesus Christ had cried before
I never knew you
The shades blocked the shine
And I’ll live in doubt forevermore
I never knew you

It was more than just a fever dream
When I woke up, I could see through the screen
Ahhh

You made me cry just like Jesus Christ had cried before
I never knew you
The shades blocked the shine
And I’ll live in doubt forevermore
I never knew you

Don’t ever bow to anyone
Don’t live your life that way
You have to focus on yourself
You got something to say

And if you bow to anyone
Just don’t forget your worth
Cause we all come from the same place
We’ll all return to the earth

Whenever you feel overwhelmed
Take a pause and breathe
Cause when your life has no pain
You’ll lose your humanity

Don’t ever bow to anyone
Don’t live your life that way
You have to focus on yourself
You got something to say

And if you bow to anyone
Just don’t forget your worth
Cause we all come from the same place
We’ll all return to the earth

When you are so oh so concerned
With what everybody thinks
That you forget how to live
And you forget to eat

Don’t ever bow to anyone
Don’t live your life that way
You have to focus on yourself
You got something to say

And if you bow to anyone
Just don’t forget your worth
Cause we all come from the same place
We’ll all return to the earth
Ahhh

You never knew when to let it go
You never knew when to go with the flow
Like Marco Polo, I want to sail away
Just let me sail away

If I could read the script inside your head
I might think that I'd be better off dead
But even then I don't wanna sail away
Don't wanna sail away

You never knew...

Of all the people that came into my life
Never have I met someone so filled with strife
Even when I feel like we're on the same page
We're not even on the same stage

You never knew...

I’ve visited the place so many times before
Like clockwork, you always come knocking on my door
But this time, I’m not gonna let you stay
God bless you as you go your way

You never gave the slightest hint that last day
Maybe you knew exactly what we would say
Hard to believe you really wanted it this way
You always had a choice

Was it an ill-timed act of sheer desperation?
Or a quick way in which to end your frustration
Was it the plan you’d had for many a day?
A split decision you regret to this day

If only there were an alternate world, not here and not there
Where those who don’t want to die but don’t want to live can escape
Were the walls just closing in and there was no other way?
Is there anything we could have done to convince you to stay?

This empty feeling, it continues to grow
Questions but answers that we never can know
If there were just some way to give you a voice
So you could tell us why you made the saddest choice

The saddest choice
The saddest choice
The saddest choice
