No Eden - Cause & Defect Lyrics

I staggered slowly from the darkness
For the first time I could see
Three years spent thinking that
It wasn't meant for me
You don't know me if you think that
All you see is all I am
Three cheers for nothingness
It's all you gave to me

Why is everyone around me f*cking miserable?
It doesn't make sense to me
Either everybody's blind or invisible
I'll guess I'll just wait and see

You're pretending like you know it all
And I should be wanting more
Instead I'm spending mine defending yours
While you claim it's all my fault

Fighting loneliness and sadness
Like a shadow chasing you
Three tears, all colourless
I can see straight through
And yet you tell me I'm still young
And I can't know of what I speak
Your fear of nothingness it's clear as day to me

Everyone around me's f*cking miserable
It doesn't make sense to me
Either everybody's blind or invisible
I'll guess I'll just wait and see

You're pretending like you know it all
And I should be wanting more
Instead I'm spending mine defending yours
While you claim it's all my fault

I stagger slowly through the darkness
For the first time I can see
You don't know me if you think that
I'm the failure that you seem to believe

You're pretending like you know it all
And I should be wanting more
Instead I'm spending mine defending yours
While you claim it's all my fault
