Marching at steady speed
White noise is all they need
Try to listen carefully
You're under their control
It comes and goes in waves
And takes your breath away
Notice how you choke under weight
Suffocate
But they won't go away
No matter how hard you try
These voices in your head
They poison your mind
Breathless, breathing toxic air
Sleepless, falling in despair
But they don't care
Oh they won't care
The world is crashing down
Hey, did you see the light
The end of it all
Won't even know it happened
Until it's your call
Floating on a cloud
Oh wouldn't it be nice
The windmills passing by
But you pay the price
So sitting, wasting time
It seems like such a crime
Before you know it, careful
You'll be buried alive
Marching at steady speed
White noise is all they need
Try to listen carefully
You're under their control
Blank eyes but they can see
The frail voice that hides between
These white lies of destiny
Still under their control
Sometimes I wish
I could stay awake all night long
Chasing starfish
Or soaring with doves in the sky
Tell me a story
Of a long forgotten land
Heroes, glory
Take their fates into their own hand
