Distract Me Songtext
von Dearest

They always tell me I′m not the only one
But then the lights go out and i feel so alone
Day's overwhelming, I never see the sun
It turns out tragedy′s the only love I know
And now I see, there is no cure for me
So why do I proceed
Down into the deepest corners of my mind
I'll never be at peace

A sickness is burning
Into the roots of my soul
And I deserve it
It comes with no warning
And seeps beyond the surface
Spend most nights paralyzed
And every task is a new mountain before me
Can't cut ties, can′t deny
This battle never ends

This battle never ends


What have I become
Begging for something
Anything to make me feel like
This is where I belong
These ghosts will haunt me till the day I die

When I shut my eyes
I see all that I could be
If you weren′t part of me
When will you let me be
In another life
Of sound body and the mind
I am finally free from this agony

Another method to control this madness
Another medicine to work its magic
Numb and collected, I repeat this cycle
Seeking, never reaching the end
I've grown resentful waiting for a saviour
Still I′m disgusted by my own behaviour
When every waking moment's filled with sorrow
I don′t care to see tomorrow


A sickness is burning
Into the roots of my soul
And I deserve it
It comes with no warning
And seeps beyond the surface
Spend most nights paralyzed
And every task is a new mountain before me
Can't cut ties, can′t deny
This battle never ends
