Turning the Screw Songtext
von Generationals

I heard about how you′re gone for good
I took it better than I thought I would
I am alive and awake and I have no memories

Every day I wanna disappear
I want to be in a coma for the rest of the year
I want to watch my friends embrace my enemies

All around in the daylight
Everybody looks so much older
I was afraid you got too far along
I could see you in the distance
Looking over your shoulder
And I could tell you were already gone

I turn around and another two years slip away
I have a dream about a ticking clock that's getting faster
At night when the day is dead
I think about what I would′ve said
Am I gonna get a chance to go back
Or am I turning the screw


I know you really want to go it alone
Tell me you can never go back home
I know you talk to the mirror
When you don't want to look at me
Do you remember what you had before
Can you tell it isn't there anymore
And can you see that you are what you did not want to be

All around in the daylight
Everybody looks so much older
I was afraid you got too far along
I could see you in the distance
Looking over your shoulder
And I could tell you were already gone

I turn around and another two years slip away
I have a dream about a ticking clock that′s getting faster
At night when the day is dead
I think about what I would′ve said
Am I gonna get a chance to go back
Or am I turning the screw

I turn around and another two years slip away
I have a dream about a ticking clock that's getting faster
At night when the day is dead
I think about what I would′ve said
Am I gonna get a chance to go back
Or am I turning the screw
