Clarity Lyrics - A Nervous Smile - Defeat The Low

It makes a lot more sense to be slapped in the face 

With the truth than to die from a lie 

It makes a lot more sense to ask questions 

Open your mouth and be fed 

Than to keep it closed and just starve to death 

All these dreams come rushing back to play 

When the sickness dissipates 

Endless nights of sweat and cold Illusions take the stage Put it off, is it really me conjuring these things 

I may never understand the things 

I see after I've fallen asleep 

This is something I want, this is something I need 

To extinguish a fire that I will no longer feed 

Because I have burned in the fire, yes I have burned in that fire 

Just to prove that I am a man, all to no avail 

Because in the ashes is stand 

All to no avail, because in the ashes I stand 

All these dreams come rushing back to play 

When the sickness dissipates 

Endless nights of sweat and cold Illusions take the stage Put it off, is it really me conjuring these things I may never understand the things I see after I've fallen asleep
