lyrics

Two notes in different keys
Crossing at the same time,

And no one can cure your disease,
The dissonance that plagues your mind.

It's a violent noise,
The resounding crash as the night claims us both.
In a city I'm confound
By all the cars and streets and sounds
That sing a symphony of only wrong notes.

Can you hear me loud and clearly?

The beat of train station drums are filling up your lungs,
And you're gasping for cleaner air.

Drowning in your own diseased imagination
Where I refuse to disappear.

It's a violent noise,
The resounding crash as the night claims us both.
In a city I'm confound
By all the cars and streets and sounds
That sing a symphony of only wrong notes.

Can you hear me loud and clearly?
