Scratching at the Surface (Acoustic)

Why can't I see, why can't I hear?

This wooden box you built of slander won't keep me inside

You look away, you ridicule

How dare you say you know me, you don't even know yourself

Why can't you cope, why can't you heal?

Do you even try to take the time to lick your wounds

I dim the light, I hide my fear

I'm trapped inside your design give me time and you’ll be mine

Your keys, my cage

Lower me down to

My grave

Your mind is stuck in a place so hollow

You think you’re heaven but you’re ground zero

Just below your halo

Is there even a sign of sorrow Is there even a sign of sorrow

Why can’t I live, why can't I breathe?

Bordered in rope and twine I’m framed now show me where to hang

I pull the plug, I disappear

Strung up strung out, I’ve got another nail for you to drive in

Your keys, my cage

Lower me down to

My grave

I just don't wanna lay here sinking

Im underground but my arms are reaching 

Your nail, my coffin

You call me dead but it's you who's rotten

Your mind is stuck in a place so hollow

You think you’re heaven but you’re ground zero

Just below your halo

Is there even a sign of sorrow

If you could open up your eyes

Buried beneath if you could only reach me

If you could see through my disguise 

You only seem to be scratching at the surface

You only seem to beScratching At The Surface

I just don't wanna lay here sinking

Im underground but my arms are reaching 

Your nail, my coffin

You call me dead but it's you who's rotten

Your mind is stuck in a place so hollow

You think you’re heaven but you’re ground zero

Just below your halo

Is there even a sign of sorrow

If you could open up your eyes

Buried beneath if you could only reach me

If you could see through my disguise 

You only seem to be scratching at the surface

You only seem to be scratching at the surface

You only seem to be scratching at the surface
