LYRICS

Everything is just so loud

Lost in the noise and I can’t turn it off
The chaos spreads and it’s getting louder
I run to escape but it’s never enough
It keeps chasing me and it’s erasing me again

In my head but I don’t know
Light it up and watch it go
I shut it out but it all comes back again

Everyday it takes control
Even worse when I’m alone
Can’t turn it off cause it just gets louder

So turn it off
Cause I’m losing my mind
Are the voices and these noises
All I can find

Is it real
Can I keep up the fight
When the static pushes back
And there’s nowhere to hide

(Now I’m) screaming over and over again
I just can’t stop the overstimulation
Time runs out before it ever begins
And the peace becomes a prison in the end

In my head but I don’t know
Light it up and watch it go
I shut it out but it all comes back again

Everyday it takes control
Even worse when I’m alone
Can’t turn it off cause it just gets louder

So turn it off
Cause I’m losing my mind
Are the voices and these noises

All I can find

Is it real
Can I keep up the fight
When the static pushes back
And there’s nowhere to hide

Giving up, giving in
There’s nowhere to go
Nothing helps, nothing else
Just leave me alone

So turn it off
Cause I’m losing my mind
When the static pushes back
And there’s nowhere to hide

Aaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhhh
It pulls me apart
And I can’t shut it out
The silence turns to violence in the middle of nowhere
Fading to black
Is it all over now?
Why is everything so loud?

So turn it off
Cause I’m losing my mind
Are the voices and these noises
All I can find

Is it real
Can I keep up the fight
When the static pushes back
And there’s nowhere to hide

Giving up, giving in
There’s nowhere to go
Nothing helps, nothing else
Just leave me alone

So turn it off
Cause I’m losing my mind
When the static pushes back
And there’s nowhere to hide
