Dead History - Reach Lyrics

black out, reach out
I'm reaching for anything my hands can feel
I sigh once I've realized
that everything I touch can feel so real
and I can't stand by waiting for your sign
it makes me feel like I'm late for something
even when I'm right on time
I'm still here, I'm not running, toed to your line
it makes me feel like I've failed at one thing
surrendering to what you've assigned
the only obstacle that's in my way
is not listening to what you have to say
so I close my ears to tune your voice right out
but you refuse to not be heard so you just scream and shout
until I give in again
wrought out and washed out
I'm left in the dark again without a light
weak kneed, and dead eyed aching for vision, begging you for sight
I've been wrong too many times
one foot in front and 10 years behind
in and out of phase
between decades and days

black out, reach out
I'm reaching for anything my hands can feel
I sigh once I've realized
that everything I touch can feel so real
and I can't stand by waiting for your sign
it makes me feel like I'm late for something
even when I'm right on time
I'm still here, I'm not running, toed to your line
it makes me feel like I've failed at one thing
surrendering to what you've assigned
the only obstacle that's in my way
is not listening to what you have to say
so I close my ears to tune your voice right out
but you refuse to not be heard so you just scream and shout
until I give in again
wrought out and washed out
I'm left in the dark again without a light
weak kneed, and dead eyed aching for vision, begging you for sight
I've been wrong too many times
one foot in front and 10 years behind
in and out of phase
between decades and days
