Emotional Void Fraction

All the dark days blur the boundaries of night
Drowning out the noise until it's monotone and quiet
You knew that it was wrong 'cause it never felt right
But you gave in anyway

If there's no hope then you'll never have to care
Never take advantage if there's nothing really there
Everybody copes because everybody's scared
But you're cowering in fear
When you let someone else steer

When you're this far removed and have gotten this out of control
You'll never make it on your own

You jump ship at the first sight of going down
'cause there's no chance this could possibly end up your way
So hold on the wreckage that lingers on
Or let go of what's left of it and drown
Now you're trapped by the memories you can't get around
'cause you remember everything

I hope in time you'll come to see things straight
What once was sour can become sweet
Because you know you can survive
If you at least pretend to try
I've heard this before but it hurts just to hear it again

I hope in time you'll live with your regrets
'cause you can stay afloat or stay in bed
So when you see me hanging on
It's not that memories are gone
They're greasing the gears and pushing me forward through this
'cause I remember everything

You jump ship at the first sight of going down
'cause there's no chance this could possibly end up your way
So hold on the wreckage that lingers on
Or let go of what's left of it and drown
you're now trapped, the memories are holding you down
'cause I remember everything
