Dead Words - Barrier

Can you hear me?

Please tell me you can hear me

Dear God I can’t be alone

I’m finally here, I’m finally here

But not a soul in sight seems to be anywhere near

I verbalize, only to be met by a pair of blank eyes

Feels like I’m wasting my breath again

Feels like I’m wasting my breath

Programmed, homogenized

Blinded by the veil of a lifetime of lies

Led by the shepherds

Into the valley of the dark

So I have come

In an attempt to illuminate

Paralyzing fear, our most deadly creation

Dissolving a shroud of self-ignorance

Bringing to light the reality of the unconscious

Our perspectives collide

Waves lost to the wind from the inside

I keep trying but I can’t break through

Dead words to deaf ears

The truth only enters as far as the mind

Is ready to hear

So can you hear me?

Tell me, can you hear me?

So can you hear me?

Oh tell me you can hear these dead words
