[Verse 1]

I hear red and white and sirens

Like thunder and lightning under my eyelids

Let me die quiet

In terrified silence I couldn't find before

Wish I could let go

But everything echoes, everything echoes

Stuck in this dead zone

Memories get so frozen inside


[Pre-Chorus]

And if I could get away

I wouldn't be here

Live another day

And never see fear

Everything is fine

You're in denial

Occupy your mind

Until you spiral down, down, down, down, down

Down, down

And I can tell that you can still hear the sirens


[Chorus]

And I try to tell the truth

But it never comes out the right way when

I'm lying next to you

And I always hold back what I say

When these sirens cut into my lifelines

Never found the right time

To tell you anything at all

All I hear is


[Verse 2]

I'm on the highway

There's nowhere to escape

From everything you told me

When you set the record straight

And this is my blame

That I could never take

Cause I've been disingenuous

Since 1998

And I survived pain

With demons I create

The vices I rely on

Keep reality at bay

And I deny faith

But I swear I used to pray

That we would reconcile

From the fires that we made


[Pre-Chorus]

And if I could get away

I wouldn't be here

Live another day

And never see fear

Everything is fine

You're in denial

Occupy your mind

Until you spiral down, down, down, down, down

Down, down

And I can tell that you can still hear the sirens


[Bridge]

I let this get inside my head

Time and time again

In every epilogue I've read

Seems like they never find the end


[Chorus]

And I try to tell the truth

But it never comes out the right way when

I'm lying next to you

And I always hold back what I say

When these sirens cut into my lifelines

Never found the right time

To tell you anything at all


[Chorus]

And I try to tell the truth

But it never comes out the right way when

I'm lying next to you

And I always hold back what I say

When these sirens cut into my lifelines

Never found the right time

To tell you anything at all


[Outro]

All I hear is sirens

Sirens

Screaming out my name

All I hear is sirens

Sirens

Screaming out my name

All I hear is sirens

Sirens

Screaming out my name

All I hear is sirens

Sirens

Screaming out my name

All I hear is sirens
