Husk - Intellectual

[Verse 1]

I've felt too much and I'm turning numb

Like a worn-out knife, I've become so dull

It's easier to shut out the world and be a monster

And far harder with no armour to be human

I keep pouring myself into songs

Am I running out by living on?

I can still hear him say

'It's better to burn out than fade away'

I'm starting to waste away

A bitter sweet dance in a slow ballet

The twists and turns, they're beating me down

I'm following steps blindly

Tied down, confined to the routine

The pages turn but it's always the same

Someone give me direction

Someone give me a sign

I feel no connection just walking the line

Cause it's easier to shut out the world and be a monster

And far harder with no armour to be human

It's easier to shut out the world and be a monster

And far harder with no armour to be human

I keep pouring myself into songs

Am I running out by living on?

I can still hear him say

'It's better to burn out than fade away'

I'm starting to waste away

A bitter sweet dance in a slow ballet

The twists and turns, they're beating me down

I'm following steps blindly

Tied down, confined to the routine

The pages turn but it's always the same
