Turning the Screw

[Verse 1]
I heard about how you're gone for good
I took it better than I thought I would
I am alive and awake
and I have no memories
Everyday I want to disappear
I want to be in a coma for the rest of the year
I want to watch my friends embrace my enemies

[Pre Chorus]
All around in the daylight
Everybody looks so much older
I was afraid you got too far along
I could see you in the distance
Lookin over your shoulder
And I could tell you were already gone

[Chorus]
I turn around and another 2 years slip away
I have a dream about a ticking clock that's
Getting faster and
At night when the day is dead
I think about what I would've said
and Am I gonna get a chance to go back
Or am I turning the screw

[Verse 2]
I know you really wanna go it alone
You tell me you can never go back home
I know you talk to the mirror when you don't want to look at me
Do you remember what you had before
And can you tell it isn't there anymore
And can you see that you are what you did not want to be

[Pre Chorus]
All around in the daylight
Everybody looks so much older
I was afraid you got too far along
I could see you in the distance
Lookin over your shoulder
And I could tell you were already gone

[Chorus]
I turn around and another 2 years tick away
Have a dream about a ticking clock that's Getting faster and
At night when the day is dead
I think about what I would've said and Am
I gonna get a chance to go back
Or am I turning the screw

I turn around and another 2 years tick away
Have a dream about a ticking clock that's Getting faster and
At night when the day is dead
I think about what I would've said and Am
I gonna get a chance to go back
Or am I turning the screw
