Umbra - The Northern

Well I can’t remember the last time I woke up without reaching for a pill

The bottle;

it calls to me and somehow I find it even when I can’t pay my bills

And I’ve spent some mornings beside perfect strangers whose names never rang a

bell

The bottle controls me, I’m helplessly wandering in my own personal hell

What do you see when you look in the mirror?

Cause all that I see is a fake, a fraud

And when you’ve realized you’ve lost all your purpose

You can’t keep doing this night after night

This isn’t me, I don’t

Even feel the beating in my chest anymore

The bottle helps me sink;

Into a liquid haze, I’ll go

The devil who once perched on my shoulder now dwells inside my head

The bottle is the only thing to silence the deafening sound it spreads

Forget about all the retribution

Put aside all the tears and guilt

Deep down we’re only human

Searching for a common ground

What do you see when you look in the mirror?

Cause all that I see is a fake, a fraud

And when you’ve realized you’ve lost all your purpose

You can’t keep doing this night after night

This isn’t me, I don’t

Even feel the beating in my chest anymore

The bottle helps me sink;

Into a liquid haze, I’ll go
