Petrified lyrics

Kill the lights, it’s time to hide, To hold your breath and stay inside Close the blinds and settle down, Then wallow in your tears and drown Blinded though you still can see, Cursed by mediocrity Shutting off, afraid they know; All hooked up, with nowhere to go Defiance, reliance, Stand in the shadows of the ones who fed you, Who bled you; Cry but do not make a sound, You don’t want them around; So silent, so violent. Take it in and hide the night, And know there is no end in sight Cower there until the dawn, And pray to hell they’re fucking gone So give it up for the fatal dreams, The butchured thoughts and the violent screams Sit and stare as they go to town, And wait with me for the big come down Defiance, reliance, Stand in the shadows of the ones who fed you, Who bled you; Cry but do not make a sound, You don’t want them around; So silent, so violent. Defiance, reliance, Stand in the shadows of the ones who fed you, Who bled you; Cry but do not make a sound, You don’t want them around; So silent, so violent.
