A shadow in the darkness, a whisper of a dream
I know it's far away, but there's a hope, 'cause I believe
A slowly fading memory, an underwater scream
I know it's far away, but there is peace for me

I saw a God, I saw a God
Offering me perfection
In a neon, in a neon
In a neon reflection
He pulled me awake, as swift as he came
His wings took flight, never saw him again
And now, I find myself alone, left to wonder
If the mannequins could speak
Surely, they would use their lungs and scream

The cogs have begun to spin, a mite tunneled in my skin
It's hard to be whole, I'm mending a soul that I had broken
Or should I rejoin the rest and sleep through my innocence?
Being a human is more of a burden than I was hoping
Than I was hoping

I saw a God, I saw a God
I saw a God, but he looked and turned away
I'm pathetic and cold, an orphan alone
In the open
I begged him to stay with me in the grey
Inanimate like a bird in a cage
But now I have no doubt at all
Yeah, I know that if the mannequins could speak
Surely, they would kick and fucking scream

The cogs have begun to spin, a mite tunneled in my skin
It's hard to be whole, I'm mending a soul that I had broken
Or should I rejoin the rest and sleep through my innocence?
Being a human is more of a burden than I was hoping

The sky cracked beneath my feet
Splitting at the seams
A shadow in the darkness
A whisper of a dream

A shadow in the darkness, a whisper of a dream
I know it's far away, but there's a hope, 'cause I believe
A slowly fading memory, an underwater scream
I know it's far away, but there is peace for me
