Garden State Lyrics

Senses Fail

The garden state,
has never looked so pitiful and grey
as I awake
to the garbage men today,
I hope they take all of my old mistakes
'cause I can't seem to shake them on my own

My head, it spins
when I look at the mirror and spit at
the man I see with anchors for his eyes
I build my castles up in the sky
so when it rains they melt away with shame

(chorus)Here I am
looking down at the bottom of the glasses
it's all my fault that I need a sign
like shooting stars to help connect the dots
and turn my cuts into scars

All of my fears
are kept in check by the medicine I take
all of the guards are scared theres rumors of dissent
There will be a riot in my heart soon,
it wants to be beneath the open sky

(chorus)

My regrets are
what keep me still alive
I need to make up for all the lies
x2

(chorus)x2

My regrets are
what keep me still alive
I need to make up for all the lies
