Despised Icon - Quarantine lyrics

I have done it again
I could not avoid the soft comforting
Touch of your presence any longer

Increasingly isolated
I slowly find relief in silence
I sense the spirited child in
Me gradually letting go
Its golden smile grows weary
With every disappointment
I miss the old days and I
Know you feel the same way
How can something this special
Become so distant?

The exhaustion of boredom has taken it's toll
Wash these walls and and
Throw away the ashtray feel it coming
I've slept away too many days take me back
Take me back to a place
Where everything makes sense again


I never meant for things to turn out this way

No matter what the outcome is
The good times will always remain as intact
As a static little perfectly drawn portrait
Holding on to them seems like the only thing
Pure enough to drive me at times

Increasingly isolated
I slowly find relief in silence
I sense the spirited child in
Me gradually letting go
Its golden smile grows weary
With every disappointment
I miss the old days and I
Know you feel the same way
How can something so special fade
As time goes by?
