Hands Like Houses - Release (A Tale of Outer Suburbia) lyrics

[Hands Like Houses - Release A Tale of Outer Suburbia lyrics]

Pry the darkness from my eyes
Divided, let the light seep in
Trees devoid of branches and hollow hives
Endless black and empty beds
It's not the same, something's changed
I never used to be able to see past the trees
A thousand unfamiliars are lying
Thick on the air and I can't breathe

Is our skin to keep the world
Out or our bodies in?
This doesn't look like home This
Doesn't look like home
Is our skin to keep the world
Out or our bodies in?
I'll tear apart the town then sleep
Then sleep alone

If I'm a flame, I'm a forest fire
Speaking savage tongues as I
Emerge from the hills i am an avalanche
I am unchained, I'm awoken
I'll unleash hell so I roar
Pin back my ears and stone by stone
I'll tear it all, I'll tear it apart

Is our skin to keep the world
Out or our bodies in?
This doesn't look like home This
Doesn't look like home
Is our skin to keep the world
Out or our bodies in?
I'll tear apart the town then sleep
Then sleep alone

I've lost faith, the forest's changed
My stomach's empty, I'm feeling faint
I've lost heart, the forest's scarred
I hear no birds, just TVs, and cars
I've lost faith, the forest's changed
My stomach's empty, I'm feeling faint
I've lost sight, the forest's died
The brambles are bare, and I'm hollow inside
Each breath rattles like dice in my chest
Each breath gambled, unwinding 'til death

Is our skin to keep the world
Out or our bodies in?
This doesn't look like home This
Doesn't look like home
Is our skin to keep the world
Out or our bodies in?
I'll tear apart the town then sleep
Then sleep alone
