lyrics

Turn around and don't look back
They won't miss you, I tell myself that
Life isn't a fairytale
No one knows what lies beyond the trail
Paint a picture you want to see
But it's always too far to reach
The ending I can never tell
Spinning on an abandoned carousel

Standing still throughout all the seasons
I'm out of touch but it's for a reason
Hiding in my sanctuary
Away from the world
I'm so lonely but I like being alone
You can call me but I never pick up the phone
Hiding in my sanctuary
I know it ain't easy for the ones who love me

Run away and hide somewhere safe
I'm not strong enough for this hate
The world is a cruel cruel place
And I have lost all faith

I crave for that human touch
But emotions they get me rough
I'm a shell of who I used to be
Heart soul hollow and empty
My anxiety keeps me up at night
Small seeds grow into parasites
So caught up in the thrill of taking flight
You forgot the risk of falling
The value of life is now tied to cash
Strung by numbers till we turn to ash
Nightmares disguised as dreams
Torn apart right at the seams
So misunderstood like Socrates
So misunderstood like Joan of Arc
Tied to these stakes but I'm too dazed right now to care about my fate
The messages have stopped coming in
I'm now just a distant memory
Erased from the world, now no one can ever find me
Someday maybe the mystery will be solved
Like Earhart, Ambrose, and H. Holt
Carry my intentions through the wind calling
This is my final bidding

Standing still throughout all the seasons
I'm out of touch but it's for a reason
Hiding in my sanctuary
Away from the world
I'm so lonely but I like being alone
You can call me but I never pick up the phone
Hiding in my sanctuary
I know it ain't easy for the ones who love me

Yeah yeah yeah
Yeah yeah yeah
I'm in my sanctuary
I'm in my sanctuary

Standing still throughout all the seasons
I'm out of touch but it's for a reason
Hiding in my sanctuary
Away from the world
I'm so lonely but I like being alone
You can call me but I never pick up the phone
Hiding in my sanctuary
I know it ain't easy for the ones who love me
(I'm in my sanctuary)
