lyrics
Anguished faces in the windows,
Painful truths in every wall,
Serpents writhing on the glasswork,
There's a wolf pack at your door,
These have all become reminders that you are truly alone,
Trapped here shivering in a snake pit with your own face looking on.
You are trapped here on an island,
In a fish tank in a zoo,
There are crowds sat in the bleachers,
Everyone is watching you,
You are starving, you are naked, you are watching what you do,
You don't recognise the faces but all of them know you.
You know you'd love to get out,
You know you'd love to move,
But you've got no one to go with,
Every chance you take you lose,
You're just hopping between islands, change the scenery at best,
You are trapped in your own body, you are different from the rest
Painful truths in every wall,
Serpents writhing on the glasswork,
There's a wolf pack at your door,
These have all become reminders that you are truly alone,
Trapped here shivering in a snake pit with your own face looking on.
You are trapped here on an island,
In a fish tank in a zoo,
There are crowds sat in the bleachers,
Everyone is watching you,
You are starving, you are naked, you are watching what you do,
You don't recognise the faces but all of them know you.
You know you'd love to get out,
You know you'd love to move,
But you've got no one to go with,
Every chance you take you lose,
You're just hopping between islands, change the scenery at best,
You are trapped in your own body, you are different from the rest
