D.O.A Lyrics

I'm always on the run
From all the things I've never done
But I can never escapeFluid in my lungs
I've been treading water for so longYou burn the books you never read
Because of what you think they saidI'm not dead on arrival
Though I'm up against the ropes
So I'll stare into the darkness
Just to see how deep it goes
Neon and silhouettes
Stare at the light and not youself
Seems we don't bury our dead
We watch but we don't learnEntertained but unconcerned
And unawareYou burn the books you never read
Because of what you think they saidI'm not dead on arrival
Though I'm up against the ropes
So I'll stare into the darkness
Just to see how deep it goesWe're told to watch others live our dreams
So we all sit staring at the screens

The numbing warmth of the neon blue
Can't give me something to hold on to
I'm not dead on arrival
Though I'm up against the ropes
So I'll stare into the darkness
Just to see how deep it goes
