Hands Like Houses - A Tale Of Outer Surburbia Lyrics

Pry the darkness from my eyes
Divided, let the light seep in
Trees devoid of branches and hollow hives
An 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, and 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?
(This doesn't look like home
This doesn't look like home)
I'll tear apart the town
Then sleep, and sleep alone
(This doesn't look like home
This doesn't look like home)

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 till 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?
(This doesn't look like home
This doesn't look like home)
I'll tear apart the town
Then sleep, and sleep alone
(This doesn't look like home
This doesn't look like home)
