Detour Lyrics

So I divert my thoughts like a detour

Until I'm ready to face them

I divert my thoughts like a detour

Until I'm ready to face them

Lost in this sea of raging waters

Left here struggling to not go under

Searching for that life preserver

My final safeguard from all the monsters

My pen now a weapon against that essence

The thoughts in my mind ever so present

My attempt at aggression as they start to threaten

Forcing me down as sound starts to deaden

I'm falling, drowning, can someone save me

The roadmap in my mind is never-ending

Searching for a vision, or some diversion

Distract my thoughts till I can face them

La, la da da, la da da, la da da

La, la da da, la da da, la da da

Dragged deep down under the water

As all those voices start to conjure

Up a spell that forces me to ponder

The places I've endured as I start to wonder

Where I've gone, Who I've been, What I am

Because the man under skin is crawling again

Crawling again, Crawling again

I'm falling, drowning, can someone save me

The roadmap in my mind is never-ending

Searching for a vision, or some diversion

Distract my thoughts till I can face them

La, la da da, la da da, la da da

La, la da da, la da da, la da da

Diversion, immersion, a different version

Of the man walking around on the surface

Diversion, immersion, a different person

Who lives breathes and dies on the surface

I'm falling, drowning, can someone save me

The roadmap in my mind is never-ending

Searching for a vision, or some diversion

Distract my thoughts till I can face them

La, la da da, la da da, la da da

La, la da da, la da da, la da da
