Peel Lyrics

I've been peeling away the layers

Digging to the center

Trying to find some common thread to follow

Turning to face the mirrors

In deepening reflection

But all the answers seem to be so hollow

Face buried

Hands clawing at the sand

I've built myself this fortress

But now the walls are cracking

I've been sifting through the pieces

Searching for a pattern

Trying to find some hidden sense of purpose

Going down blind alleys

Has me putting out my eyes

'Cause I don't have the will to see what's there

Face covered

I'm shutting out the world

Retreating in this shell

And waiting for the blackness

[Chorus:]

Would I know peace of mind?

Is it true?

Would you know what you'd find

If you searched for it, too?

What you do depends on you

So explore

What I'll be depends on me

And what's there at the core

I look into my eyes

And nothing gazes back

Shadows without substance

Fading into black

[Chorus]
