Iron Curtains is a song in English
You keep it to yourself
Cause it can be just what you want
But then you show it to the world
And now it's turned to something else
Who needs you anymore
Petty says they don't quite understand
To prove yourself's a waste
You're better off living your talents
No one cares as much as you do
Your mouth is full of pins
That are pulling through the twine
Just to seal off your final sentence
Actions become pointless
By a mis sweep of your neighbour's brush
I can try and keep back up the pace
But then again, oh
How is it they would know!
Rocky moons are silent bowls that hold in all your poems
So no one can hear you scream
(So no one can hear you scream)
It wasn't for the view
I came here for the silence
But you came and made it loud
(But you came and made it loud)
So, we're trekking through the rust and snow
My heartbeat shifts and starts to slow
I keep on trying to be myself
But I think I'm someone different now
That's how I know I don't know what's in it
I've stepped off the bloody road, can I get back on it?
Or am I on it and I just can't see the rest?
I need that minute please
Where no one wants me and I'm the only fool I know
Just speed up, or slow down
I want to still stand
When you take away the one thing that's mine
Once upon a time, I was the red
The shade, the fist, and the bite
Scurry and run
Before my knife will
Puncture the livers of god
These frozen bars, they rust my heart
I won't pivot my time
To a different life
You keep it to yourself
Cause it can be just what you want
But then you show it to the world
And it turns to something else
Who needs you anymore
Petty says they don't quite understand
Once upon a time, I was the red
The shade, the fist, and the bite
So we're trekking through the rust and snow
My heartbeat shifts and starts to slow
I keep on trying to be myself
But I think I'm someone different now
That's how I know I don't know what's in it
I've stepped off the bloody road, can I get back on it?
Or am I on it and I just can't see the rest?
Stay open one more second
So I can finish my phrase, wait
I need everyone to see the worlds in my head
I need everyone to know why they're made so I don't quite feel insane
But it still has to be mine
But it still has to be mine!
Once upon a time, I was the red
The shade, the fist, and the bite
Scurry and run
Before my knife will
Puncture the livers of god
These frozen bars, they rust my heart
I won't pivot my time
To a different life
You keep it to yourself
Cause it can be just what you want
But then you show it to the world
And now it's turned to something else
Who needs you anymore
Petty says they don't quite understand
Once upon a time, I was the red
The shade, the fist, and the bite
So, we're trekking through the rust and snow
My heartbeat shifts and starts to slow
I keep on trying to be myself
But I think I'm someone different now
That's how I know I don't know what's in it
I've stepped off the bloody road, can I get back on it?
Or am I on it and I just can't see the rest?
I'm not even sad, I'm just kind of hopeless
I'm not even broke, I'm just kind of reckless
It gets kind of lonely, trying to be yourself
But I guess that's great
If you're really yourself, you'll never relate
But if you change who you are
Then it's all just a fake
The only crowd, is me alone
No one will ever see what's on the inside
The worlds, the plans, the ways to save their lives
I'll be chasing the rainbow, to the end of my time
It's not alright, but that's what it is
Royals Cruscid, you're being given a life sentence
