This is a song about watching someone you really love go through a really difficult time in their life and the helplessness of trying to understand and help the best you can.
lyrics
Verse 1:
Hard to give back the words she shoved down your throat.
Harder now to keep them down, but still you can't let them go.
And she won't know, but doesn't it show?
She Gives you the feast you need. A feast of opportunity, but you won't eat 'cause you're too busy, choking on words that she didn't mean.
You won't be well 'till she can tell.
Chorus:
I can't find you anymore. Where'd you go, what's left behind?
You've emptied to your soul. Don't you know that you're so blind
if you can't see the beauty that has defined
your state of mind.
Lost in your own design.
You're hypnotized.
Verse 2:
I try to ask and understand whats going on inside your head.
I think the pain's beneath your chest, but you won't say I can only guess.
I wish you knew, I'm here for you.
Chorus:
I can't find you anymore. Where'd you go, what's left behind?
You've emptied to your soul. Don't you know that you're so blind
if you can't see the beauty that has defined
your state of mind.
Lost in your own design.
You're hypnotized.
Bridge:
You've lost your smile, you've lost your food.
It won't be long 'till we lost you too.
You're in a trance, you're hypnotized.
This thing is eating you alive.
Chorus:
I can't find you anymore. Where'd you go, what's left behind?
You've emptied to your soul. Don't you know that you're so blind
if you can't see the beauty that has defined
your state of mind.
Lost in your own design.
You're hypnotized.
