Under the Pillow

[Verse 1]

Hey you

Somewhere in the mirror

What happened today with your face

Your eyes

Sank in their hollows

And the ocean of your disgrace

It’s no shame

You haven’t done what you were supposed to

And did what you didn’t want to

1-UP!

The amount of self-deception

Slowly starts killing you

Inside

You’re faced

With a new decision

Between the dawn and the day

Melting

Between the life you got used to

And something you don’t understand

I know

It demands an effort

And the pills to get rid of this pain

Not a chance

I’m sorry, Birdy

I’m your favourite voice inside your head

[Chorus]

Hey you

Rise and shine!

You must learn to stand your ground

How long can you hold your breath under the pillow?

[Verse]

You kept yourself to yourself

Day by day

Growing delusions in the blue flowerpots

Your filter bubble

On the touchscreen display

Has recommended to you

What you should want

While you’ve been watching too much daytime TV

Dreaming on demand

Your ”from tomorrow” just became ”yesterday”

Made you crawl again

Under the bed covers

[Chorus]

Hey you

Rise and shine!

You must learn to stand your ground

How long can you hold your breath under the pillow?

How long can you hold your breath under the pillow?

How long can you hold your breath under the pillow?
