[Lyric] Prisoner (Alta View)

[Verse 1: Dominic Bucci, David Pesci]
My monsters that daydream play nicely
Though they plan my slaughter
Still haunting the way my mind wanders
(Wish I could leave it alone)
Just tell me I'm alright
Then again, you better tell me twice
So I can take myself home
And let these thoughts start to roam
Pretend this night's
The last spent bleeding through the phone
(Through the phone)

[Chorus: Dominic Bucci]
Stay home, I'm giving up 'cause it's not enough
Stay home, I'm giving up 'cause it's all I want
Take me away from the things that I can't outrun
I'm feeling erased
I feel it more with every breath I take

[Verse 2: Dominic Bucci]
The shadows grow with eyes that glow
They whisper hope, yet they aim low
And I don't want to do this anymore
Argue with the man in the mirror, who I'm not anymore
It's not comforting (It's not comforting)
To say something's wrong with me
I just want to feel better
Like the person in my dreams
Or the one right next to me
[Chorus: Dominic Bucci, David Pesci]
Stay home, I'm giving up 'cause it's not enough
Stay home, I'm giving up 'cause it's all I want
Take me away from the things that I can't outrun
I'm feeling erased
I feel it more with every breath I take

[Bridge: Dominic Bucci, David Pesci]
Where have I, where have I been? (Where have I been?)
Driving down, driving down the wrong road in my head again
Swallow that pill (Adjust how I feel)
Make it less real (Just make it ideal)
Misdiagnose me, bill and provoke me
They say, "It's all in your head" (Just leave me hopeless)
I'm feeling misread (Your words are wrapped in roses)
Prescriptions repeated, leaves me defeated

[Chorus: Dominic Bucci, David Pesci]
Stay home, I'm giving up 'cause it's not enough (Not enough)
Stay home, I'm giving up 'cause it's all I want (I'm giving up)
Take me away from the things that I can't outrun
(Take me away from the things that I can't outrun)
I run and they chase
I feel it more with every breath I take
