Steven Wilson - People Who Eat Darkness lyrics

I live in the flat next door And I can hear you f** your girlfriend through the wall But the only thing we share Is the slightest nod as we’re pa**ing on the stairs But behind the closed doors The bees were buzzing Inciting me to war You’re penitent maybe But it’s really not your fault you fail to see We who eat the darkness We who eat the darkness I take out the trash at night And on Thursday’s I go shopping for supplies I walk my son to school And I seem to have the same problems as you But what you will see Are the threads of what I want you to believe And all that you hold dear Is under threat from someone all too near We who eat the darkness We who eat the darkness Well you lost control And your kids became confused Among the powder kegs With nothing left to lose So now your chickens Are coming home to roost Do you think the fight is real? Do you feel my teeth are snapping at your heels? You who tell me how to live And you feed me with your poison ’til I’m sick Pretend that we’re not here If you look the other way we disappear We want you to ignore The people who eat darkness from next door We who eat the darkness We who eat the darkness We who eat the darkness We who eat the darkness Well you lost control And your kids became confused Among the powder kegs With nothing left to lose So now your chickens Are coming home to roost
