ve built my own protective walls. ONE SNAP WAS ALL IT TOOK TO WRECK MY STATE OF MIND. AS I EXIT MY SLEEPING MODE, I WANT IT ALL TO REWIND. THE BUBBLE BURSTS
Pre-chorus:] It hurts! Wounds so sore! Now I'm torn Now I'm torn [Chorus:] I've been far away When I see your face My hearts burst into fire! Hearts burst
We used to care But things have changed Where joy should reign Painted lines on your face To grasp your gaze restrained So tranquil the outside rain
The city I am My alleys veins, my water nurture Nobody need stand on ceremony before my doors I am a home to you And to them Of ashes they come In sackcloth
[Instrumental]
There is a place where hindrance is dead Visions gone wild in a burning red Dream my friend Ever in rest With your head in your hands And your gaze fixed
Moral shadows dancing on these walls A surge of insight amidst the fall To know this commonwealth again The spectre growing ever tall And no creed remains
Shifting eyes turn with shade Slave, a false entity I saw their hearts flood with ashen dusk Liars, scorn of foul delight Forgive me father, for I am
What is the nature of this? A standard always amorphic Strange, how easy to list: Routine tediously cyclic I don't know where I get it from I rely so
Let the light Be less annoying Don't expose me like this I won't lose my way again As long as it's dark enough to see Welcome blindness, transparency
To what do you not drive Mortal hearts Accursed hunger for gold? Cheaply bought, but deadly sold With new light they shine on through On fields of shredded
A legacy of pain Born into suffering Bound by some spiritual chain Cowering under The weight of a cross-shaped shadow Your definition of sin Leaves
Spare me your righteous lesson This path I walk is mine Those hollow words you speak Won't change my made up mind How cheap we buy our ideals A standard
Hear now what I tell you Men shall know of this They shall sleep content With certainty they'll see And here's the secret No hidden logic in the seasons
Life cheaply spent All feelings put aside Deep paralyzing anguish Pays the price, twisting the knife Eluded for so long My path was clean I thought
Sediment upon sediment Lapping like waves at my spine To linger in this fury You versus I Welcome opponent You versus I Negation in smothering grip
