Peel away the dust that's hardened our skin I've been dying for a chance to look within Longing for more, but praying for less Some things never change Yet I still draw breath Yet I still draw breath Peel away at the dust, though your fingers may bleed Shed the pain I've surrendered my sense of peace for a chance to feel again To feel again They say make something from nothing If you want to feel something But I let my own self doubt take form If I want to do this then I need to make myself believe That I'm not lost That I'm supposed to be here Stagnancy taking shape The only steps I take lead away from change I did this, I made this Bit the hand that fed Feeling senseless I did this, I made this Pull me out of my choices Pull me out of my head Help me reconnect instead Show me my fears are just the thoughts that I fed They say make something from nothing If you want to feel something But I let my own self doubt take form If I want to do this then I need to make myself believe That I'm not lost That I'm supposed to be here If I did this, and I made this Then I can make changes If I did this Shed the pain and start again Shed the pain and start again Tear from the axis Choose the most resistance There aren't enough days to keep living this way Shed the pain They say make something from nothing If you want to feel something But I let my own self doubt take form If I want to do this then I need to make myself believe That I'm not lost That I'm supposed to be here, yeah That I'm supposed to be here If I want to do this then I need to make myself believe That I'm supposed to be here Peel away the dust that's hardened my skin I've been given a chance to look within Never accepting less I will start again
