I thought I knew better but
I lost it on the path
Pride holds my place
I'm never phasing back
Was it worth it
To scratch past the surface?
Was it worth it
To draw my own curtains?
Dragged myself out of the light
Showed myself the truth
Pulled it out from under
Fell further down the chute
Had to see it all
Couldn't be the fool
Wouldn't fall in line
Robbed myself of all the tools
Dragged myself out of the light
Showed myself the truth
Pulled it out from under
Fell further down the chute
Had to see it all
Couldn't be thе fool
Wouldn't fall in line
Robbed myself of all thе tools
♪
A lifetime spent
Hiding from the shame
I pushed and pulled
Found myself closer to pain
Absent thoughts
A reality I can't sustain
I push myself in
I hold the blame
In a moments notice
I could've changed
But I felt myself grow older with the stains
The life I spent
I don't want it back
I hold the power when there's no God at my back
Blind to the crevice I dug myself in (Was it worth it?)
Blind to the crevice I dug myself in (Was it worth it?)
Unknowingly robbed myself
Blind to the crevice I dug myself in (Was it worth it?)
Dragged myself out of the light
Showed myself the truth
Pulled it out from under
Fell further down the chute
Had to see it all
Couldn't be the fool
Wouldn't fall in line

The waves never take
Just wash away decay
Always a constant pulse
Never runs astray
Never so bad that the light won't leak in
Never so bad that I say goodbye to my friends
But it's there
Underneath the surface
Hiding in the crevice
Waiting for the curtains
Chipping away and away
Slowly eroding day after day
Day after day
The walls I built, only grow
The halls I built, dimly glow
The waves I watched, only slow
Slow
The walls I built, only grow
The halls I built, dimly glow
The waves I watched, only show
The light seeps in
But light seeps in
But light seeps in
