Wearing me down
Down to my bones
A tireless loop
Set on repeat
Words that can't get through
Like shouting at a brick wall
Can't deal with these
Self destructive tendencies
You accept your own fate
Of writhing in a pit of despair and excuses
I've got to let it be known
If I don't address this now
This could be
This might be
This be the end of me
I can't let it follow me
I can't let it just hollow me out
But is salvation the cost of these broken wings?
These questions follow me
Feels like everything's the same
Only find myself to blame
Will I dispose, all that's close?
I know
These questions will
Spit in my face
Call my disgrace
Break in my body and leave me to waste
Tell me your reasons and tell me your sham
Feign your resolve cus you hate what I am
I've got to let it be known
If I don't address this
This will be
This will be
This is the end of me
I can't let it follow me
I can't let it just hollow me out
But is salvation the cost of these broken wings?
These questions follow me
But then who am I?
Denied all the outcries
Of those who've been suffering
If I don't let go
Am I doomed to repeat the same mistakes?
Don't know why
All I try
Trapped in this cycle of giving and taking
But I can't get it back
Times gone by
These weary eyes
Fixed in our own reflection staring
Stuck in our false impressions glaring
I can't let it follow me
I can't let it just hollow me out
But is salvation the cost of these broken wings?
These questions follow me
Don't rest your fallen dreams on me
If your instinct's to give it all up
Blackness weighed by dependency
Plunging our path from ascendency
When wading through the ocean bed
The tides will be flooded above our heads
But know in times of great distress
First comes the Fear
Then comes the Rest
Don't rest
