We woke up today With the desert air in our lungs So far away From the chaos, we left But no matter how far We choose to run away The haunting of our demons Will always remain You can run away But can't escape The animal The animal within you A tidal wave of past mistakes Will swallow you Behind the disguise there are secrets That will continue to tear us apart In and out of war Over and over again The twisting of the knife Will never stop It's getting deeper You could never run fast enough Away from the truth Into the arms of tragedy An open wound that is cut so deep It's spilling it's secrets out on the floor The emotional divinity Separates me from myself When I am longing for the silence Yet all I hear are nails A symphony screaming The grinding of my teeth Pulling at my heartstrings Smothered in debris On the other side of the blade You will find your change On the other side of the blade Behind the disguise there are secrets That will continue to tear us apart In and out of war Over and over again Will the twisting of the knife ever end? These idle secrets will continue to tear Us apart Over and over again Will the twisting of the knife ever end?
