lyrics

On the precipice
Of ignorance and bliss
I found not only you
But, nothing to hold onto
The trials of these times
Bear nothing to future light
I pray that you come down
And speak to me now

Where were you on the longest nights?
Where were you when I found these hands were mine?

If faith is just a metaphor for what I live without
Deep into the ground
(Abandoned in those circles just too far to be found
I’ll rest my head here forever, neither sight nor sound)

I’m not afraid to die or leave this sorry world behind
Only to think that when I go
It’s you who’s there to greet me, with worn and tired hope
That I had found peace in you, and comfort in old bones

I’ve buried it all so deep
Repression manifesting in my dreams
The haunt remains perpetually
Persistent in reminding me
And I still feel it in the wake
Of all the things you didn’t say
The catalyst for the collapse
Of love you toll without romance

If all of this is fleeting, I pray that it leaves scars
To serve as a reminder of who we think we are

(Where were you, where were you?)

Once more, no room for kinder words
From cradle to the grave, the human curse
This stubborn skin, forged by time and ice
A frost that won’t be thawed by glory nor light

If all of this is fleeting, I pray that it leaves scars
To serve as a reminder of who we think we are
