lyrics

Drowning just to find you
Sinking toward the light
Searching for air and for answers
but down here there are none to be found

My thoughts; the soldiers in my head;
are fighting a war not seeming to end
Ever repeating in my head
Unending until i am dead

Cut off my tarred black wings and shadow
Make them seek shelter from the firing rain
Cut out my eyes, cut out my Jesus
Cut out my heart, throw it away

The splinters of a broken vow
Cutting trough our withered skin
Opening up our festering wounds
Pouring out our ugly sins

What i see in shattered glass
Is the reflection of a broken man
Don’t burn your hands just ‘cause i burnt mine
You’ll be burnt alive

The damage done – what I’ve become
The damage done – is all i see
The damage done – cut out my eyes
and show me light:

We woke up to the sound of maggots gathered as one monstrous beast
Eating way at our rotting wounds
They didn't seem bothered by the extend of our screaming, our prayers and our tears

But they did whisper a song of comfort in our ears:

What’s done is done there’s no rewind
We didn’t burst for our first, weren’t hanged for our second lie
So we wash our hands in innocence
Bathing in your blood.

I’m
Staring down to see
Hell is found within
And the suffering is me

I’m facing myself like a rabid dog
Gnawing with my teeth
Hungering for some way to deal with me
While ripping trough the meat

The damage done
Cut out my eyes
And from the pitchblack
Show me a light
