I will live So hard to wake Blind from the smoke and the throbbing heartache No light They held me underground Don’t move, don’t scream, don’t make a sound In life There’s no time for regret I’ve lived endless lives just trying to forget I’m done So sick of it all We only hit harder the further we fall Bite your tongue You’ve said enough I don’t wanna hear it Shut the fuck up Hear them sing, hear them calling See them cast their eyes to the sky I can’t breathe, I’m suffocating Faced with this life, I’d rather die Hear them lie, hear them preaching See them condemn who you are I can’t see through the mist around me Covering the sky, afraid of the stars Living with this vice only covers up the illness Walking this path under painted skies Want to see the end? You just follow all the nooses Hear the vultures sing, hear the blackbirds cry Live this way or you suffer with the symptoms There’s a way out, abandon your fear Without any sin there’s no need for salvation Listen now close, it rings so clear Hear them sing, hear them calling See them cast their eyes to the sky I can’t breathe, I’m suffocating Faced with this life, I’d rather die Hear them lie, hear them preaching See them condemn who you are I can’t see through the mist around me Covering the sky, afraid of the stars I look out on a windswept future I carve out a curse in your name Encircle me, let me suffer Cut out my eyes, never love again I forgot what it’s like to live The fear numbed fucking everything But I can’t catch every tear you shed I can’t save you, you’re already dead

Black sails grace the horizon And I watch from the beach As you suffer, as you struggle So far out of reach As the clouds sink into me My mouth fills with decay The burden of guilt builds With every passing day Will the colours succumb To the embrace of the grey? Even if it destroys me I won’t let them pass away I fought for you for years And you never let me win I drained your soul of sorrow I absolved all your sins I fought a thousand battles I will fight thousands more Put your goddamn pistol down, Pick yourself up off the floor Kept afloat by your heart As you wash into the storm My arms are the ropes That keep you bound to the shore Keep the fires of hope Aflame in your eyes We’ll light the catacombs Buried deep in your mind Think you’re alive? Show me Think you’re alive? Let me know Think you’re alive? Show me You won’t dangle from this rope Think you’re alive? Show me Think you’re alive? Let me know Think you’re alive? Show me I will never let you choke All the grief, all the pain Insects writhing in my brain Fear takes hold, fade to black All the words we can’t take back And through it all All the pages we burned Through it all There is no lesson left to be learned We dared to cross the oceans Choked with the poison of the past We stole our smiles from the darkness While the world looked on aghast In the swirling night winds Painted blue across the sky We found the joy inside us Beneath the corpses of our lies Broken sails still catch the breeze The ship still sails on the stormy seas With no room left for banality We found our lost tranquillity

lyrics

There’s no use taking flight, anchored down by the lies We tell ourselves just to go on living Delusion clings to us like an illness The face of truth is framed by snakes We stand transfixed by the stony gaze Sleep safe and sound, under your crown But you can’t see the bodies for the bones Piling up corpses in the shape of a throne The price you ask is far too high For a future we cannot abide Will we ever see a spark to break up the dark? Surrounding us, an endless abyss A formless void, yet still we persist What truths lie beneath the veil? How can we see with lights so frail? Secrets will sleep in the ground, never to be found As the grave worms eat through the decay, We watch the dawning of the end of days Now my eyes will fill with smoke I will scream my defiance until I choke Until I choke I won’t lay down, I will not give in to fate I won’t give up, I will stare death in the face
