lyrics

I can't remember the time
Or how it lost me
But you will never quite know how much it cost me
To ground myself in a world so cold
With no escape from this rage tenfold
I hate that I let this hate take hold of me
And the shattered remains of a broken domain set free

Stop
Look
Don't let go
Hold still
I'm losing faith in you
Heartbeat soft and slow
Fulfill that I cannot wait for you
Speak
Scream
Cry inside
This place is just another dream
Riding on that half-life
This face is just your self-esteem

I'm higher and I
Can't control what my breath said
I lie in wait for this
Old soul on his death bed
Scheme and lie awake
Dream of what's at stake
Memories and false beliefs
Strange motifs and their strengths spread

I can't remember the names
How I forgot them
But I will never let go because I bought them
And found myself in a place in so cold
With no escape from this rage tenfold
I hate that I let this hate take hold of me
And I cannot explain why I cherish the name I grieve

Let go of what I need
Move now
I've lost all faith in you
Heart breaks but doesn't bleed
Somehow I still must wait for you
Roar
Shriek
The words you cried
This place is just a memory
Make the most of the half-life
Your face is perfect symmetry

I'm higher and I
Can't control what my breath said
I lie in wait for this
Old soul on his death bed
Scheme and lie awake
Dream of what's at stake
Memories and false beliefs
Strange motifs and their strengths spread

Stop
Look
Don't let go
Hold still
I've lost all faith in you
Heartbeat soft and slow
Fulfill that I cannot wait for you
Roar
Shriek
The words you cried
This place is just a memory
Riding on that half-life
Your words are false supremacy

Scheme and lie awake
I can't control what my breath said
Dream of what's at stake
I can't control what my breath said
