Your cries of white
Don't match the black of your eyes
Oh
And the fire you ignite won't burn away the lies
'Cause the storm is threatening to wash it all away
Don't swear to me
That you're as sharp as the blade that can cut through the bullshit.
You're not what you pretend to be
Just a mountain of lies waiting to crash into the sea
And I won't be there to pick up the pieces.
Can you feel the gravity of your words gather on your back now?
These crooked lines crooked spines are weighing down
Can you feel the gravity?
And it hurts to learn your precious words are worthless as they burn away
Burn away.
All choked up
Bite your tongue
Burn away
Inhale the smoke;
Black heart
Black lungs
And it hurts to learn your precious words are worthless as they burn away
Away
Away
Away
Your cries of white
Don't match the black of your eyes
'Cause the storm is approaching the shore
Drowned in the waves
I hope you never see the sun again
When the flood begins to pull you under
You can swear to the rain that you'll change
It won't save you now
Can you feel the gravity of your words gather on your back now?
These crooked lines crooked spines are weighing down
Can you feel the gravity?
And it hurts to learn your precious words are worthless as they burn away
Burn away.
From the bottom of my black heart
I hope you never see the sun again.
From the bottom of my black heart
I hope you never see the sun again.
From the bottom of my black heart
I hope you never see the sun again.
