Lyrics

Cold, no emotion feltAn ocean sinking into itselfFar down I go, ’til I’m someone elseAnd every dream is a hollow shell

A lost soul, I forfeit control to be with youWhatever it takes to please youWith blood that I’ve sold, I’ll do what I’m toldNow until foreverA lost soul, I forfeit control to be with youWhatever it takes to please youI swear to do what I’m told, with blood that I’ve soldNow until forever

These faces keep fading

Pray to the ones that keep you safe(Acts of contrition come to fruition, forgiven)As gods speak through us, suicidal sights remain(These apparitions have blurred our vision, conflicted)

But we were born to createI feel a yearning for what lies beyond the charadeIt calls my nameThe words escape from the pageAnd now I struggle to recallWhy I found myself here in the first place

Hold your breath for spirits to bring you to lifeWait for death and realize you’ve wasted your timeUnsaturated and stranded insideA world without any meaning, so IHold my breath for spirits to bring me to lifeWhatever brings us to lifeBring us to life

Pray to the ones that keep you safe(Acts of contrition come to fruition, forgiven)As gods speak through us, suicidal sights remain(These apparitions have blurred our vision, conflicted)Pray to the ones that keep you safe(Acts of contrition come to fruition, forgiven)As gods speak through us, suicidal sights remain(These apparitions have blurred our vision, conflicted)

These faces keep fadingMemories not worth savingComplacent, eyes vacantAll colors dissipating

But we were born to createI feel a yearning for what lies beyond the charadeIt calls my nameThe words escape from the pageAnd now I struggle to recallWhy I found myself here in the first place
