Rite Of Passage

(album: Solace - 2021)

I followed all the promises you made
Never showed you any kind of resistance
I thought you would wake up and start realizing
So sick and tired of this I never told you

Waking up from sirens screaming in my head
They try to make me stop believing

Time has come to deny
Even though I burn with you

Now the silence in my head is getting louder
'Cause I'm giving up, now I'm giving up, oh oh
Destroying everything I used to be proud of
Out of, out of control
Take all that you want from me
Cause I'm giving up, now I'm giving up on us

I swallowed all the stories you made up
Never claimed anything you should have given me
You nearly died, survived but did not change
So you make me a faithful son to no one

Waking up from sirens screaming in my head
They try to make me stop believing

Time has come to deny
Even though I burn with you

Now the silence in my head is getting louder
'Cause I'm giving up, now I'm giving up, oh oh
Destroying everything I used to be proud of
Out of, out of control
Take all that you want from me
Cause I'm giving up, now I'm giving up on us

You have been what I thought was a loving man
But I don't understand this war we're in
You have been what I thought was a loving man
But I don't understand this war we're in

I tried it for so long
You never listened, you never learned
A grown man full of regrets
Maybe in the end we're not that different

Now the silence in my head is getting louder
'Cause I'm giving up, now I'm giving up, oh oh
Destroying everything I used to be proud of
Out of, out of control
Take all that you want from me
Cause I'm giving up, now I'm giving up on us

Now the silence in my head is getting louder
'Cause I'm giving up, now I'm giving up, oh oh
Destroying everything I used to be proud of
Out of, out of control
Take all that you want from me
Cause I'm giving up, now I'm giving up on us
