Remnant

(album: ERRA - 2010)

Shattered and torn I've crashed and burned
But I'll rise from my knees to break through

Show me a sign you disguise
This comfort provided with hollow words
This wicked design bastardized
My feelings to improve and overcome

Boundaries created to shield me from pain
I'll try and let you in to fix what's broken
Searching for answers, not knowing where to begin
To find the source of the fractures from within

Unknown destinies, you speculate
Hesitation, you generate

Walls are coming down
I can't feel the same
Feet upon the ground
Transcending the shame alone

Terrified of showing signs of weakness
I've put my mind through the darkest of nights
Lacerate feelings of hopeful escape
I black out the sun to hinder my sight
Oh

Decay
Evaporate
Left to rot alone

Unknown destinies, you speculate
Hesitation, you generate

Walls are coming down
I can't feel the same
Feet upon the ground
Transcending the shame alone

Heal your mind through tethered
Hearts that thrive unclaimed
Feet upon the ground
Transcending the shame alone

I know you had the best intentions
I hope you're free from the dissension
Repair this cracked foundation
Reconstruct me without all the pieces

Only through shame
Will I awaken the truth
Locked inside my chest
The only way
I'll rise from the ashes
Is setting fire to my own nest

Walls are coming down
I can't feel the same
Walls are coming down
I can't feel the same
