What You Left Behind

(album: The Hell We Create - 2022)

This house doesn't feel like home
When the ghosts of the past walk through these halls
Just a part of the syndrome
Skeletons so lost hid in the walls
I don't run 'cause, I can't escape
Every time they call my name

Let down, dragged out in the pouring rain
Left to drown, left to drown, I see it on their face
With every promise you have broken
Another crack forms in the foundation

Maybe they'll hear us screaming from our lungs
Maybe they'll see us standing in our graves, fighting through our pain
Through our pain

Awake in an empty tomb, floating echoes reside that we're left by you
Living life in a circle
I feel you here, you're the toxin in this room
I can't run, I can't escape
Until the day that you're erased

Let down, dragged out in the pouring rain
Left to drown, left to drown, I see it on their face
With every promise you have broken
Another crack forms in the foundation

Maybe they'll hear us screaming from our lungs
Maybe they'll see us standing in our graves, fighting through our pain

Flesh of Your flesh
Blood of Your blood
Can nothing, no one, teach them to love?
Flesh of Your flesh
Blood of Your blood
Can nothing, no one, teach them how to love?
Teach them how to love?

They may be forgotten, but I won't forget the hate that you left
The unpayable debt
With each passing moment the fire consumes
Your pride will bury you

Take a look at what you left behind
Take a look at what you left behind
