LYRICS

Right then my blood was the sunrise
My soul, the imminent threat
Jaded by nightmares and nothing but tragedy
Declarations of utter distress
I will love you but so will the scapegoat
When there's nothing more left to regret
What I feel as I wade through the ashes
Is so much more now, how could I forget?

My senses flow on repeat
The essence burns when I feel

The sky reflects in my hands
You took my world ’cause you can
Is it just me or is the light
Oh read me, you dust ridden seer
And prepare for the night

It is never too late
Now released from the cage
But still stuck in a dream
Bleeding through all the seams

All my inner redemption
Was all captured and carried away
Needing closure but yet stuck on repeat
Speeding through deserts, burned by the heat

Time will show if I'm fit for the breakdown
Merging the images with all your words
Everything's falling but I seem to be floating
Quenching my thirst from the deepest of wells

My senses flow on repeat
The essence burns when I feel

The sky reflects in my hands
You took my world ’cause you can
Is it just me or is the light
Oh read me, you dust ridden seer
And prepare for the night

It is never too late
Now released from the cage
But still stuck in a dream
Bleeding through all the seams
