lyrics

We were never really the same
Like the metal from the blade after battling rain
Couldn't quite cut ties from the memories chained
To our hearts and our minds now forever enslaved
Writing on the walls how it felt
to be the one who couldn’t catch you on the morning you fell
Never was the type to ponder if it’s heaven or hell
Because as long as we’re apart my soul trapped in a cell
Thoughts I have remember your name
In a beautiful disaster of beauty and pain
It was love I couldn’t master now I’m swallowing shame
In a bottle full of sorrow that I borrowed today
Sunken like the ships in the sea
That for now only the lonely hopeless creatures can see
Someone told me that I’d live to see it leave like a tree
In this moment I’m still waiting patiently like a seed
Hold my breath whenever it’s dark
Cause I know the way the shadows like to pick me apart
Then I"m puzzled by the pieces when I’m missing the part
Where the life I lived is really just a light with no spark
Roll me up another machine that relaxes me fantastically and practically frees
Me from everything that ever had a grasp when I breathe
In the moment as horizon cast opinions of me

I found love in the darkest places
As well as beauty in the strangest faces
They say the struggle is what will break us
But the struggle is what they gave us
The struggle is what will make us
Into the people that cant be broken
You tell me that these words are spoken
But its the feeling that makes it real
Deeper than these roots and fields providing many meals
But there's people out there that are starving
And others that just sit there carving, the knives into their flash
The pain they cant resist
Because its all they've ever known pouring out their soul
But no one ever listens
I promise you i will
I promise you i care
I promise ill be there
I promise you i"m here
