lyrics

I open my eyes to the same sun
Glowing on a faded world
I rise on shaky knees to numb feet
My legs take me back to familiar roads
Where familiar faces stare
And I remember just how they got there

I know what comes next
Pick up my step before
My path is blocked by rotting flesh
A sea of teeth and nails can’t be crossed by
A heart that’s not resilient

“Join us in this death
Your struggle is worthless
Repetition is the sign of your depletion
You have nothing left”

Break through

My ears stopped by determination
My legs strengthened through will
I’m not what they say
I’ll find the strength to find a new day
Cut this loop and cheat death to find a new sun

Breath cut short by the collar of my shirt
In the grasp of those that went before me
A thousand fingers still gripping still pulling
Tearing back at my confidence

Surety they will die

They were right
I can’t make it
They were right
I am nothing
I had my chance and didn’t take it
Now this is where it ends

Is there nothing that can give us strength?
It seems I’ve tried everything

But then I hear a whisper in the wind
“You are loved”

My strength renewed but not of my own
The gears in me were stripped hours ago
This can’t be done by flesh alone
But I’m reignited by love

So I break through the crowd
And I break through time
To watch the sun fall on the longest day of my life
Repeated failure now behind
Tomorrow a new sun will rise
And whatever new fight I find I know that I am loved
