Lyrics
verse 1
sitting by these shards of glass, I shattered clean from shattered pasts
wonder if the ultimate free, leaves behind this shell of me, of me
smoke inhaled it leaves a trail and we crash our cicada shells
welcome to the gates of hell
lose our souls and find ourselves
chorus
and i'ts innate baby can't put the mask away
or swallow down the dragon that destroys us with his rage (repeat)
verse 2
and if I could rename myself I'm not quite sure if it would cure
and if I could regain the ground
a chamapagned rhythm toppled down
chorus
I would still berate myself, their hands made me hate myself
a clean smile cannot shine for addicts to the storming mind
and if I could rename myself, I would still berate myself
their hands made me hate myself
silence made me hate myself
bridge
a clean smile cannot shine for addicts to the storming mind
a clean smile cannot shine addicts, for addicts
chorus
cannot make amends, this is my release
you let down your guard and the victim speaks
cannot make amends, this is my release
you let down your guard and the victim speaks (4 times)
