lyrics

Three years
Still the same
The anxiety chokes me
As I slowly escape
But I have nowhere to go
No more tears shed
In fear of another episode
Will you save me from myself
My broken soul

Too long I have never seen the sun
Bringing light with its rays
Turning my shadows away
It's always darkness in my dreams
I keep straying clueless
With paths all empty

Pick up my shattered bones
Piece me back together
And let me reach out again
Onto those I can remember
Pull me up from this wall I built

Take this time to vacate all my prisons

No direction felt like I was heading home
A slave I will stay
Until the day I can change
But I know I am the root of my pain
And the soil will caress my skin

Fear lies inside
Buried in my mind
It's the reason that I'm still alive
For every time I lift the knife
My arms get weary
I can't bring myself to an end

Never thought that I would feel alone
In this place that I call home
Lord, please guide me through
I’m crying out to you

Every second that I’m breathing
I’m finding a reason to live
To separate my life as a man
From the one as an unfeeling ghost
To separate from everything

Like rust
We wash away the dirt
Bringing new colours to the life we deserve
Nothing is forever
So seize every moment
Relief is the closure we longed for
