Lyrics
SUBSTANCE
Dark hallow shell of a life we’ve lived within. Born only to mend it’s cracks. We weld shut what we can’t forget. Enslaved by fear, in waiting for the unknown. We take the worry of others. Forced to make them all of our own. In vain, closed eyes try to forget that we’ve faced life without a choice. Clenched teeth won’t grind away the pain. Time passes, but I still feel the same. Empty.
Angels unknowing, silent martyrs of the earth. Blinded by their misfortune, blinded by their empathy. Upon your shoulders, this world will suffocate you. Will there still be air to breathe? What will they have left for you? When your trust is drawn. Then shot into their veins. Leaving you behind to fend for yourself. Even after all of this time, I still feel the same. Distance from you. Distance from me.
In vain, closed eyes try to forget that we’ve lived life without a choice. Clenched teeth won’t grind away the pain. Time passes, but I still feel the same. The empty in you.
