Knocked Loose - You Won't Go Before You're Supposed To Lyrics
Thirst
Followed by the thirst
All honesty's left broken and marred
I am scarred
(Marred) followed
(Left) by the
(Broken) thirst
Forever infected
With the sharp, never-ending thirst
Searching for comfort
That I can never attain
(Marred) followed
(Left) by the
(Broken) thirst
Dragging my knuckles
Forward but through the mud
Secluded lower form
Sickened by my thirst for change
Remove the canvas
Scratching at the surface of my face
I want to start again
I can almost taste it
Thirst

Piece By Piece
I hear the roar of a midnight wind
Begging not to fall again
I can't escape the dying light
Surrender to the night
(Piece) rime is dead
(By) still, it moves
(Piece) I tried to fight it off
But I can't hide from the truth
Can't hide from the truth
Each passing day
It comes in waves
Flashes of the things I've seen
Tired now, broken down
Withering away piece by piece
(Piece) time is dead
(By) but still, it moves
(Piece) I tried to fight it off
But I can't hide from the truth
Can't hide from the truth
Each passing day
It comes in waves
I tried to fight it off, but I can't
The pain I swallowed
Has been stuck in my throat
Oh, piece by piece (go)
The pain I swallowed
And thought was gone
Has been stuck in my throat for so long
I must be doing it wrong

Suffocate
Suffocate
Eclipsing weight
Strangled by every mistake
The wind will hush your cries
In the storm of your restless fate
Haunting pride
Morals defied
Are you conscious behind the knife
Or is it just another disguise
Drink from me
Take it now
Take it now
Everything that I have
Leaving nothing left
Eclipsing weight
Strangled by every mistake
Branded by all of your failures
A feeling that you can't shake
Eclipsing weight
Shut your lying mouth
Are you conscious behind the knife?
It all comes crashing down
Burdened by our connection
I long for separation
In the waning glow
Every breath tries hard to escape
Your reign is over now
Have you found your grave?
Suffocate
I will dig until I find the f*cking root
I suffered because of you
I will dig until I find the f*cking root
I suffered because of you

Dont Reach For Me
I dream of a cleansing wave
Reborn
Don't reach for me
No lies can spread
From a tongue removed
The weight of lies
Constricts your spine
I watch it kill you one day at a time
Crushing all you love
With every step
That's exactly why your daughter left
Do you hate me yet?
Do you hate me now?
A fitting end for an absolute f*cking clown
Do you hate me now?
I dream of a cleansing wave
Set me free
I return to form
No longer bound to me
And when your arms are too weak
To pull yourself back up
When your arms are too weak to reach for God
Don't reach for me
Will you grow tired
Portraying divinity?
Will your voice soon become hoarse
From the lies you
Scream for the skin to shed?
I let you get to me
You let it get to your head
(Coward)
I never gave a f*ck
Do you hate me yet?
Do you hate me now?
I dream of a cleansing wave
Set me free
I return to form
No longer bound to me
And when your arms are too weak
To pull yourself back up
When your arms are too weak to reach for God
Don't reach for me
No lies can spread from a tongue removed
I will cut off your tongue
Don't reach for me
Yeah

Moss Covers All
This house just swallows me
It doesn't feel like it did before
Trapped in endless rain
Barren moor
And all the vines will find their way
Through the dirt and hardened clay
The wind and rain will force decay
Moss covers all

Take Me Home
Tucked in a blanket of fog
Now only a memory, I start to dissolve
Braided by roots while the temperature falls
Forgotten in time, when the moss covers all
Pull me
Pull me back from all the darkness
A pain that sets and stains the heart
I thought I could run
I'm not as strong as I thought I was
Take me home now
No matter where I go
The dark finds out
Take me home now
Please, take me home
Take me home
Forget
(Over three hills)
(I soon will go)

Slaughterhouse 2
Break down the wall again
Time passes, I stay the same
Too many nights spent gathering change
Represented by wealth misplaced
It must be so hard to have so much space
You tower above
Pretending like you still care
Your father's work
Paraded like it's yours to share
I tried but I can't let it go now
Let the roles reverse
I tried but I can't let it go
You won't survive
Let it go
I can't let it go
Moments of impulsion are internally hushed
We've trained our demons to sit idly by
Watching them prosper off another man's work
Hoarding our rations while we starve through the night
Force Fed
Force fed the lies
Eye for
Eye for an eye
I tried but I can't let it go now
Let the roles reverse
I tried but I can't let it go
You won't survive
I tried but I can't let it go now
Let the roles reverse
I tried but I can't let it go
Break down the wall
Break down the wall again
No longer will I suffer
Not satisfied with your scraps
A total war driven by the lower class
Another notch in a system flawed
One mutilation under god
You won't survive in the slaughterhouse

The Calm That Keeps You Awake
You fill your home with waves
Nothing still can stay
When the storm starts to recede
Parting clouds reveal your grief
Nothing still can stay
Forever midnight
Sink heavy into the abyss
You're alone with yourself
Forced only to reminisce
Completely devoid of bliss
Losing control
You sacrifice your peace now
In order to make all the voices stay out
Losing control
You're drowning in the waves (drowning in the waves)
'Cause nothing still can stay
It's the calm that keeps you awake
The calm that keeps you awake
It's the calm that keeps you awake
The calm that keeps you awake
Awake (time spent distracted)
Nothing simple, nothing pure
Ignoring every voice
Nothing still can stay forevermore

Blinding Faith
Blinding faith
Blinding faith
I am haunted
By the spirit again
I can't feel it
(I pretend)
There's something inside me that won't let it in
(I'm alone)
So I beg
Beg for a chance in a circle of snakes
A life consumed by faith
From inside I can hear their call
Offering the blood of God
Fall in line now
Bow your head
I will suffer here instead of biting my tongue
Condemned to a life of pain until my time has come
No promise of heaven will make me march
With my final breath
I deny the church
The word becomes the law
The word becomes the law
(Bend the knee)
(Son of God)
Blinding faith
Fall in line
Blind

Sit & Mourn
Collecting petals of every memory
All I'm left with is all I know
Finding my own time to sit and mourn
Grief that spreads but will not show
Every season weighed by all we went through
Brought back by a voice unknown
You won't go before you're supposed to
I will break your fall
I will shield you from disdain
I will get us both home
I will do whatever it takes
A test at every turn
All I focus on is strength
I will carry you through fire
Loss we share means swallowing pain
Will you inherit my grief
If I finally choose to sleep?
I pulled from the root and found more blood
This life can be way too much
(Why'd you leave?)
(So it felt like I failed?)
