Layers (feat. Ben Acors & Amy Brown) Video (MV)

I can't escape the pain
It makes me feel insane
Every day's a nightmare
Please take this away
Overwhelming fear
Is gripping in my soul
Feels like I am left
To die out in the cold
I'm in a darkness
Can't find my way home
Tryin' to find myself
Feel like a drone
A robot
So unknown
I'm in a crowd of people
Why do I still feel alone?
Can anyone comprehend the way I've been?
I know I'm broken
I try to please people, but I must be jokin'
Loosin' my faith
Can't tell you what hope is
All this
This darkness surrounded me
Evil keeps houndin' me
Around the corner
Another tragedy
All the pain keeps harassin' me
Temptation distractin' me
World crashin' around and attackin' me
Every chip off my bones
Is one less chip of ice, cold stone
Like a rock hard soul
God's fixin' me
I can't escape the pain
It makes me feel insane
Every day's a nightmare
Please take this away
Overwhelming fear
Is gripping in my soul
Feels like I am left
To die out in the cold
It's takin' so much time
I can barely hold
These layers are goin'
Not quite gone
Every chisel
Hurts so much
But I can tell every chip gets me closer to God
I can almost touch
God, chisel it away
Make these layers chip away more and more every day!
It's like I'm in a bad dream
I can't wake up
People weep for me
My heart broke up
God, pick up the pieces
Fix me up
Got a newly wrote thesis
These layers are ceasing
Chipping away
Like a brand new day
I'd be lying if I say I was happy today
I can't lie no more
Feel too dark
Got a heart so cold
My life is staggering
Please, God turn me around from this tragedy
I can't escape the pain
It makes me feel insane
Every day's a nightmare
Please take this away
Overwhelming fear
Is gripping in my soul
Feels like I am left
To die out in the cold
I wonder what's wrong
I got a broken soul
The wrong people picked up the pieces
Still feel alone
Can't get outta the dark hole
Where do I go?
What do I call home?
Every chipped piece
Still feels like I'm gone
It hits too hard
Why do I weep for this nation?
Weep for people that don't care for me?
Why do I care so much?
Why is it my problem?
Why am I wired this way?
Can only see darkness
Where's the color?
It's all gray
I'm tired of feelin' this way
It's like I'm dead
It's like I'm dead...
Just when I have reached
The point of no return
You reach out and grab me
Right before I'm burned
I thought that I was gone
I thought I couldn't see
But really this whole time
You were right in front of me
Just when I have reached
The point of no return
You reach out and grab me
Right before I'm burned
I thought that I was gone
I thought I couldn't see
But really this whole time
You were right in front of me
You were right in front of me
This whole time
But I was so blind
I was on the edge
And ready to jump
But you reached out your hand to me
Opened my eyes and now I see
That you were always there for me
