lyrics
I’ve hung on the edge of earth and was ready to let go
I’ve fallen on a mountain rise and begun to build a home
There’s real comfort but I know I cannot stay
I must endure the pain so I burn the empty frame
And as I carry on I still collect those scars
Who says they should remind you of how capable you are?
To me they challenge every step I’ve ever laid
For every moment spent another sacrifice is made
Is there a way, a canon better set by pace?
I’m sick of watching every day just go to waste
I’m losing faith in all the mantras about pain
My shins are full of splints and I’m still dying in the rain
It isn’t fair; we battle relics from the past
What once protected us is now holding us back
If I could tell between the urges and the needs
If I could only overcome the primal part of me
I’ve been down to the conscious end
You wouldn’t believe it if you could have seen it
I’ve been down
Taking my nature by the throat
It’s not hard, somehow, to forget
You feel that you’re dying
It’s you that you’re fighting
I’ve been down
Taking my nature by the throat
Every enemy you’ve found
Old growth is harder to cut down
It pulls your hand away when burning on a stove
It saves your energy for when the food gets low
I, reign of pleasure, balanced by the rule of pain
Put a saddle on your heart and a spur inside your brain
As you look closer at the moss around your shins
You’ll find you don’t know where you stop and where the wood begins
So as you cut away the vines just keep in mind
“The reason I exist at all
To keep ourself alive
The real struggle comes from knowing where to cut
Which canopies make shade and which ones keep me in a rut”
Or maybe all of that is venom from the vines
The woods impersonate yourself
Always keep that in mind
Who’s really talking here?
Who’s calling all the shots?
Am I just here to give suggestions to a box
Why don’t I have control, I clearly know what’s best
This carnal mother’s seed will lay us both to rest
Dominance and discord
Fake it, take it all down
Torture your animal
You are the right way
Never back to the wall
Fake it, take it all down
You’re not the animal
You are the right way.
