lyrics

VERSE
Commencement motivated by my fear
Perpetuated by my pride
Everything in my life hinges
on what I decide

PRE-CHORUS
We are born into te cold
But nurtured from birth
To know the warmth of safety
nothing lasts on this earth

CHORUS
From inception we feel a purpose
We know meaning hides underneath the surface
But when all is lost to the mundane
All we learn to recognize is the pain

VERSE 2
Seduced by a serpent
Putrid behind beautiful eyes
Surrendered to an animal
Its every breath is for my demise

PRE-CHORUS
We are born into te cold
But nurtured from birth
To know the warmth of safety
nothing lasts on this earth

CHORUS
From inception we feel a purpose
We know meaning hides under the surface
But when it falls to mundane
Each day continues to drain-
You can't hide from fear of loss
Or what you may never gain

BRIDGE
Surrounded by the unknown
Close enough to reach out and touch
Feels like inspiration
But is another self imposed crutch

I don't want to know remorse
I want to rip what I want from the source
A childish need to take what I deem mine
Further from a reflection I know I decline

This hunger is not who I want to be
An endless thirst does not make who I am
When this started, when it all began
I was a much better man
