You feel it creep in
A thousand knives that sink in
When all you believe in
Gets lost behind confusion
This war inside
Scorched Earth under blood red skies
This pain in your mind
They don't see what's behind your eyes
Paralyzed from the fear inside
But pain is only temporary
So why are all these pages tearing?
Terrified of what you hide behind
The weight of all the hurt you carry
The memories you try to bury now
Deep breath, cold sweat
They say it's all in your head
But you're fighting
With what's next
Until you're left for dead
This war inside
Scorched Earth under blood red skies
This pain in your mind
Brings back what you thought you left behind
Paralyzed from the fear inside
But pain is only temporary
So why are all these pages tearing?
Terrified of what you hide behind
The weight of all the hurt you carry
The memories you try to bury now
(Why are all these pages tearing?)
Give me
A single moment of peace
I'm ripping through my skin
Just to find relief
Paralyzed from the fear inside
But pain is only temporary
So why are all these pages tearing?
Terrified of what you hide behind
The weight of all the hurt you carry
The memories you try to bury now
This war inside
Scorched Earth under blood red skies
(Pain in your mind)
The memories you try to bury now
