I'm a surrogate
I'm our type of land in civil rest
I'm your excuse to know
For our superior
I will undertake
I will overcome...
Imperfection you will find
They're close to us
They're after us
They're right here
This endeavor is not mine
It's a deadly trip
The damage at our feet
I'm stronger than I was before
No, sir-ee, I push these walls
Like I found you holding on
Direction by the open door
All the chances I ignore
Like I stand still holding on...
The day is done
Nothing left to say
Pressing hand in hands
Wishing I had known my place
To take a stand
The year under the fall
That's a reprimand
I'm here to help you through...
Is there for like it seems
Living in this secret through a dream
It's dark and I can't see
Gather broken shards of self-esteem...
<RETROSPECT>
Burning bridges as I cower beneath
trying to salvage the debris my devotion
tied around your waist lest you fall
no one seems to sense the strain
no one seems to know...
Burning bridges as I cower beneath
trying to salvage the debris my devotion
tied around your waist lest you fall
no one seems to sense the strain
no one seems to know...
I don't begin to proclaim that I know
I can't continue down this road
dweling on what has come to pass
no force alive will bring it back
I would know
I can feel the pressure getting steeper
with every life lost
you hope that I won't see the light
of day in time to come
with no conviction founded just
judgement contorted based on lust
give me strenght!
your assumption brings to a conclusion
of no consequence
and I refuse to play into your hands for your appeal
Inadequate, Inadequate
I know... I know... I know
I know...
I've hoped... I've hopep
you'll see me
<RESIST>
Turn back time
Reason why
Break neck speed
History
Waiting (waiting)
Wading (wading)
Exasperated
Unstrung
Tethered
Hoping forever
No! I tried to settle bets with my own soul
Bless my lips for the first time before you don't
Gripping to the last touch of your hand I grow to loathe
Hope that you remember just how far I'll go
Spend the rest of my life wishing I'm enough
Resist.
Resist.
Resist.
Resist.
Resist.
Resist.
