lyrics

We swim against these tides
That pull us down to our knees
And We Leave our names
Between these walls
My hand in this
Will swallow my name today
So I'll sit and watch you burn
With open eyes I see this lie
For what it is and leave it behind
My hand in this
Will swallow my name today
So I'll sit and watch you burn
I've been here once before
I've been here a thousand fucking times
I never meant for this
This wasn't my intention
Nothing left for this coward to hide behind
So all that's left
This is my redemption
Waging war against the current
That drags us beneath the floor
I'm just too weak to stand on my two feet this time
Look at my eyes, I can lie no more
Look at my lies, I can see no more
Look at my eyes, I can lie no more
Look at my lies, I can see no more
My hand in this
Will swallow my name today
So i'll sit and watch you burn
