Buried

Could you take my conscience
Place it in a box underground
You can seal my guilt too
Pack on the dirt so they can never be found
I'll dissipate before too long
You won't find me
I'm buried under the weight of what I've done
And I'm dying
I'm so tired of hiding
A troubled past
It consumes me nightly
With pressure building
I'll finally give in
They say with truth comes healing
Take the time to reminisce
Reflecting on the scope of this
The consequences I'd remiss
I know I'm the cause of it
Buried under the weight of what I've done

Have Faith

How high is that horse
That you can easily ignore
All the anguish that you cause
To those whose faith that you implore?
Despondent
Cause you've made up your mind
You've determined who's deserving
And who's left behind
Don't tell me "have faith"
When you never show your face for anything
I don't need your grace
Because I don't believe in anything
Savior can you help me out
I'm drowning in my doubts
Savior can you hear me now
All my faith's run out
You cast us out for having doubts
But until you show your face
I'll be an unbeliever

Silhouette
03:50

|

You're cold and shallow
And I was nothing more than a tool
For you to misuse
Well you pushed your luck
But the splinter gets stuck as you
Go back to where you found me
You try to hide in plain sight
But I've shed the light
You never were a friend to me
You're just a silhouette
Of a decent human being
You're no good
You'll try to use me again
But you'll learn as soon as the splinter sets in
So stay away from me
You're only toxic
Can't be washed clean
You'll smile as you hold me down
Under the water you'd watch me drown
You'll find in due time
You've got no place left to hide

Lie To Me
03:36
|
|

|
I was so naive to even think that
You could ever say something that you'd mean
You know just how to talk to me
You know how to make me feel I'm something
So lie to me cause I don't wanna know
Let me believe that you're at home alone
Grasping at anything
I searched for a meaning
But what I found isn't what I need
Such unaware
transient beings
We're searching for substance that's always fleeting
But you know just how to talk to me
Use me but help me to feel whole
Because you've crawled into my brain
And hollowed out your home
So lie to me

Hollow
05:14

|

You're hollow
I know cause you told me
The warning signs were pointing my way from the beginning
You're empty
You're as shallow as the banks that greet the sea
You're calloused and numb
Done purposely
So you don't feel a thing
I did my best
To fill the hole in your chest
And ignore the pain
I'm feeling in my head
So take what's left
And try to just forget
Everything you said
Cause it just reflects that you're
Understand I know that I was just a pawn
You let inside
A game you played to fill the void you hide
But you're found out
So tear your walls down
Or you'll never mean anything to anyone again

|
I'm careless
And I'm selfish
Sometimes I don't even call my parents
I'm shiftless
And I'm unfocused
Most times I don't even think it's worth it
But I'll try
To be better
Than I have been for most of my life
It's not easy going back and starting over
But I'll find solace in my own discomfort
Become familiar with the things that keep me up
