lyrics

[SMOOTH SKIN]

It's such a painful moment
When you realize
They can't keep lifting the weight
That's dragging you down

Stumbling through the night
They’ll never know
Tethered to their fleeting light
‘Cause I’ll never show

But without them the poisoning
Keeps seeping in and draining me

There's something trapped in here
Waiting to go off
It is fighting to break free
I can’t let it out
Let me out

Reach out here
Take my hand, we are here for you
You do not have to fight this war
On your own

[WAR WITHIN]

The gathering clouds taking away the light
Trying to resist but know it won’t bide
And so I’ll wait for the storm to take me
And then vanish without a sight
Come on then, let's fight

I'm sick of the long nights
Of hot guilt and cold ice
Of being haunted by my own glare
I will break free of this nightmare

The drain is clogged
The way is fogged
The road is blocked
I’m being sucked into

And so in the end, alone after all
But I know I'll win this time
Waging the war within
