Lyrics Scourge - Bartley

Pierce the gaze and open
Up this box of lies you
Send me every day
Looking back it′s all the same
Life taking hatred I thought
Came from inside
But the more I think about it I
Know it was only your lies
Hatred crumbling
Save it I'm begging
You feared it as much as I did but The difference
Is I would′ve stayed through it and you didn't

Twenty one days is all it took to destroy the bell
When it cracked it rang a sound that came straight from hell
Tears would roll down all the children's cheeks on this grim day
Now they′ve grown up understanding their disheveled ways

Deep in this mud lies the misunderstood
We are buried and taken way out to the woods
With lips sewn to each other our secret it harbors
Itself in the mind of the unlucky others
Tortured stare right into the water under them
There is a glimmer of hope that surrounds the stem
Of their existence it will be questioned too much
Taking from others just to have another crutch

Fear me now
Take my life
See the crown
Reveal the knife
Sunken down
Into this dark
Place in this town
It will leave its mark

Feel the distance grow between
The inseparable
Hating the time that slips away from
Incredible

Feed off the life inside me
There is a ton of it
You took all that you needed
I stayed to fend for it
Seal it with your gentle kiss
Feel it I thought we needed it

Though the parasite threw me off of the tracks
I have found a beauty that cannot be matched
Inside my body it lies waiting to be set free
Into this world filled only with possibility
