Lyrics Moving On - 719

These gorgeous melodies
They sing to me the most atrocious things
Lend your ears, step in, and see
What your shelter's really done to me
Salvation hides in the eye of the storm
Their hate is shed, now armor adorns
Motives fuel the lies they spin
That's why the truth weighs so thin

Wading through the fallen stars
I see the grave that they've dug for me
Sifting through the splintered heart
I found the change was meant to be

The line between the dead and living seems to fade away
Memories and faces in stages of decay
Humanity is waning. the skyline fades to gray
The bones inside my closet are begging me to stay
Another year of flatlines. the face of my delay
Push has come to shove now. Last chance to get away

Wading through the fallen stars
I see the grave that they've dug for me
Sifting through the splintered heart
I found the change was meant to be

This discomfort welcomes me
With open arms, a reckoning
The horizon swallows me
Ushers in a helpless feeling

Here I stand, a world unknown
A trembling man, a dying glow
In my hands, life's memories
All so fucking bittersweet
