Suffer On

It took some time to see the shapes begin to bend

Again I pick myself up from the rot

I took a drink of blood from the riverbed

Next one thousand faces, the miracle sabotage

Who chooses to move to the pain?

Who are the ones who live in shame?

We will suffer on, through the aftermath

We will suffer on, cut the rope, tip the hourglass

Born into a bitter world again

I found a way to make it out

Turn to the outside, break through the window and weigh it down

From every step they take, I watch them make their own mistakes

Another life has gone to waste

I will (from every step they take)

Carry on (I watch them make their own mistakes)

You wrecked another life has gone to waste again

The call is fading

(Dead to us)

The face of ignorance reveals itself

We are products of false engagement

We can think we own the candlelight

Now, I give my offerings

To the wandering, to the broken dreams

I know what it's like on the ledge

To no avail, I'm only a martyr in the end

(Tell me right now)

I'm here for the ones who fell

I'm here for the ones who feel

No matter the cost

We all suffer on

Born into a bitter world, we suffer on

I've been overdrawn

Absence veiled by attention

Begging for pain to release me

Waiting for you to call me home

The way you say my name

I held your ghost until it stopped breathing

Existing in what is not

Evolving to be forgot

I held the silence like a wound

Buried deep and breathing fire

Not here to mourn, I am the storm

They tried to retire

Built from the echoes, I am the weight of the world

To suffer on, to carry the weight of a thousand suns

To be an apparition amongst the ones

Can't turn away from this side of the black wall

We can't forget we gave everything

Against all logical thinking, yeah

Dead to the world, dead to myself

Yet I somehow find the strength to suffer on
