Lyrics
Words carry weight like a knife -
deadly through thick skin
They roam through the tide
For us to take in
Break out
They're trying to reach you
Cast out
It hurts when they call out your name
Give in
They wanted to see you
Fade out
They wanted to see you fall
No faith
The last land we set foot in
Disgrace
Reversed but somehow all the same
Your creed
I'm trying to breathe
Your race
I'm trying to see through it all
Which thoughts belong?
Why can
we only speak in
tongues?
do we trust
our beetle mysteries,
When we sail different seas?
Like slicing a vein
(we all bleed the same)
This curse doesn't end like a flame
Somebody needs you
Somebody needs you to know
Though the world feels wrong
That thought belongs
This box belongs
Why can
we only speak in
tongues?
do we trust
our beetle mysteries,
When we sail different seas?
The journey is upside-down
And the lines are all broken
But we can be reached in a crowd
Despite not knowing
If we're all
immutable
and selling the same thing
If souls are perfect
Why can't we think out loud?
Why can
we only speak in
tongues?
do we trust
our beetle mysteries,
When we sail different seas?
Words carry weight like a knife -
deadly through thick skin
They roam through the tide
For us to take in
