Altar
They say your body is an altar but I took it too far
I sold myself out to the man in charge
The mind that hides your soul, its logic breaks it bends it burns
The lessons you unfold, they teach but will you ever learn?
This is where I'm going
This is where I've been
I don't want to do this, I don't want to do this again
Show me how to see them
Show me how to feel them
Show me how to leave them
They say your body is a canvas but I took it too far
I traded myself in for a piece of art
The shadows in your eyes, they speak the truth that you can't say
The wanting in your heart grows tired of leading you astray
They say your body is a temple but I took it too far
I held myself up until I fell apart
The words that fill your mind, they mix and match til memory breaks
The thoughts that fill your lungs,
they breathe themselves into fire escapes
This is where I'm going
This is where I've been
I don't want to do this, I don't want to do this again
Show me how to see them
Show me how to feel them
Show me how to leave them
This is where I'm going
This is where I've been
I don't want to do this, I don't want to do this again
This is where I'm going
This is where I've been
I don't want to do this, I don't want to do this again
Show me how to see them
Show me how to feel them
Show me how to leave them
(Show me how to see)
Show me how to see them
(Show me how to feel)
Show me how to feel them
(Show me how to leave)
Show me how to leave them
(Show me how to set them free)
I sold myself out to the man in charge
The mind that hides your soul, its logic breaks it bends it burns
The lessons you unfold, they teach but will you ever learn?
This is where I'm going
This is where I've been
I don't want to do this, I don't want to do this again
Show me how to see them
Show me how to feel them
Show me how to leave them
They say your body is a canvas but I took it too far
I traded myself in for a piece of art
The shadows in your eyes, they speak the truth that you can't say
The wanting in your heart grows tired of leading you astray
They say your body is a temple but I took it too far
I held myself up until I fell apart
The words that fill your mind, they mix and match til memory breaks
The thoughts that fill your lungs,
they breathe themselves into fire escapes
This is where I'm going
This is where I've been
I don't want to do this, I don't want to do this again
Show me how to see them
Show me how to feel them
Show me how to leave them
This is where I'm going
This is where I've been
I don't want to do this, I don't want to do this again
This is where I'm going
This is where I've been
I don't want to do this, I don't want to do this again
Show me how to see them
Show me how to feel them
Show me how to leave them
(Show me how to see)
Show me how to see them
(Show me how to feel)
Show me how to feel them
(Show me how to leave)
Show me how to leave them
(Show me how to set them free)
