Beyond the Reach of Time and Reason
Know the toxin that consumes you
Letting go despite the cost
A life of blurs and consequences
Closest ties encased in frost
Dipsomania, your daily draw
A well of ache that's never whole
Taps open up and down it pours
A thousand scattered reasons, untold, unknown
Can you love a broken man while your weapons are still drawn?
(Blood has chained me)
Is it blood that makes you weak?
Is it love that makes you strong?
(Love unchain me)
Is this all that still defines you
A legacy of ash and dust
Poisoning what's left of us
Can you love a broken man while your weapons are still drawn?
(Blood has chained me)
Is it blood that makes you weak?
Is it love that makes you strong?
(Love unchain me)
And I know you cannot be
Any more than what you are
(Can you hear me?)
But I'm not my history
I just needed you to know
(Can you hear me?)
Inside our prison walls
Face to face with heavy shoulders
I look into your eyes
Weaker now and getting older
I'm searching through the lies
Knowing I won't find a reason
Where does compassion lie?
Beyond the reach of time and reason
Time and reason cannot change this life
Born afflicted with this sickness
I rise
I rise in ashes of a thousand cigarettes
The remnants of our conversations blowing in the wind
Can you love a broken man while your weapons are still drawn?
(Blood has chained me)
Is it blood that makes you weak?
Is it love that makes you strong?
(Love unchain me)
And I know you cannot be
Any more than what you are
(Can you hear me?)
But I'm not my history
I just needed you to know
(Can you hear me?)
Letting go despite the cost
A life of blurs and consequences
Closest ties encased in frost
Dipsomania, your daily draw
A well of ache that's never whole
Taps open up and down it pours
A thousand scattered reasons, untold, unknown
Can you love a broken man while your weapons are still drawn?
(Blood has chained me)
Is it blood that makes you weak?
Is it love that makes you strong?
(Love unchain me)
Is this all that still defines you
A legacy of ash and dust
Poisoning what's left of us
Can you love a broken man while your weapons are still drawn?
(Blood has chained me)
Is it blood that makes you weak?
Is it love that makes you strong?
(Love unchain me)
And I know you cannot be
Any more than what you are
(Can you hear me?)
But I'm not my history
I just needed you to know
(Can you hear me?)
Inside our prison walls
Face to face with heavy shoulders
I look into your eyes
Weaker now and getting older
I'm searching through the lies
Knowing I won't find a reason
Where does compassion lie?
Beyond the reach of time and reason
Time and reason cannot change this life
Born afflicted with this sickness
I rise
I rise in ashes of a thousand cigarettes
The remnants of our conversations blowing in the wind
Can you love a broken man while your weapons are still drawn?
(Blood has chained me)
Is it blood that makes you weak?
Is it love that makes you strong?
(Love unchain me)
And I know you cannot be
Any more than what you are
(Can you hear me?)
But I'm not my history
I just needed you to know
(Can you hear me?)
