The Strain
I bit my tongue for far too long
Salt hits the wound, I'm dormant but the night is young
No punishment deserves this crime
Patience can wait, the last thing on your side is time
Temptation reminds me
My weakness defines me
You lend an ear, I chew it off
You disappear to see how quickly we move on
To cut you slack is to concede
I'd face the facts but I don't believe a thing I read
The monster inside me ascending the ivory
Temptation reminds me, my weakness is defining me
Maybe I'll never find my voice
Could I ever change a thing?
When will my signal turn to noise
From a whisper to a scream?
When did we make our peace violence?
Grounds will bleed for those who heed silence
How can truth set me free
When we're still pretending?
All I need is to be heard
When you're talking over me
Maybe I'll never find my voice
Could I ever change a thing?
When will my signal turn to noise
From a whisper to a scream?
When did we ever have a choice?
Could we never change a thing?
Maybe I'll only strain my voice
With a whisper to a scream
Salt hits the wound, I'm dormant but the night is young
No punishment deserves this crime
Patience can wait, the last thing on your side is time
Temptation reminds me
My weakness defines me
You lend an ear, I chew it off
You disappear to see how quickly we move on
To cut you slack is to concede
I'd face the facts but I don't believe a thing I read
The monster inside me ascending the ivory
Temptation reminds me, my weakness is defining me
Maybe I'll never find my voice
Could I ever change a thing?
When will my signal turn to noise
From a whisper to a scream?
When did we make our peace violence?
Grounds will bleed for those who heed silence
How can truth set me free
When we're still pretending?
All I need is to be heard
When you're talking over me
Maybe I'll never find my voice
Could I ever change a thing?
When will my signal turn to noise
From a whisper to a scream?
When did we ever have a choice?
Could we never change a thing?
Maybe I'll only strain my voice
With a whisper to a scream
