Knees

I crawl
Through every single day
Hiding in your wake
Replacing every word
That I once heard you say
The weight is chaining me down
To keep me as your slave
But deep beneath your ice
I'm planning my escape

But you can't keep me here forever You devil

I'm struggling to stand
Your hand is out of reach
I'll never learn to fly
For you have clipped my wings
Here in this frozen Hell
It's not the place for me
I'm pushing you away
To get up off my knees

I scrape
The scabs of solid fears
From my tired face
There's not a single soul
That's seen me be this way
For you to drain my heart
To drink your life away
The consequence of truth
Will leave you in disgrace

Now all these visions fill my eyes
I despise you

I'm struggling to stand
Your hand is out of reach
I'll never learn to fly
For you have clipped my wings
Here in this frozen Hell
It's not the place for me
I'm pushing you away
To get up off my knees

I hear your voices in my head sometimes
Your words are law
I think your names have given my face lines
You left your mark
I feel your fingers are replacing mine
You are taking over
I need your reasons to remain
This kind of person I'm becoming

I'm struggling to stand
Your hand is out of reach
I'll never learn to fly
For you have clipped my wings
Here in this frozen Hell
It's not the place for me
I'm pushing you away
To get up off my knees

I've struggled for so long
My work is incomplete
I'll take each part of you
Bury them inside of me
This is the final time
I'll face this casualty
I'm pushing you away
To get up off my knees
