Hell Or High Water

Came back to the land of the living
I remember there's something I should not have forgotten
I should not have forgotten

What's my name again
I hope to find what's lost in last night's haze
Buried by the storm

Covered in dust I remain
Untouched by the hands of the sane

This is not who you are
It's only your thoughts that got infected
It's the emptiness you're carrying in your heart
That has hollowed you out
When the dam breaks
Will you run from the flood
Or would you stand beside me
Hell or high water
Hell or high water

I've yet to recover what was gone
So I went back to where I thought I lost it
I found only a shell

When I take a better look I see
The skin I dug up was once my own
I don't feel it belongs

Covered in dust it remains
Untouched by the hands of the sane

This is not who you are
It's only your thoughts that got infected
It's the emptiness you're carrying in your heart
That has hollowed you out
When the dam breaks
Will you run from the flood
Or would you stand beside me
Hell or high water
Hell or high water

Don't let the absence of action distract you from asking yourself these questions
They can prevent you from getting caught in the undertow

You can find your way back to dry land
By making mistakes that might lead to nowhere
But then one time you'll find yourself lost in a place where you know that

You find peace in the bits that are vague
Pleased by all things unexplainable
That's just a part of being human if you ask me

Don't ask me though
Ask yourself and let your thoughts
Run like a stampede
Let 'em go
Then you take over control

'Cause this is not you, this is them
Planting a seed inside your brain
You take back the soil once yours
You plant your seeds and watch 'em grow

Give 'em water you once thought
Was poisoned by the aftermath
Of darker nights, sharper thoughts
Not anymore, it's over now 'cause

This is not who you are
It's only your thoughts that got infected
It's the emptiness you're carrying in your heart
That has hollowed you out
When the dam breaks
I won't run from the flood
I will stand beside you
Hell or high water
Hell or high water
