lyrics

Verse 1

Buried in these synthetic walls
All these faces showing me purpose
They're painted in monochrome lies after all
True colors bleeding through the matte surface
Am I running free, or running from the past
Deception is imminent, I see a shadow cast
Changing with these darker seasons
Battling my own treason

Chorus

I am lost, deep within the chasm
Of once forgotten dreams I cannot fathom
And memories of the people who faded
I held them close all the years I waited
Just when I thought I knew it all
Suddenly I've been sinking in the walls
A new departure made it's mark
Stretching thin 'til I become the fabric in the dark

Verse 2

The sanctuary gets darker every day
Fading in the melancholy shade
I've lost the words to say
Wondering who's taking part in this masquerade
Saving face, or saving grace, where's the truth in this place
'Cause deep within the sands, I cannot find a trace
The walls are crumbling, I can hear the rattles
Clenching up my fists for the overwhelming battle
The faceless walking in a line
Wondering who will scar this heart of mine
They want me running in the dark
I stop at the light, 'cause I can't see without a spark
I'm still haunted by faces of seasons past
Traded out in the hiding space, I know it never lasts
Whenever someone reaches out a hand
So uninvested, they don't understand

Outro

This is a trap I fell in
This place is not my home
Dug myself out of the trenches, now I see
What it's like to embrace, my worst enemy
It was me
It was me
It was me
