Illuminate

No more words, no more lies I'll give it to you straight and apologise I know your name and you are learning mine I could help you breathe again, lift the load Heavy with the weight of a fortune told The stain of a world will keep you paralysed Kiss the kids and tuck them in tight We're gonna slip out in this early morning light Tell our mother we were never kin, never were allies Just overdue Weep with me for the dreams that tore You know I hold them close in a mind of thorns A single seed of determination in this storm We've never put a foot wrong so far love Pull the knife from the page and step in the blood I want to see every mark we leave upon this path Oh, crack the shell of a long dead life We're gonna slip out in that early morning light Even if I crawl as I lay under the weight of it all You're not gonna leave my world this way You're not gonna leave my world this way Waiting for the things that you may never say You're not gonna leave my world this way You can never rule if you never break Waiting for the fractures to illuminate You're not gonna leave my world this way You're not gonna leave my world this way Waiting for the things that you may never say You're not gonna leave my world this way You can never rule if you never break Even if I crawl as I lay under the weight of it all
