Lyrics

Atonement

[Instrumental Intro] [Verse 1] Cleared the fog that was veiled around me And blurred my sights Suddenly, I'm no longer aching To honor my plights [Instrumental Break] [Verse 2] Rising moon and my skin is peeling Past undone Suddenly, I can't justify What I had become [Instrumental Outro]
