Suffer On

[Verse 1]

It took some time to see the shapes begin to bend

Again I pick myself up from the rot

I took a drink of blood from the riverbed

Next one thousand faces, the miracle sabotage

Who chooses to move to the pain?

Who are the ones who live in shame?

We will suffer on through the aftermath

We will suffer on

Cut the rope, tip the hourglass

Born into a bitter world

Again

I found a way to make it out

Turn to the outside, break through the window and weigh it down

[Verse 2]

From every step they take, I watch them make their own mistakes

Another life has gone to waste

I will carry on

(From every step they take, I watch them make their own mistakes)

Another life has gone to waste again

The call is fading

Dead to us

The face of ignorance reveals itself

[Breakdown 1]

We are products of false engagement

We can think we own the candlelight

Now, I give my offerings

To the wandering, to the broken dreams

[Pre-Chorus]

I know what it's like on the ledge

To no avail, I'm only a martyr in the end

Tell me right now

[Chorus]

I'm here the ones who fell

I'm here for the ones who feel

No matter the cost

We all suffer on

[Post-Chorus]

Born into a bitter world, we suffer on

[Breakdown 2]

I've been overdrawn

Absence veiled by attention

Begging for pain to release me

Waiting for you to call me home

The way you say my name

I held your ghost until it stopped breathing

Existing in what is not

Evolving to be forgot

I held the silence like a wound

Buried deep

Breathing fire

Not here to mourn (Not here to mourn)

I am the storm they tried to retire

Built from the echoes, I am the weight of the world

To suffer on, to carry the weight of a thousand suns

To be an apparition amongst the ones

Can't turn away from the sign of the black wall

We can't forget that we gave everything

Against all logical thinking, yeah

Dead to the world, dead to myself

Yet I somehow find the strength to suffer on
