Get the album here: https://tij.lnk.to/without-reason Lyrics: The crooked smile, expression repressed Birthed from a rushing sweep of panic and distress So temporary, so catatonic The silhouette of silence is feeding off the flesh A balance broken Words you left unspoken Burn the hope in me The wound has been reopened You’ll never hear me Signs and visions blurry Burn the hope in me Burn the hope in me Watch me wash away I’m walking lost inside a dream With one foot in my grave I can’t escape, I can't escape These artificial moments, suspended in stasis Crafted from a twisted perception So shed your sorrow and bitterness Devoted to deception guided by the fix A balance broken Words you left unspoken Burn the hope in me The wound has been reopened You’ll never hear me Signs and visions blurry Burn the hope in me Burn the hope in me I let the poison in A prison built around this mental affliction I let the pain creep in Reacquaint with the wicked I called you out from the splinter of darkness Watch me wash away I’m walking lost inside a dream With one foot in my grave I can’t escape, I can’t escape this pain Every step, every breath, all progress made It ends with a glass tomb, a tomb I have chosen for myself Compassion and transgression, fight and folly Stricken with a confliction that spreads like frost on a cold, winter night With one purpose, and one destination To breed a relentless fixation on provisional euphoria Indiscriminate tracings holding the essence of human life I breathe venom from the sharpest edge Snatched the life from me, my soul taken on swift wings I called you out from the splinter of darkness Where I found you dreaming #texasinjuly #withoutreason
