Gliding

We woke up today
With the desert air in our lungs
So far away
From the chaos, we left
But no matter how far
We choose to run away
The haunting of our demons
Will always remain

You can run away
But can't escape
The animal
The animal within you
A tidal wave of past mistakes
Will swallow you

Behind the disguise there are secrets
That will continue to tear us apart
In and out of war
Over and over again
The twisting of the knife
Will never stop
It's getting deeper
You could never run fast enough
Away from the truth
Into the arms of tragedy
An open wound that is cut so deep
It's spilling it's secrets out on the floor

The emotional divinity
Separates me from myself
When I am longing for the silence
Yet all I hear are nails
A symphony screaming
The grinding of my teeth
Pulling at my heartstrings
Smothered in debris

On the other side of the blade
You will find your change
On the other side of the blade

Behind the disguise there are secrets
That will continue to tear us apart
In and out of war
Over and over again
Will the twisting of the knife ever end?

These idle secrets will continue to tear
Us apart
Over and over again

Will the twisting of the knife ever end?
