The Great Demise

As we keep struggling to find a source of understanding in our lives
We’ve lost the power to embrace the things for what we strive
Communication lost, to bite the hand we must
It feeds us greed and it controls us till we turn to dust

Reaching out, you’re reaching in till nerves are twitching
Heal the wounds that have been laying there
On the surface of the skin of what we love

It turned to hatred
You feel the pain when you put the nail against the scab
And pull until the blood runs
More friction, more lеmons into the basket of what is our lives

No, turning our ash to gold, bе quiet and behold
For you’re about to witness the great demise
No, make your fists unfold, and look me in the eyes
For you’re about to witness the great demise
Yeah

Push back and realize that what you shoved is your own shadow
More friction, more pointless arguments and serpent tongues

Hear me out, the words keep tumbling down, I see them
And as if it ever mattered, this has ship burned
Long before it had the chance to set sail
And that’s where it will remain

It turned to hatred
You feel the pain when
You put the nail against the scab and pull
Until the blood runs
More friction, more lemons into the basket of what is our lives

No, turning our ash to gold, be quiet and behold
For you’re about to witness the great demise
No, make your fists unfold, and look me in the eyes
For you’re about to witness the great demise
Come on

This is where it ends

No, turning our ash to gold, be quiet and behold
For you’re about to witness the great demise
No, make your fists unfold, and look me in the eyes
For you’re about to witness the great demise

And I’ll be trying to maintain
A nurturing balance between two slopes
