Carve me inside
To see past and know you
Rape me alive
To see past the hand
Failing what's right
I'll rip here to show you
Fading the light
We are down again
So fill me so full
To see past the blind you
The blade is too dull
To feel past the hand
I'm taking this back now
I'll scar here to show you
And we are down
One life to lead, one life to show
For the hand that kills, is the hand that holds
One life to love, one life to learn
For the hand that builds, is the hand that burns
Screaming, drowning, falling
Stuck to me, like
In a life
That i'll never fucking know
One life to lead, one life to know
Take from this torture now i tear
For the life that kills, is the life that shows
Take from this, my life now i'm bare
One life to love, one life to learn
Take from this passion, i don't care
One life to build, one life to burn
