We all can only take so much

Some more than others

And our individual tolerance

For stress, for loneliness

Is so subjective

But there's no tolerance at all

For hopelessness

Yes, you sure did your best to smile

When I dragged you once more to the isle

But all the serenity

Just served to augment your pain

You've always been intrigued

By death and the other side

You got yourself too close to the, to the abyss

And no, no one of the closest ones around you

Realized how your stare turned empty

How the flickering faded from your eyes

And emptiness invaded

Yes, you sure did your best to smile

When I dragged you once more to the isle

But all the serenity

Just served to augment your pain

And no one could tell the moment

When you disassembled

When your restless heart froze

And you sank below the ice

Eyes wide open

Your savior's soul is consumed by guilt

Your faith in him won't be saving you

Your savior's soul is consumed by guilt

Your faith in him won't be saving you

My whole life I've been searching

Digging deep

Turning over every stone

Questioning everything I know

Maybe there's no fire

Far behind these mountains

This light is something else

We are just atoms

Colliding, clashing

Melting, merging

Existing, spinning

Colliding, burning

Out
