Separations, or The Grim in Four Acts Lyrics

I waged this war with my shaking hands

For I've sunk broken ships in this toxic waste

Alone in a field with spears grazed at my neck

And an army of men with bows drawn to my head

An enemy I am and a leader I was

With the words that I write now a force of such vigilance

I can't restrain myself from this memory

Strayed and beaten when I considered you the bestest of friends

You've pushed me for all I've had

Scraping for drama with nails like a hawk

But you aimed for my heart while you scoured for the truth

All that I had was a name for you to use

He called himself Jesus and he smelt of sin

So cruel with an ego sewn into his skin

An all-of-a-kind man with a public dream

Of such goals he could achieve if he wasn't such a sleaze

Give me a breakdown

You have nothing to hold over me

I trusted you to be kind

Ghost me back and proclaim me dead

I'm done!

Listen to your heartbeat sync to mine

I'm cutting loose of all I've ever wanted

And I still fought for the rest of my days

Time lost thinking you'll never die

I've never been so cold to you

Listen to your heartbeat sync to mine

I've fought for so long

I lost my mind

In these caves, you dug me out

I'll keep fighting these faces

I'll separate myself from your heroes

I've fought for so long

It's time to share my life

I've fought for so long

I've fought for so long

I've fought for so long

I fought so hard

I fought so hard

I fought so hard

I pray to be a wishful man as I fear in a world of hypocrisies

I beg for the day I can bring myself up from this breathing underground

I first saw him at a distance

He slowly crept his way to me

His wicked interest swallowed me whole

He showed me a version of himself

A nature I related to

And as our years passed by

He was the best I've ever had

And when my father passed

He told me "We'll get through this together,"

"Have you ever encountered death like this before?"

And I said no

I looked to him for advice

He grinned as he spoke in hypocrisies

He twisted words around with an ignorance like I've seen before

I never felt so cold while he made me out to be a villain

He held me back from the world as he engulfed me in his troubled mind

I was at my lowest point and I told him I wanted to leave this place

He said "Your goals aren't right, there are bigger things to prioritize,"

He asked me one last time

"What's it worth to cut me from your life?"

Abandon all that I have worked so hard for

And I screamed no!

I've tried to tell you the truth but you've heard enough

Oh, feed your soul into mine

I've tried to tell you the truth but you've heard enough

Oh, feed your soul into mine

Oh, feed your soul into mine

Oh, feed your soul into mine

Oh, feed your soul into mine

Oh, feed your soul into mine
