Bearing Witness Lyrics

A knife cuts through the guts you spilled

Over my front lawn so you could feel

Better about all the shit you dealt

To me

As the night wind provides chills

And you swore you flushed all the pills

The red and white lights bathe the hills

Behind the house as you lay still

And i can not paint pictures

Of landscapes without you in them

Floating in the background, bearing witness

To destruction you once swore to me was imminent

Streams of light born from the sun

And cracks in blinds that'd wake you up

Your vampire eyes would turn blood shot

So i always kept curtains shut

You said it all was wilderness

Anything beyond your bed

So you'd cover up, sheets past your head

And hide for your life day and night

And i can not paint pictures

Of landscapes without you in them

Floating in the background, bearing witness

To destruction you once swore to me was imminent
