The Violence Within Lyrics

Stay out of my sight

Birds dig up thoughts

Buried in sands

Right by the lake where

We built our walls

We swim each day

In these rivers that flood

Now I say

Take it, or leave it

This path is unforgiving

I say

Make it, or steal it

This path will only take us home

Us home

But I think you lost control

I think you lost your road

Please prove me that I'm wrong

Please let these visions go

As numb ones learn to pray

A remedy awaits

A Sun that blooms and wakes

The violence within stays

While pictures of these ghosts

Leave birthmarks in the raw

The silent undertow

Will never let you go

Stay hidden in plain sight

Showing the way

To brighter skies

All light posts break

With the innocent touch

From a child's hate

As spring turns to fall

Now I say

Take it, or leave it

This path is unforgiving

I say

Make it, or steal it

This path will only take us home

Home

But I think you lost control

I think you lost your road

Please prove me that I'm wrong

Please let these visions go

As numb ones learn to pray

A remedy awaits

A Sun that blooms and wakes

The violence within stays

While pictures of these ghosts

Leave these scars in the raw

The silent undertow

Will never let you go

All the people I have ever known

Just another false story told

All the places that I ever saw

Disappear, horizons meet at dawn

Where do I go if there's no longer a way

Everywhere to be now feels the same

There is nothing left to hear or say

As I finally learn to praise the blame

Blame
