The Rift Lyrics

No, don't try to feed me the lie

That I am nothing more than skin and

Bone when you've been starving the fire

You buried deep within yourself

You claim you're shackled, but you put them on yourself

The lone combatant in this battle who won't ever ask for help

Deep inside yourself you'll find a wealth of what you stand for

But every time I ask you'll never tell

Why you're always mad,

And why you're always sad

And asking me for answers

Only you would have

So, if you want the truth

You'll find it deep inside of you

How you gonna love me

When you don't love yourself

Tell me how you're gonna love me

When you don't love yourself

You've got to draw these lines inside your mind so you can know

That happiness is something that you can't rip from another soul

You have to sow it on your own so it can grow

And when it blooms as something beautiful you'll know

Why you're always mad

And why you're always sad

And asking me for answers

Only you would have

So, if you want the truth

You'll find it deep inside of you

The rift within your mind

Was meant to be combined

So, tell me how you're gonna love me

When you don't love yourself

How you gonna love me

When you don't love yourself

One day you're gonna learn that

If you can't love yourself

Then you can't love

Nobody else

So, tell me how you're gonna love me

When you don't love yourself

How you gonna love me

You don't love yourself

One day you're gonna learn that

If you can't love yourself

Then you can't love

Nobody else

You can't love nobody else

Why you're always mad

And why you're always sad

And asking me for answers

Only you would have

So, if you want the truth

You'll find it deep inside of you

Why you're always mad

And why you're always sad

And asking me for answers

Only you would have

So, if you want the truth

You'll find it deep inside of you

Yeah, I think you've always known

The rift within your mind

You are so much more than what you're seeing now

Was meant to be combined

But you've gotta choose to believe it now
