Under the Surface Lyrics

We can't just overlook this outcome

It always ends the same

And we are both to blame

Could we ever truly outrun

The memories soaked in pain

And wash away the stain

Nothing lasts forever

We're a shattered glass endeavor

Too broken now to render

Is there nothing left save

Could we eliminate the tension

The strains upon us pull

It feels impossible

And I don't even wanna mention

The way you bore a hole right through my soul

Because you never seem to listen

When I inquire of you to see my point of view

It's a flaw within our system

Because we can't undo

The hateful words we threw

Dissonant companions

Falling down into a canyon

Too blind to understand

Under the surface we're to blame

We will never never be the same

Can we ever ever find redemption

And be remade

I'm so tired of fighting in this never ending war

How'd we get here and why can't we restore

I'm a mess like dirty socks on my dresser

I cursed those you blessed and I hurt those you bled for

It's worse I let murderous thoughts enter and burn in my heart

Embers swirling onto my breath verbatim

I wish you were dead my words serve to sever

The nerves like thin thread that's unnerving right whatever

I stir it up like a chef and then serve it up like my pleasure

I'm worked up help me God I wanna be better

I know cuz I'm really not a people person

People turn against you people hurt you

People don't wanna bear other people's burdens

I know ain't no people perfect

People never think God we need discernment

Peel the curtain back so we see the serpent

Evil lurkin' yeah right beneath the surface

Keeping us from our single purpose we need

One heart one mind one body many parts

One Christ and I'm sorry for the scars I hide

I'm sorry for my pride

I'm sorry because I know that we're brothers

And some days I wanna kill you

But please know that I love you

We will never never be the same

Could we ever ever find redemption

And be remade

I'm so tired of fighting in this never ending war

How'd we get here and why can't we restore

Yeah why can't we restore

I'm so tired of fighting in this never ending war

How'd we get here and why can't we restore
