Poison drowns my head
Somebody draw out the venom and leave me to dry
I've lost all my faith
All I know is that I'm alive and I'm walking circles, running out of places I can hide
Tell me how my fears aren't justified
Promise me I'll never fucking fade
I thought we were meant to do more than shovel our graves
and lay down to die once we've overcome the thrill of waking up each day
I'm already dead
Someone else just grow and take my place
Castles of sand wash away with rain
The bodies of men will rot
The burdens we carry will bury our bones
The rain will wash us away
Choking the skies
Raping the dirt
Caking our hands with mud
Robbing ourselves of this innocent earth
Constantly spilling its blood in our drinking wells
Seasons come and go but castles wash away
We'll wash away
Life will grow anew from fertile ash
Leaves of fall will coat the earth and paint it red
We'll paint it red
Life will grow anew from their decay
Spring will come again
