[Verse 1]

Oh solace, I fear the man I might become

Your hypocrite, your hired gun

I count my demons one by one

And you chase me as I run

I've seen your face in every bar

And all those late nights in her car

I heard God meets you where you are

Not just an apathetic hand out in the stars


[Chorus]

Oh solace, we are a broken family

At least we have sincerity

Let us rejoice and not deceive

There is hope out there for you

Like there's hope out there for me


[Verse 2]

Oh solace, please send a crash to wake me up

The sound of your insistent drum

I need to know that you're enough

I am a skeptic and a son

If you are bigger than belief

If you are more than eyes can see

Then show me how I am to be

And from the roots I'll learn to breath


[Chorus]

Oh solace, we are a broken family

At least we have sincerity

Let us rejoice and not deceive

There is hope out there for you

Like there's hope out there for


[Bridge]

Cut me like a sword, cut me like a sword

I want to show off my battle scars

Who I was before, who I was before

I'll drown him in an ocean of my father's blood
