[Verse 1]

It came like subtle dusk

But left a stable mark

Shadows rushed like river veins

An eclipse across the heart

And as it spread its venom bled

Into the mind it weaves

Deny the clear suppress the fear

Or a victim you will be

[Pre-Chorus 1]

Your severed hands are reaching out

To claw the cement walls of doubt

[Chorus]

As we breathe we raise a fatal breed

A brain in silent plead

To mend the stem of the disease

We are what we betray

A mask will find a way

To hide a soul that is decayed

[Verse 2]

And still it stayed like anchors blade

Latched to an entity

You ride the waves in hopes to break a pattern into the sea

A latent fortress shields a cure with ease

This ball and chain paves the way for many lives in need

[Pre-Chorus 2]

Misery is the price you’ll pay

For in denial your thoughts will stay

[Chorus]

As we breathe we raise a fatal breed

A brain in silent plead

To mend the stem of the disease

We are what we betray

A mask will find a way

To hide a soul that is decayed

[Bridge]

Again into the blackened woods

No path to light the way

What I once relied on

All turns to grey

[Guitar Solo]

[Chorus]

As we breathe we raise a fatal breed

A brain in silent plead

To mend the stem of the disease

We are what we betray

A mask will find a way

To hide a soul that is decayed

[Outro]

A mask will find a way!

To hide a soul that is decayed!
