Beneath The Veil - Intellectual

[Verse 1]

Elation eludes me, always an empty shell within

Salvation can leave me open, then where do I begin?

I find that this heart grows colder, shallow breathing in

Damnation will cure the hunger crawling on your skin

I know there's blood upon your pillow

I seek the will to be alive, I doubt that I'll find it

Beneath the veil another broken person

Stagnation will hold you over until the bitter end

Sedation will hold you closer, become your only friend

I find when the mind gеts bolder it only makes you bend

That dеmon who's on your shoulder waiting to expand

I know there's blood upon your pillow

I seek the will to be alive, I doubt that I'll find it

Beneath the veil another broken person

I need to keep the pain inside, that's where I hide it

I bleed the vein to cleanse the sacred poison

Well now, I'm dying to know

Why do the bruises still show?

Well now, I'm dying to know

I know there's blood upon your pillow

The kind you can't even explain away

I seek the will to be alive, I doubt that I'll find it

Beneath the veil another broken person

I need to keep the pain inside, that's where I hide it

I bleed the vein to cleanse the sacred poison

Sacred poison
