Sharpened Skies

Fading light pulls me under Staring at walls that stare back nights like this I chase the ghost inside Pulling at my prangle, pulling at my pride Every scar I hid now screams for air Questioning the weight I choose to bear Heartbeats echo louder in the dark Building storms within this fragile heart I'm breaking open Tearing through the lies I see the storm in my own eyes All the pain I buried starts to rise Introspection cuts like sharpened skies From what I deny Fingers trace the lines of yesterday's fight Doubts like thorns, they pierce the quiet night What if I shatter? What if I hit? What if I heal? Voices in my head, they beg and they steal Tension coils, ready to unwind Truth is the blade that carves, marves my mind I'm breaking open Tearing through the lies I see the storm in my own eyes All the pain I buried starts to rise Introspection cuts like sharpened skies From what I deny Scream it out, let the fragments fall Raw and ragged, answering the call No heroes here, just me and my fall Rising from the ashes after all I'm breaking open Tearing through the lies I see the storm in my own eyes All the pain I buried starts to rise I'm breaking open Tearing through the lies I see the storm in my own eyes All the pain I buried starts to rise Introspection cuts like sharpened skies From what I deny Fading now But the fire remains In the wreck Through the pouring rain Through the pouring rain Through the pouring rain
