Do Not Let Me Sink - Empty

Black tongues

Dripping fabrications

There’s no indication

That you’ll change your ways

I’ve sunken down to this place

I’m crawling out this hole

Pull me to my feet

Let me take control

Our lips have gone numb

Every word’s a cold gun

Pressed against our head

Look what we’ve become

No love escaping our lungs

The malice that we spread

Is better left unsaid

Sharp eyes

Wander self righteously

Always darting between

Wrong and clouded grey

May peace find us

Let hope fill our veins

I’m not lost

Yet still I’ll shout your name

Our lips have gone numb

Every word’s a cold gun

Pressed against our head

Look what we’ve become

No love escaping our lungs

The malice that we spread

Is better left unsaid

Vices wrapping around my throat

I can’t breathe, I start to choke

This won’t be the end of me

I’ll rise again from the dust and debris

Our lips have gone numb

Every word’s a cold gun

Pressed against our head

Look what we’ve become

No love escaping our lungs

The malice that we spread

Is better left unsaid
