Bleed From Within - Ascend Lyrics

There’s a reason I can’t look you in the eye. Living in ignorance, a cruel disguise. Pockets full of greed. To see what hatred breeds, we must break the mask of pride. Strip the walls of satisfaction. Abide and comply. We built their pillars of gold. How will we survive? I watch the sun drain through the cracks in the sky. I’ll let you burn for all our hope was denied. Watch as the sun drains through the cracks in the sky. Return to bone, ascend into the night. There’s a reason why we preach hate, ‘cause we’re divided by our own disdain. Are we waiting to be saved? Or are we shattered by the truth we face? Witness truth in devastation, abide or deny. The script was written in stone, we’re prisoners in our minds. I feel the odds stacked against me. Unmistakable, unforgivable. Egos built on our paper fields. We break the mask of pride. We built these pillars of gold, how did we survive? I watch the sun drain through the cracks in the sky. I’ll let you burn for all our hope was denied. Watch as the sun drains through the cracks in the sky. Return to bone, Ascend into the night.
