lyrics

Lying to myself and everyone close to me
Maintaining a safe arms-reach, manufactured scarcity
This barricade is comforting, safe familiarity
But this self-imposed solitude is killing me

Winter slips in through the cracks
Leaving its traces upon my skin
The walls' foundations are crumbling
The outside's prying hands crawling in

I wonder if what we see, can it be, insight to this entity
Is there more to me?
Wearing these armored plates suffocates, nothing new can be sown
Unmake this stone

Live beneath this mask of might: none will need to know
Failing upwards makes a life: all it can bestow

Am I just a shallow nothing of a human being with fuck all to say?
Am I just some white noise crowding up the airways blocking off another's way?
Will I be discovered; an imposter posing as a worthy one?
If I am to be exposed, let this be the hour when the work is begun

The windows to the soul are opening
These truths are laid bare
(Live beneath this mask of might)
Am I afraid of anything
We may find there?
(Failing upwards makes a life
Failing upwards makes a life)

First steps out beyond the veil
Tethering, severing, growing thin
The unknown embraces me
So another story can begin

I wonder if what we see, can it be, insight to this entity
Is there more to me?
Wearing these armored plates suffocates, nothing new can be sown
Unmake this stone
