lyrics

I was stuck, taking a second thought.
Before I’d take my next breath.
I was trapped in an earthly purgatory,
Between Heaven and Hell,
Between Life and Death.

Erase, erase, erase
This fucking lust for death.
This raging sea, is washing over me, and I’m reaching those freezing depths.
I praise, I praise, I praise,
All that I have left,
That raging sea, that washed over me, showed me the beauties in the scars I have left.

There is beauty in these scars of mine,
For so long, I was the one who was blind.

I thought I’d never again feel alive.
But I realised this ache is life,
Happiness is just passing by.
But lord knows, I’ll pass my time.

This world has left me with a heart of stone, my grounding anchor.
What good is that? Stone hearts don’t break, they shatter.
I spent so long thinking I’d never again feel alive.
But I realised, this ache is life, and happiness is just passing by.
