lyrics

Exit a battered doorframe
Eyes strain through such radiant light
And as they adapt, I take a step
I inch forward

We set forth below the afterglow
In the same town, but with all of its bones exposed
Why can’t I recognize this path?
It’s all got a couple of layers peeled back
Once green grass, now charred black
Earth crackles under my step

What have we learned, through all we’ve lost?
Reaching for a second chance
I swear that we’ll rebuild all that has fallen
Concept of home defined by the scars that we wear

Once were the days we had stable ground
But now we’re left to reminisce amongst the wreckage
I remember, I remember when

It was us against the wall, in a familiar fashion
When what you’re leaning on collapses, you learn what passion really is
All the time spent underground, separated from the masses
When your bed sheets turn to ashes, you learn where terror truly lives

On the surface
Finding ourselves through the depths of calamity
And I thank you for being my reason to save myself

I held your hand, but it was empty
And I asked for just a single thing
To share some shelter ‘til the weather passed
I know that we could have outlasted our surroundings dwindling

So why was it too much to ask?
To take my side in this dichotomy
To keep just a single thing intact?
You dug yourself out while you buried me

I’m still asking why
Why was it too much to ask?
Take my side in this dichotomy
To keep just a single thing intact?
You dug yourself out and buried me
