Lifeknot

Opened up my eyes and what I saw it only made me realize
That I am weak and there is nothing that comes close
To what it feels to be enslaved to this old shell
I am pretending is myself

What I live just can't be real
How I long to stop the fall

I can't breathe through all the smoke that's burning everything
That's left inside me
Swimming in an endless sea of what I once believed
Could make me whole again

Now I need some space cause I am suffocating
Lost without a trace, out on a journey to the sun
The only source that could refill my heart with hope
But it's too late, my eyes are far too tired to see

What I live just can't be real
I've been here for far too long

I can't breathe through all the smoke that's burning everything
That's left inside me
Swimming in an endless sea of what I once believed
Could make me whole again

How I'll know what is for real
Is there something left to feel
I got thorns around my soul
There's no strength in me no more
I'm heading downwards
These chains rip my skin

I have lost sight
They say living is easy when eyes are wide shut
I remember a time when we were bold enough
To look into the bright light

I can't breathe through all the smoke that's burning everything
That's left inside me
Swimming in an endless sea of what I once believed
Could make me whole again
