Burn It // Bury ItWe'll take it back to the sourceBack to the heart of the problem Cut back the stem and dig it up from the roots Black blood, runs deep Through the earth past the mountains And down to the sea I won't wait for these ties to bind me To finish the noose I'll carry on, I'll cut lose And bury the parts of me that I left behind when I lost you Its clear to see that this is going too fast Going too fast maybe I should slow this down but I don't know how And now I feel like a freight train get out of my way Cause I'm coming of the tracks so move before it's too late Time moves in mysterious ways But I've finally found the words So I'll put them in a melody We will bend and we'll break But I'd rather let it burn me than bury me We will bend and we'll break I'd rather that than admit this is happening Oh it's clear to see I just can't believe this is happening Digging dirt on my hands and knees As I search for salvation in the midst of this tragedy But now I'm just like winter Barren and cold with no love for the sun light Isolated... and the silence is deafening Will I leave myself here to wither away And in the darkest of nights I'll pay with my bones to settle the tithe Oh, we are more than just flesh and bone We are more than just skin and soul Hear my words in the ebb and flow "Dear god, I'll be my own reckoning" Was it so easy to run? I feel the sadness surround me And I've only myself to blame I wish the exit, was easier to find It's not the end, it's the journey we take |
