lyrics

Don't look at me,
You'll see the wretched child I am
Don't talk to me,
You'll hear how frightened I am
I hate the lies,
I hate the games,
I hate pretending to be a Saint
Seems like every day my soul is martyred to this charade

Leave me alone,
Or don't you know who my parents are?
Everyone knows what they've done
I am cursed with their lineage,
For I carry their blood
A disgrace!
For I am the offspring of abominations

Choir:
You shall be forged,
You've had all the time in the world to decide,
Yet you refuse to do
what's necessary to heal

This part of myself
I’ve always dismissed
Too frightening, ashamed,
By grief I’ve been kissed.
If you look hard enough
You could find half of me
In blankets of sorrow
I bend the knee.

Choir:
What are you, deaf?
We are calling, but you refuse to hear
You leave us with no choice,
You’re holding onto decay!

Chorus:
Everything is fated
To soon disappear
Since I’ve always hated
The thoughts ever near
There’s no end, no release,
I cannot escape my own Self,
Transforming
Choir:
We will remove the dross
from your iron heart, ahhh
In this fire, it is time!
A pure vessel is born
and thus shall never fade

Whisper:
I hate the lies,
I hate the games,
I hate pretending

Spoken:
Humans are so stubborn!
It takes pain to get their attention
They say they know better,
Yet their fear becomes a driving force
Unbridled, they spin out of control

Choir:
Cradle your fear,
Will you listen to your intuition?
But you're still trying to hide
your own shadow

Chorus:
Everything is fated
To soon disappear
Since I’ve always hated
The thoughts ever near
There’s no end, no release,
I cannot escape my own Self,
Transforming
Choir:
We will remove the dross
from your iron heart, ahhh
In this fire, it is time
a pure vessel is born
and thus shall never fade
