Lyrics

When blackness kissed the crimson sky
The cataracts clouding my eyes was gone
Am I home?
Am I home?
When I could not apologize
When I no longer tried to fight
I thought
Am I home?
Am I home?
Have ruby bullets pierced right through my bones?
Have ruby bullets pierced through?
Can't say how far I've gone
Can't say how far I've gone
When met with utter vigilance
This armor turns to porcelain
When nerves are wrecked and counting down
Your finger nails cut through your eyebrows
How did you not give up?
The sick we cured became the poor
We fed them all, they wanted more
My god, the fault lines, the storm
Have ruby bullets pierced us to the core?
Have ruby bullets pierced through?
Can't say how far I've gone
Can't say how far I've gone
When met with utter vigilance
This armor turns to porcelain
Will you hold my head, whisper a long goodbye?
Will you nurse my damage, fill in my hollowed eyes?
Will you hold my hand or hold my breath tonight?
Will you hold my honor, hold my breath tight?
To trust you is to dig a grave
My master cuts my puppet strings
"Say, slave, can you swim or should I?
Should I cut right through your will to survive?
Have ruby bullets pierced you?"
Can't say how far I've gone
Can't say how far I've gone
When met with utter vigilance
This armor turns to porcelain
When met with utter vigilance
This armor turns to porcelain
