The Red River

As darkness calls, I am leaving my sanity in pieces It's twisting and turning, corrupting my mind, twisting and turning Feeding the rage that is growing beyond return, cogwheels are churning Raging and spreading its ash as it burns (I thought I knew you) I thought I knew you Like you knew me Is there no relief at all? Is there resolution in forgiveness? Pain goes away, but scars are forever I rip myself open in anger I will let my demons show For something within me has broken It's screaming and yearning to grow For as long as my heart bleeds a river I will let the red rivеr flow A harrowing crack in the surface Exposing the ragе and the beast that dwells below Smashing, breaking, kicking, burning And ferociously demand Damn you all, it's all your fault (it's all your fault) I'm reduced to contempt where I stand (shaking where I stand) Pushing the limit containing my misery Borders are failing, anger is an animal trying to be free (I thought I knew you) I thought I knew you Like you knew me Is there no relief at all? Is there resolution in forgiveness? Pain goes away, but scars are forever I rip myself open in anger I will let my demons show (I will let my demons show) For something within me has broken It's screaming and yearning to grow For as long as my heart bleeds a river I will let the red rivеr flow A harrowing crack in the surface Exposing the ragе and the beast that dwells below I thought I knew you Like you knew me Is there no escape at all? Is there resolution in forgiveness? I rip myself open in anger I will let my demons show For something within me has broken It's screaming and yearning to grow For as long as my heart bleeds a river I will let the red rivеr flow A harrowing crack in the surface Exposing the ragе and the beast that dwells below!
