I Sever

I shed this skin like a weightless veil Wrapped around a statue I flooded the past to see what would surface And there was nothing to hold onto Familiar hands reached out To pull me to the ground The knife in my back Was the jewel in your crown Misplaced dependancy A slave to the anxiety But distance doesn't always make those faces fade I am torn in two Can't distinguish the lies from truth Cut through this world that I am attached to Cohort to bane I sever, I sever Crooked reflection Disposed to separate Cohort to bane I sever, I sever Crooked reflection I'll cut the cord completely Remnants of the past resound Never to late to burn those bridges down Cohort to bane I sever, I sever Crooked reflection Disposed to separate Cohort to bane I sever, I sever Crooked reflection I'll cut the cord completely Here I now lay this to rest Fare thee well my ally Feels like I may drift forever On this fire I will burn Here I now lay this to rest Fare thee well my ally Feels like I may drift forever
