"Shatter" lyrics

"Shatter"

Blood rushes to my head, I feel it rising now
How should I live my life? No doubt you'll tell me now
The pattern never ends, the source is where I stand
Can't reap the seeds unsown, we're slaves to running sands

I lend my hand, you're falling
You turn your head, I'm on my knees
Can't face the fear of starting over

Are you doing this for the right reasons?
Do you even know what's right or wrong?
I'm reaching out into the smoke, yeah
It shouldn't be this hard to see at all

No more questioning my worth
For this revelation I will burn
I'd give anything
Just to come back down to earth

I lend my hand, you're falling
You turn your head, I'm on my knees
Can't face the fear of starting over

Are you doing this for the right reasons?
Do you even know what's right or wrong?
I'm reaching out into the smoke
It shouldn't be this hard
So tell me who you are now
My vision of you is just a blur
I'm reaching out into the smoke, yeah
It shouldn't be this, shouldn't be this hard to see at all

The thoughts that keep you awake
Unsure if you'll bend or break
And all the things that you say, I burn for it
The thoughts that keep you awake
Unsure if you'll bend or break
And all the things that you say, I burn
I burn for it, I burn for it
The thoughts that keep you awake
Unsure if you'll bend or break
And all the things that you say, I burn again
Again
Again
Again
Again
The thoughts that keep you awake
Unsure if you'll bend or break
And all the things that you say, I burn again

Are you doing this for the right reasons?
Do you even know what's right or wrong?
I'm reaching out into the smoke
It shouldn't be this hard (Shouldn't be this hard)
So tell me who you are now (Tell me who you are now)
My vision of you is just a blur
I'm reaching out into the smoke, yeah
It shouldn't be this, shouldn't be this hard
