"The Weight Of Sin" lyrics

"The Weight Of Sin"

Soul crushing weight
Leave me underpinned by a concubine
Don't you know I know my mistakes
Will leave you contemplating about your demise
Resent me with all that you are
The harm that you want, it's all in vain

Well, if the barriers are broken
My allegiances won't last
What's the point of moving forward if you can't forget the past?
It feels like the weight of a thousand suns

I don't even love you the way that I used to when I was still part of your plan
Now I am a fortress
No one gets in, you won't see me again (Me again)

Take everything and leave me empty-handed
'Cause it's a pointless conversation
Yeah, it's an endless pit of loss
It isn't safe to be a stranger, can't predict the fall
How long the damage lasts

You wear me out 'cause you know I can take it
Lecture me on all the ways you think that I should pay
I'll take the fall for my pride and my failures
Rending me with all this malice
Now all my sin is a burden
Feels like the weight of a thousand suns

I don't even love you the way that I used to when I was still part of your plan
Now I am a fortress
No one gets in, you won't see me again

You'll never face the truth
How many times do I?
How many times do I gotta say it?
We bleed the same
Blood
And now it's running down the stairs
So much for letting go

All that we have known and cared for
Will sink into the abyss of a new Dark Age made more sinister
And perhaps more protracted
By the lights of perverted science
