"It Comes From Within" lyrics

"It Comes From Within"

When did the walls grow this tall
And the darkness begin to fall?
When did I lose the sense of control?
How much can I overcome?
And I'm lying here
I'm tired I'm worn
It comes from within

It's taking me over
It's making me weak
Brought my doubts to the surface
It's leaving me helpless with no air to breathe
I belong to the shallow
To the ones who praise and retreat
I stumble and falter

Who's there to catch me when I stumble?
Reduce the pain of my fall?
Be my embrace of comfort?
And the voice that ease it all?
And I'm lying here
So tired so torn
Threat comes from within

It's taking me over
It's making me weak
Brought my doubts to the surface
It's leaving me helpless with no air to breathe
I belong to the shallow
To the ones who praise and retreat
I stumble and falter
And it's taking me over

For as long as I remember
I fought this war alone
And the blood on my hands, the weight of the cross
Are bricks in a wall
Built from vengeance

It's taking me over
It's making me weak
Brought my doubts to the surface
It's leaving me helpless with no air to breathe
I belong to the shallow
To the ones who praise and retreat
I stumble and falter
