"Dredge The Dark" lyrics
(feat. Kyle Medina)
Despondent
A forlorn cause
Incapacitated, tied to my thoughts
I'm losing count of my second guesses
Obscure what's real I'll push and suppress
Assimilate
The shadow self
Chemical cruelty I need to compel
A broken soul is worth searching for
The fragments left on the cutting room floor
Bound together for a reason
Finding confidence in my creation
Burn the idols I don't need them
All the hours spent it wasn't good enough?
Drain the water
Dredge the dark
Purge the pain before it rips you apart
They make the rules invite the few
They build the walls and smash them too
One door opens two close on you
They scratch their backs and stab your throat
Parade a trend so they can gloat
A tasteless fad beyond reproach
Your tears drown me a thousand times
I've swam within the dread for far too long
Pulled down to the deeper side of life
Do these people just wait for my swan song?
Apprehension fear misguided
Hesitation weak confided
We dipped our toe with no success
We walked the walk and weren't impressed
Return our roots and reassess
Bound together for a reason
Finding confidence in my creation
Burn the idols I don't need them
All the hours spent it wasn't good enough?
Drain the water
Dredge the dark
Purge the pain before it rips you apart
Apprehension fear misguided
Hesitation weak confided
Your tears drown me a thousand times
I've swam within the dread for far too long
Pulled down to the deeper side of life
Do these people just wait for my swan song?
Despondent
A forlorn cause
Incapacitated tied to my thoughts
I'm losing count of my second guesses
Obscure what's real I'll push and suppress
Assimilate
The shadow self
Chemical cruelty I need to compel
A broken soul is worth searching for
The fragments left on the cutting room floor
Idle time is rot for the mind
Correct this course and stick to the grind
Pandering to the fake and forced elite
Drowning my inner self or kill the art
Sacrifice a bitter price
I'll purge the pain and dredge the dark
A forlorn cause
Incapacitated, tied to my thoughts
I'm losing count of my second guesses
Obscure what's real I'll push and suppress
Assimilate
The shadow self
Chemical cruelty I need to compel
A broken soul is worth searching for
The fragments left on the cutting room floor
Bound together for a reason
Finding confidence in my creation
Burn the idols I don't need them
All the hours spent it wasn't good enough?
Drain the water
Dredge the dark
Purge the pain before it rips you apart
They make the rules invite the few
They build the walls and smash them too
One door opens two close on you
They scratch their backs and stab your throat
Parade a trend so they can gloat
A tasteless fad beyond reproach
Your tears drown me a thousand times
I've swam within the dread for far too long
Pulled down to the deeper side of life
Do these people just wait for my swan song?
Apprehension fear misguided
Hesitation weak confided
We dipped our toe with no success
We walked the walk and weren't impressed
Return our roots and reassess
Bound together for a reason
Finding confidence in my creation
Burn the idols I don't need them
All the hours spent it wasn't good enough?
Drain the water
Dredge the dark
Purge the pain before it rips you apart
Apprehension fear misguided
Hesitation weak confided
Your tears drown me a thousand times
I've swam within the dread for far too long
Pulled down to the deeper side of life
Do these people just wait for my swan song?
Despondent
A forlorn cause
Incapacitated tied to my thoughts
I'm losing count of my second guesses
Obscure what's real I'll push and suppress
Assimilate
The shadow self
Chemical cruelty I need to compel
A broken soul is worth searching for
The fragments left on the cutting room floor
Idle time is rot for the mind
Correct this course and stick to the grind
Pandering to the fake and forced elite
Drowning my inner self or kill the art
Sacrifice a bitter price
I'll purge the pain and dredge the dark
