"Atonement" lyrics

"Atonement"

Turmoil, empty faces in a whirlpool
Removing pity with a sharp tool
Seems you're always the one to blame

Sour, crumbled, ready to devour
Broken pieces of desire
Wanted freedom, but all you got was blame

You've always been in chains

The final lie
The last denial
Realized that it's all because of you
The final lie
The last denial
Realized that it's all because of you
Cannot deny
You're standing trial
And again, it's all because of you

Upholding your appearance for the loving
People that you owe nothing
The mutuality was never there

Storing all the criticism for you
Making sure that you have no clue
Of how to regain your faith

Aspire to be swallowed by the fire
That your ego has acquired
The deception has cut through
And it's all because of you

The final lie
The last denial
Realized that it's all because of you
Cannot deny
You're standing trial
And it's true that it's all because of you

Cannot deny
I can't deny, I can't deny
That it's all because of you
It's all because of you
