Murder By Death - Searcher Lyrics

Murder By Death Lyrics

"Searcher"

I used to be a fortress
That smouldered with hate
You plied me with kindness
Marched through my gates

Then a feeling of hope started to shine through
All the cracks that I used to blame on you
And replaced them with one burning truth, I burn for you

Now I am a searcher
Trying to reclaim
That part of myself
As if it could change

What I hid from myself, hurt me and hurt you
A spell of protection that split us in two
Now all that's replaced with one burning truth, I burn for you

A flicker of flame started to poke through
All the cracks that I used to blame on you
It illuminates, becomes something new
The fire starts covering you too

I burn for you
I burn for you
I am a searcher
I search for you
