"With Arms That Bind And Lips That Lock" lyrics

"With Arms That Bind And Lips That Lock"

Bird in a cage, lock it up and forget about
Saving yourself, an excuse for your nihilism
Free from the bind, your existence is still a prison
Bird in a cage, lock it up

Cross every threshold, I'll just stare down, you won't look away
I'll run at any second, break it down, fade away, repeat it
I can't swallow hope, retract my solace, I can't stand the fray
I'll separate everything

So I'm running to drown in something new
This breath won't start again
I'm so damn sorry this was never (When it's over now)

My plan (Nothing's left for you here)
As the sun sets
Your ember still burns

Bite your tongue, make sure this is what you want
It's over, I'm over the way that you lie straight through your teeth
I'm overcome by the way you chose to speak
It's over, I'm over the words that will take a part of me
It's the last time

Oh god, when it's over, nothing's left for
I can't stand there knowing that you'll still care
Please don't stop me, my conscious still can't quell this storm
It's over, talk to me

Why can't I break the cage?
Escape my heart

Ready, set, run away
Oh my hollow chest
Don't forsake me

Think of what we had (Would you follow me back to there?)
Look at what you caused, would you take it all back when I go?
When I go, would you follow me back to the place that this all started? (I never wanted to know)
When I go, would you follow me back to the place that we once haunted?

That I've been set up to fall
Fall

Take back your safety, I don't deserve your grace
Take back your safety, your embrace
Take back your safety, I don't deserve your grace
Please don't let me go

Stay still, bird in a cage
You're so safe
Stay still, bird in a cage in my heart
Brace the storm within myself
