Plague Them The Most

Won't kneel no more
For you to simply cut off my head
In the name of mercy

Can't bow no more
These voices are not my own
I am the patient son
Twist my truth to stone

I can feel you
But I don't remember you
I don't remember you

Unwind your hands
From around my neck

Don't bend no more
For you
Sever my head for kindness

The dirt spills over
Fabricated decay
Through blinded eyes
All I see is waste

I can feel you
But I don't remember you
I don't remember you
A sanctuary filled with faces of strangers
Broken mirrors once whole
Now they distort me

Unwind your hand
From around my neck
Unwind your hands
From around my neck

I bend no more
I bend no more for you
Unwind your hands
Around my neck
I kneel no more for you
Unwind your hands
Around my neck
Never again to grind my teeth
In the name of kindness
Never again to bite my tongue
In the name of mercy

"Mercedes"

My past was a blurred photograph
A crowded room with no where left to move
I know now
I know now
Years anchored in my chest
I know now
Mistook comfort for love

Treading water
Learning about myself alone
Through the haze I saw you
A lighthouse in the dark
Leading me to land I thought would vanish
Grateful on my knees
Fall in your sand
Fall in your sand

I'm alive
I'm alive
Offer you my name
As the waters churn
Offer you my name
Oceans fade away

When the seasons change
Our bonds remade
I will be yours
If you'll be mine
When the seasons change
Our bonds remade
I will be yours
If you'll be mine
When the seasons change
Our bonds remade
I will be yours
If you'll be mine
When the seasons change
Our bonds remade
I will be yours
If you'll be mine
