Severence Lyrics by Altars

Opposition

2011

[Intro]
Sever the ties

[Verse 1]
There are things in life that hold us back
"It's not in me, it's not in me"
If you don't look, you'll fall off the track
"I can't let go, I can't let go"
It is up to you to look away
"I'll just stay here, I'll just stay safe"
There is an answer
There is a way
"I need an answer, I need a way
I cannot stay in this godforsaken place."

[Bridge]
Can you not see the hope that lies ahead?
Your sight is stuck in the here and now
Can you not see the hope that lies ahead?

[Verse 2]
There are things in life that hold us back
"It's not in me, it's not in me"
If you don't look, you'll fall off the track
"I can't let go, I can't let go"
It is up to you to look away
"I'll just stay here, I'll just stay safe"
There is an answer
There is a way
"I need an answer, I need a way
I cannot stay in this godforsaken place."

[Outro]
You will never learn
Until you let go
You only held me back
Now it's time to let go
