Idle Hands Lyrics by As Artifacts

In Blood and Light - EP

0

My bones are weak, my mind is torn
I'm crawling through the darkness
I can’t see anything, anything at all

Deception hides as my veins are running dry
I'm losing sight, I can't determine day from night
My stomach is turning, my vision is blurring
When will I regain consciousness?
Will I keep drowning or find my sanity?
I cannot let this eat me alive

This time I’ll take a stand
So sick and tired of running away
Every day is the same

Held under your thumb
Broken and wasting away
Unable to stand, my will is crumbling
You tried to fight back but it's too late and I'm over it
You tried to fight back but it's too late and I'm over it

This time you'll probably think that I'll just stand in line, get left behind
Stay lost among the sheep you blindly lead
Led away to their slaughter
You'll look at we built for ourselves
You’ll lie and you’ll steal
Tear it down just to watch us fall
Expect us to be conquered
Lie down and beg for the life you offer

Victims of the circumstance
All we wanted was a place to call home
Raise yourself up a little bit higher
When you come crashing down you'll be lost in my shadow

So throw me to the waves, I’ll put my faith in the see
The tide will save me while it drags you away

I will no longer submit to that what's holding me back
I've lived too long with failure as a standard
It's time I draw the line and redefine
This addiction to surrender
I’m taking back what's mine
This stagnation burns, it burns our hearts
It burns our fucking minds
You made me so weak, but I found strength again

This time you'll probably think that I'll just stand in line, get left behind
So look at what we've built for ourselves
You tried and you tried to tear us down, but we watched you fall
We overcame, we conquered the sorry excuse for a life you offered
You made me so weak but I found strength again
