Dachau Lyrics by Illustrator (KY)

Identity

2015

[Refrain]
However dark these steps may be
Oh, I never seen a man look down at his feet
To make sure, to make sure
They're still assembled to their knees

[Verse 1]
You're not a man, you're not a man
Was the oath a lie?
Or are we gambling with the truth?

[Pre-Chorus]
The mistakes that I made in no way justify
The nights I have spent within these walls

[Chorus]
Wondering if you would
Cut off the excess and rebuild desire
To create what you think will be a bеtter world
Whatever thе cost, we are your canvas
You are the surgeon, a mirror[?] of skin and bone
Of bone

[Breakdown]
We suffered enough from the hate
Of a man who's trying to bury the world
In the end, the broken man will be swayed[?]
By the sight[?], by the sight[?] of his own knife

[Refrain]
However dark these steps may be
Oh, I never seen a man look down at his feet
To make sure, to make sure
They're still assembled to their knees

[Bridge]
You bury my skin with rusted needles
That break my veins with narcotic lies
No longer will I be a number [?]

[Chorus]
(Because I won't let you...)
Cut off the excess and rebuild desire
To create what you think will be a better world
Whatever the cost, we are your canvas
You are the surgeon, a mirror[?] of skin and bone
Of bone

[Breakdown/Outro]
We suffered enough from the hate
Of a man who's trying to bury the world
In the end, the broken man will be swayed[?]
By the sight[?], by the sight[?] of his own knife
