The Settlement Lyrics by Issues

Issues

2014

[Intro: Michael Bohn]
"Until death" used to mean something more
Than a proverb framed on the walls of a broken home

[Verse 1: Michael Bohn]
Closed doors can only hide so much
Pacing through this hallway, I listen in disgust
As you divide my mind and force my years into minutes
Destroy the hands of time, the hands that made me whole

[Chorus: Tyler Carter, Michael Bohn]
What if I become a silhouette of this very same thing?
Then everything you taught me seems to start fading
Oh, how am I now to survive as a heart divided
Between the very hands that made me whole?
Did you even notice, all I wanted was more of your time
Wasted on hating, when love's what should've made you blind
Did you even notice, all I wanted was more of your time
Wasted on hating, when love's what should've made you blind

[Verse 2: Michael Bohn]
You can only forgive so much
Before you give up because there's no trust
At least you tried and that's just fine
But how the hell do I know I'm not next in line?
It's not my fault
So why am I in the middle of this burning bridge?

[Chorus: Tyler Carter; Michael Bohn]
Tell me, oh, how am I now to survive as a heart divided
Between the very hands that made me whole?
Did you even notice, all I wanted was more of your time
Wasted on hating, when love's what should've made you blind
Did you even notice, all I wanted was more of your time
Wasted on hating, when love's what should've made you blind

[Outro: Michael Bohn]
I am the one who suffers from your bullshit
I'm the one who suffers
My world divided by the hands that made me whole
