Sword Lyrics by Sufferer

Sufferer

2017

Breaking through the normalcy
The panic makes its entrance
New glass upon the floor, it only mingles with the old
How can I feel so fucking guarded and be totally defenseless?
Parts of me are burning, parts of me are cold
A part of me feels so goddamn apart from me, it's scaring me

[Pre-Chorus]
Try to pull myself together, gain composure
Take a breath and just hold it, hold it!
Now exhale
I am in control and if I wait, the feeling passes
Now hold up, just hold up
Though this newly founded confidence is admirable
It's tattered and it's frayed and now it's standing in my way
So just cut the act!
No one has their life together
No one has it figured out!
But they all make the best of it while you take the worst parts and

[Chorus]
Stitch them all together
Make an effigy and stick it full of pins so you'll remember
You're in this alone
You made yourself a martyr
And it feels so good to fall on the sword
It feels so good to fall on the sword
But what the fuck are we falling for?

[Verse]
Breaking through the confidence
The panic grabs a hold of my neck
And drags me through the shatters closer to the door
Whether it's an entrance or an exit is up to you, it mentions
Parts of me are screaming, some part of me can't make out a word
I can't make out a word!
I can't make out a word!

[Pre-Chorus]
Paranoid and nauseous, I collapse
We’ve got him right where we want him
Keep it up, keep it up, keep it up now!
Tear his fucking heart from his chest
Right out
Make a run for it
Salvage what you can and just

[Chorus]
Stitch them all together
Make an effigy and stick it full of pins so you'll remember
You're in this alone
You made yourself a martyr
And it feels so good to fall on the sword
It feels so good to fall on the sword
But what the fuck are we falling for?

[Bridge]
Never drowning
Never really drowning but never really out of the water
Never drowning
Never really drowning but never really out of the water!

It surrounds me
Picks me up into the sky and wraps me up until I'm drowning
Don't bother to save me
Let the waves take hold and change me

I dove in!
Tried to put myself together but the pieces never fit to begin (I dove in)
I dove in!
You can’t pull somebody out if you have never known how deep they were in
