What We Are

This is a poison everyone knows
It runs through my rivers
Created and cured by the same
And it will flow
Tear through these holds
And rip away my heart
With an effort so constrained
This is the venom in my veins
This is the venom in my veins
Created and cured by the same
This is the venom in my veins
Ive spoken reckless words
And I know Ive built a bed of unrest
That destroys my heart once I lay my head down
Destroys the crutches that Ive built
I thought they were sound
We are the reasons for health and light
For illness and weakness
It will flow from my body to yours
An infection that cant be cured
We are the reasons for health and light
For illness and weakness
We will tear through these holds
We will tear through these holds
Or we will keep them strong
We are the reasons for health and light
For illness and weakness
We will tear through these holds
Or we will keep them strong
We will keep them strong
With an effort so constrained
This is venom in my veins
Created, cured by the same
By the same
Ive chosen selfless over selfishness
Ive left a bed of disgust and unrest
Destroyed the crutches that I built myself
I found that they were never sound
It wont consume my heart anymore
And I know Ive built a bed of peace
That restores my heart once I lay my head down
Rebuilds the crutches that I destroyed myself
I plead to change my life, just before I dream
And wake to realize that change is inside me
Weare the reasons for health and light
For illness and weakness
We will tear through these holds
We will tear through these holds
Or we will keep them strong
We are the reasons for health and light
