Dangerous Excuses

from Through Glass Eyes by At Dawn's Edge

/

lyrics

Stand across from a mirror and look into your eyes. Don’t try to erase me, don’t try to convince me of your lies. Stop preaching blind truths that heal your painful situation with a comfortable excuse.. Don’t bring me down. It’s not easy to let go now and embrace the open wound. My scars define me when bruises never would.One body, one mind, yet my mind is distorted. I set fire to the parasite. You simply welcome its lesser embrace. Silence won’t sway the oceans, drifting you ashore. The storm it will transpire, so cleanse your hands with disaster. Build a new path from dignity to pride. You feel yourself sinking down. Sinking deep, breathe again. And wouldn’t it feel so good to scream instead of justifying? ‘Cause I hate this wretched feeling! You feel it in your stomach, sinking deep down, breathe. You swallow it down, too cowardly to speak. Let go, let go, let go now and embrace, embrace yourself and shed your skin. Laugh instead of grinding. To answer your own question, yes. To scream instead of justifying. You feel yourself sinking down. Sinking deep, breathe again. And wouldn’t it feel so good to scream instead of justifying? ‘Cause I hate this wretched feeling! Pulling thread to close my wound. Disinfecting lies. From suffocating to invigorating. High regard for myself. As reality batters and bruises me, I shed my dilapidated skin.
