High Wire Escape Artist

I will never believe them (lies)
I’m sick of the weakness that controls me
Now that I’ve fallen, I will not repent



Bleed out all empathy
This vessel has no spirit left to hold on
To lies I’ve lived in full

How long can I hold tight
With every movement
Tension binds and denies
My true nature

The balance has shifted
Warped sick and twisted
Grabbing at angels when I fall
Because I am more than this idol
Endless recital
For all my demons to applaud
I am free

Hide myself from it all
While every fear is
Screaming night into dawn
Until I find

The balance has shifted
Warped sick and twisted
Grabbing at angels when I fall
Because I am more than this idol
Endless recital
For all my demons to applaud
I am free

Do I have to believe them? (Lies)
In order to attain fulfillment
I have to succumb to (lies)
All my inner fears that tear at me
I will never believe them (lies)
I’m sick of the weakness that controls me
Now that I’ve fallen, I will not repent

The balance has shifted
Warped sick and twisted
Grabbing at angels when I fall
Because I am more than this idol
Endless recital
For all my demons to applaud
I am free
