lyrics

These shadows have left her
To crumble with the city
She's trying to leave
Singing softly to the sidewalks
She's built to deceive

Saying to belong is a lie
Not believing a word that she says
In the distance there is the sound
Of the lost crying out to be led

But this hand on her shoulder
Erases the sky
All that's left is the ground
Where all giants lie

She waits for towers to fall
Just to crawl in the ashes of
This sanctuary of walls
Where her peace is an aftermath

She's found imitating survivors
Who grasp at the floor
Where onlookers gasp at the horror
Where peace is an aftermath

Light hides from the places she's wept
And leaves holes for the lonely
Who found her to try and accept
That what everyone has is not enough

Quiet is too quiet
Among the morals we've kept

And her words
Are in all of your mouths
As the murmur
That tears through the crowds

Scrape them out
Before you make her saviours proud
