[Tim Lambesis] There´s a sentence they gave me Then one that remains unchanging Like skin that´s burnt by frost, it´ll peel if I pull away
It hurts to hold or let go as I´m trying to sustain Like feeling hunger pangs and eating bone to stay alive It tears me apart insideâ but it seems like the better way to get by Like a broken hourglass they fell Cutting sand through my fingers down the deepest well
[Josh Gilbert & Tim Lambesis] I know the toll it takesâ but I won´t let you go The past I can´t replace is all that you´ll ever know There is no turning backâ I can´t fix what I broke The past I can´t replace is all that you´ll ever know
[Tim Lambesis] You´re a part of me that I may never be able to repair Like a lung that´s collapsed, I´ll always know that you´re still there Always surrounding my heart even if it rejects air
[Josh Gilbert & Tim Lambesis] I know the toll it takes, but I won´t let you go The past I can´t replace is all that you´ll ever know There is no turning backâ I can´t fix what I broke The past I can´t replace is all that you´ll ever know
[ Tim Lambesis] The true sentence I still face is one I brought upon myself Lost in a dark cell They said it´s easiest just to numb yourself and let go But these open wounds will forever feel fresh And I refuse to let them close yet
[Josh Gilbert & Tim Lambesis] I know the toll it takes, but I won´t let you go The past I can´t replace is all that you´ll ever know There is no turning back, I can´t fix what I broke The past I can´t replace is all that you´ll ever know
[ Tim Lambesis] I know the toll it takesâ but I won´t let you go
