Illuminate Me - Strayer Lyrics

I could have sworn it was a fear of falling
But now I realize its falling away
Throwing stones off the beaten path
Memories fold from my head into my hands

Making deals with devils; grinding stone with metal
Aching of the heart
These eyes flood with contempt
The fear tightens in my chest
The fear tightens in my chest

There is no telling what comes next

A fire forgotten, a muse misplaced
Reignite these coals to burning flames
Outstretched arms, covered in scars
Knees buckled at the weight of the world

I won't be crushed, I have too much to lose
It's time to reconstruct and start anew
