Northern Shores - Resentment Lyrics

They say adversity devours the weak
That pain's the catalyst to strengthening
Strengthening
It's what has fortified me
Yet it's also the wraith
Watching and lingering

Trials of regret and the same mistakes I've made
With different people, I've put myself
I've put myself in the arms of far too many
From family to the friends I called the same

The scar tissue that's littering my body
Has come to consume my being
The scar tissue that's littering my body
The scar tissue seems to have become
Me
Become me

Anymore, I struggle to feel
Anything at all
Numb as the winter's wind
Numb as the winter's wind

Reflective of
The apathy
I had once so foolishly envied
Foolishly envied

I can't rid myself
Rid myself
Of the venom in my veins
Or the bitterness
Bitterness
In my arteries

I'd bleed myself dry
If it would relieve
The burden of my heart
Continuing to beat
The times I've been betrayed
In all the years behind me
They just can't seem to escape
My memory

And I fear that this
Resentment will always last
I'd rather bury myself
Cause I can't seem to bury my
Past

I can't seem to bury my past
