Will Mitchell - Reprieve Lyrics

I have overstayed my welcome here
Lost my mind in the mist, lost my faith in you
The stars glisten from so far away
Gazing upon this glowing rock which we have set alight
Choking the senses in us all
Bleeding the pain trapped in our soul
When the heartbeat will cease
Only words can escape your grave
Nothing of our disease
Can survive this path we pave
Drifted past all that is known
Still I fail to justify this flesh and bone
Now our time is wearing thin
Fill our chasm of purpose with reaction to our sin
I cannot rest as easily in my sleep
So long as life is suffering
When the heartbeat will cease
Only words can escape your grave
Nothing of our disease
Can survive this path we pave
(This path we pave)
(Escape your grave)
Floating beyond mountain ranges
Sinking below human nature
We won't find answers thinking of ourselves
Blinded by our own obliviousness
Guided by the self guiding destruction
Now I must martyr myself
When the heartbeat will cease
Only words can escape your grave
Nothing of our disease
Can survive this path we pave
