I spent a day by the river It was quiet and the wind stood still I spent some time with nature To remind me of all that's real It's funny how silence speaks sometimes when you're alone And remember that you feel I said it's funny how silence speaks sometimes when you're alone And remember that you feel Again I stand Lord, I stand against the faceless man Again I stand Lord, I stand against the faceless man Now I saw a face on the water It looked humble but willing to fight I saw the will of a warrior His yoke is easy and his burden is light He looked me right in the eyes, direct and concise, to remind me To always do what's right He looked me right in the eyes, direct and concise, to remind me To always do what's right Again I stand Lord, I stand against the faceless man Again I stand Lord, God, I stand against the faceless man 'Cause if the face inside can't see the light, I know I'll have to walk alone And if I walk alone to the other side, I know I might not make it home Again I stand Lord, I stand against the faceless man Again I stand Lord, I stand against the faceless man Next time I see this face I'll say I choose to live for always So, won't you come inside And never go away? Next time I see this face I'll say I choose to live for always So, won't you come inside And never go away? Again I stand Lord, I stand against the faceless man Again I stand Lord, I stand against the faceless man Again I stand Lord, I stand against the faceless man

I should've seen all the signs all around me But I was comfortable inside these walls So go ahead and take another piece of me now While we all bow down to you You tear me down and then you pick me up You take it all and still it's not enough You try to tell me you can heal me But I'm still bleeding and you'll be the death of me How can you help my affliction If you're the sickness and not the cure? Too long I've faked this addiction Another sacrifice to make us pure You tear me down and then you pick me up You take it all and still it's not enough You try to tell me you can heal me But I'm still bleeding and you'll be the death of me You tear me down and then you pick me up You take it all and still it's not enough You try to tell me you can heal me But I'm still bleeding and you'll be the death of me I won't forget, I cannot forget this I won't forget, I'll never forget this I won't forget, I cannot forget this I won't forget, I'll never forget this I won't forget, I cannot forget this I won't forget, I'll never forget this I won't forget, I cannot forget this I won't forget, I'll never forget I know I can never prove this illusion You aren't the one that I thought you were And so I learned to embrace this delusion The line that separates us starts to blur You tear me down and then you pick me up You take it all and still it's not enough You try to tell me you can heal me But I'm still bleeding and you'll be the death of me And you'll be the death of me I won't forget, I cannot forget this And you'll be the death of me

Enemy, familiar friend My beginning and my end Knowing truth, whispering lies And it hurts again What I fear and what I try The words I say and what I hide All the pain, I want it to end But I want it again And it finds me The fight inside is coursing through my veins And it's raging The fight inside is breaking me again Still the same, pursuing pain Is it worth all I have gained? We both know how this will end But I do it again And it finds me The fight inside is coursing through my veins And it's raging The fight inside is hurting me again And it finds me The war within me pulls me under And without you The fight inside is breaking me again It's nothing (It's everything) It's nothing (It's everything) It's nothing (It's everything) It's nothing, it's everything And it finds me The fight inside is coursing through my veins And it's raging The fight inside is hurting me again And it finds me The war within me pulls me under And without you The fight inside is breaking me again It's breaking me It's breaking me I'm falling apart, I'm falling apart

My eyes have adjusted to dark And so has my heart The weight of the world has covered me I'm in over my head Am I living or dead? Can anyone hear me calling out? I'm calling out I'm finally breaking So where are you now? It's been such a long time That I've tried to live without I'm suffocating I need you to breathe So reach down and pull me up Pull me out before I am buried beneath I built this house on the shore All I wanted was more Then I felt the sand start shifting I saw the cracks in the walls I painted over them all I tried my best to just ignore I can't ignore I'm finally breaking So where are you now? It's been such a long time That I've tried to live without I'm suffocating I need you to breathe So reach down and pull me up Pull me out before I am buried beneath I thought I was climbing out But it's dragging me down What's hidden here with me? Thought I was alone But it pulls me deeper now I can't escape I'm finally breaking So where are you now? It's been such a long time That I've tried to live without I'm suffocating I need you to breathe So reach down and pull me up Pull me out before I am buried beneath
