lyrics

This fear -- The fear of never being enough;
Of failing the ones we love
Shadowed by inherited guilt; by the shame you instilled
you have to kill it before this disease can spread
Breathe in and begin again
And Never let it win

Don’t drown,
steady yourself and stop your knees from shaking
wipe away the tears
I'm still here so it's not too late yet
My whole life has been spent inside this cage
sinking deeper; a fever dream that I’m not a slave
to your guilt

And I still feel the void

That you were meant to fill
All these years
A Cold hollow emptiness
In my bones
I can hear your voice
A deafening white noise
It fills every inch of space
punishing my mind

Even when you're not around
I cant let it go

Still Suffocating in the lie that the past was ever right
Forbidding any growth; I've felt worthless my whole life
And You're to blame.
What kind of fucking father does this?
I Grew up hiding who I am and The fear nearly broke me

So I Nourished only failures until they became who I am
I locked myself away
I trusted you

A headless leader who gained our trust
I learned nothing from you; I learned nothing of use;
Learned Nothing but abuse
A festering blister on my mind
Killing me slowly over time

I am destined to fail
I see you in my reflection every fucking day;
A reminder of who I'm meant to be
Blackened ash blankets every branch
Covering everything until it stifles
anything growing inside of me
