lyrics

I wrote your name on the wall
To remember why I'm here
Recited lines of faith
I'm sure you will be restored
And everyone in the room
With painted brave faces
Gathered to comfort the dead
Is there hope for the living
Constantly Mourning
Everything we lost
Carried by sorrow

So sick of the mirror I don't recognize who looks back

I'll ask the same questions
Time and time again
What happens before we begin
What happens after we end
This is my heart
This is my soul

Same time next year
I swear I'll be better by then
Same time next year
Will I understand

Cut out my tongue
Keep your name from my mouth
Trying to live again

If there's no beginning
Then life has no meaning
And when our lives end
Our eyes won't open again

Cut out my tongue
Keep your name from my mouth
Trying to live again

This is my heart
This is my soul
We will take arms
Because our blood and bodies are weak as hell
Never again

So sick of the mirror I don't recognize who looks back

Try to find meaning
Trying to find purpose
Desiring the end
For solace in knowing
A ghost of who I once was
A glimpse of what I can be
Dancing through the motions
Moving from memory

A wife and a kid
A dog and a fence
The american dream
Just isn't worth living
