I'm trying to find the way to walk
Some really know but most just talk
It's got something to do with letting go

I'm sitting inside a broken tree
I'm drinking the will of you and me
And I'll swallow anything
That you eat

You beg for mercy
When I hold you down
You beg for mercy
When I hold you down
It's not your culture
That holds us back this time

I want to tear off your disguise
Leave you open to the thing at night that cries
Close to midnight when the veil is gone

I want to get in this car and drive
Throw ourselves from the machine
While we're still alive
With your watercolors
Paint all the streetsigns

You beg for mercy
When I hold you down
You beg for mercy
When I hold you down
It's not your culture
That holds us back this time

I beg for mercy when I hold you
I beg for mercy when I hold you
I beg for mercy when I hold you
I beg for mercy when I hold you
I beg for mercy
I beg for mercy
I beg for mercy
I beg for mercy

Darkness is not
Darkness is not so absolute
Feel like I might
Feel like I might be breaking through
Wondering when
Wondering when the dam will break

All of my senses
All of my senses overflow
Ready to link
Ready to link myself to you
Lift up the veil
Lift up the veil I'm coming through

Darkness is not
Darkness is not so absolute
Feel like I might
Feel like I might be breaking through
Wondering when
Wondering when the dam will break

All of my senses
All of my senses overflow
Ready to link
Ready to link myself to you
Lift up the veil
Lift up the veil I'm coming through
