Won't kneel no more
For you to simply cut off my head
In the name of mercy
Can't bow no more
These voices are not my own
I am the patient son
Twist my truth to stone
I can feel you
But I don't remember you
I don't remember you

Unwind your hands
From around my neck
Don't bend no more
For you
Sever my head for kindness
The dirt spills over
Fabricated decay
Through blinded eyes
All I see is waste

I can feel you
But I don't remember you
I don't remember you
A sanctuary filled with faces of strangers
Broken mirrors once whole
Now they distort me

Unwind your hands
From around my neck
Unwind your hands
From around my neck
I bend no more
I bend no more for you
Unwind your hands around my neck
I kneel no more for you
Unwind your hands

Never again to grind my teeth
In the name of kindness
Never again to bite my tongue
In the name of mercy

My past was a blurred photograph
A crowded room with nowhere left to move

I know now
I know now
Years anchored in my chest
I know now
Mistook comfort for love

Treading water
Learning 'bout myself alone
Through the haze, I saw you
A lighthouse in the dark
We need to land, I thought we vanished, grateful, on my knees
Following your scent, following your scent

I'm alive
I'm alive

Offer you my name as the waters churn
Offer you my name, oceans fade away

When the seasons change
Our bonds remain
I will be yours if you'll be mine
When the seasons change
Our bonds remain
If you'll be mine

When the seasons change
Our bonds remain
I will be yours if you'll be mine
When the seasons change
Our bonds remain
I will be yours
If you'll be mine
