He bends and he breaks
If you give, they will take away
His passion, his pain and his grace
He exhales, a thousand black flowers explode
Into b___erflies as they're away

Rip them out, take them
Burn to coals as they crush
And leave nothing
That resembles a soul of a man
See him numb, see him crushed
See him numb, see him crushed
Rip them out, take them
Burn to coals as they crush him
And leave nothing
That resembles a soul of a man
Leave him numb, leave him crushed
Leave him numb, leave him crushed

Took the fire inside
One too many times
He's burning and over and out, now he fails
Up against the raging tides
No more fights
Everything you ever wanted to see
I see it in his eyes
One more time, one more time

Climb down to test the waters
My hands feel like they're rusting away
So I'll pace around like a
Lamb before the slaughter
I'll stay here as long as you'll let me
Decisions been made obvious
So I will return where I started
I'll stay there unfinished, I'll wither away

Rip them out, take them
Burn to coals as they crush
And leave nothing
That resembles a soul of a man
See him numb, see him crushed
See him numb, see him crushed
Rip them out, take them
Burn to coals as they crush him
And leave nothing
That resembles a soul of a man
leave him crushed
Leave him numb, leave him crushed
