Light This City Laid To Rest Lyrics

You attempt to find
what you're looking for
in vacant corpses
never understanding
that you have to bury the things you love
when they are dead
you've cut too deep

let the dead lie asleep
refuse to grasp the hand that breaks the ground from this shallow grave that you have built
don't pull him through
he's not who he was
your bleeding cuts are only keeping your betrayers alive
why do you tear at your broken flesh and feed this hungry hell?
how can they redeem themselves for all the blood they've spilt
and when will you let the scars they've left heal?
