Akeldema Lyrics - Haste The Day

When the skin breaks 

He thought time could heal his growing shame 

These white hot knives will turn to fire and theyll burn 

He cannot heal before he breaks 

He stumbled out of the bedroom 

Feel the shock moving up and down your spine 

Hes running out of the building 

Shes going crazy, screaming, asking Why? 

If you look for a savior to finally be free 

Free from all his failure, thats all youll ever see 

He stumbled into the bathroom, shut the door and fell right to his knees 

He tried to look in the the mirror, now his eyes are bleeding 

Hes asking please 

When the skin breaks 

He thought time could heal his growing shame 

These white hot knives will turn to fire and theyll burn 

He cannot heal before he breaks 

Sounds weakening, death sets in 

As his stomach quickly hits the floor 

The stench of a rotting lie has found its way to your brain 

It pulls the trigger and opens your eyes to spot the reeking stain 

He thought it would solve all his problems 

He sees now that the blood will never wash away 

Now cant you hear what hes saying? 

While youve been screaming youve been drowning the ladder 

So you can float to the top instead of climb 

And I assure you that Im not the one for you 

When the skin breaks 

He thought time could heal his growing shame 

These white hot knives will turn to fire and theyll burn 

He cannot heal before he breaks
