Denial Lyrics - Singles - The Damage Manual

Something more graceful felt like leading you to war 

It sounds so distasteful, more than what you're fighting for 

More flights of stairs derailed, your ascent it falls so slow 

Your body and love impaled on the spikes you left below 

Grief turned to currency just like midas touched it black 

Like rage in its infancy, you're afraid it might turn back 

A flag slashed by injured nights in a fist outside your past 

Waves only eclipsed by fright in its glory at half-mast 

You can't beat denial, it's the murder of your past 

A line drawn hard and broken down 

To lie outside your grasp 

I fooled you by way of greed 

But it opened up your eyes 

Too deep down in your hallowed nerves 

But it came as no surprise 

Your silent servant dragged abyss across the ground 

To wallow sleeplessly on everything you found 

Afraid lasts a lifetime and it crosses paths with mine 

Lost fades its energy, in the end we both but shrine 

So ends disgraceful, ride me back to where I rain 

Controlled and quarantined, impure, distressed and stained 

Your war so makeshift, as if a path through broken seas 

Your faith so restless as you turn to talk to me
