Behind the eyes of my compassion lies a suffering soul

And in my blood a bitter darkness slowly taking it's toll

I feel the death of our connection and the fading of light

Between the shards of sudden panic from choking on my life



I see the scars of your addiction and the feeling you hide

A blackened heart from all the hatred you will never rewind

Within the depths of your depression hear you pleading for help

Your just a shell of vacant ruin, a portrait of myself.



I can't breathe alone

You can guide me home.



CHORUS:

I am the face of your affliction.

Feeding new life through the cracks in your skull.



Beneath the skin of your aggression is a thickening fear

A swelling plague from every devastating voice that you hear

You feel the throes of contradiction in the world that you left

Another day in your delusion, the never-ending death.



I can't breathe alone

You can guide me home

I can feel you here

You can draw me near



CHORUS:

I am the face of your afflication.

Feeding new life through the cracks in your skull.

I am the pain of your conviction

Stabbing you right through the back of your soul.



This is life, this is love



(CHORUS)



I can feel you here

You can draw me near.
