lyrics

Born to carry that weight, but that's if you can
when you have no face and two broken hands.

Gone, the journey, so long
and that which you seek has always been around the bend.

Ch: The Sweet dream leaves me early, I'm caught in the parade.
Your heart stops in this moment, when you see the you you've betrayed.

Turn yourself inside out, try to contain the things you were told,
but perspectives change.

Wrapped deep in the heart.
Like your DNA, hard to remove. Dragging these chains.


(BRIDGE)
All of these things, I know I shouldn't do….
I'm drawn by the mystery of forbidden fruit.
Gathered together, they equal demise.
Sweet to the taste, what will rot your insides.
Ideal intentions and a heart for the truth,
these were my friends in the days of my youth.
In the footsteps of Adam,
it's here that I stand, falling forever, temptation in hand.
