I battled with the bottle but I had to do it sozzled
Puzzled by poison, I shovel the dirt that I live in
With a digging dignity written in the stars
Look up to the legends
Shining inspiration on the doubts and hesitations
That are stopping you from facing
All the fears that you’re escaping
Making nothing but problems for the things that you’re craving
Your heart is not vacant
You wear it like a bracelet
A chain that isn’t braking
On a wrist that the blade has tasted
But never liked the taste of
Spit the venom on the paper
Punch the future so you’ll wake it
From the death defining moment
In the belly of the hopeless
Focus.

Focus, focus high in the belly of the hopeless
Focus, focus
Look up then down in the belly of the hopeless

This is the depth of death
This is the start of what’s next
Step towards oneness
Into the arms of openness
Shed the old skin and let go
The man I was hangs like a shadow
The water will drown the shallow and bring hope to the hollow
Hallowed dreams of tomorrow
Identify and eclipse the sorrow
Everything you owned was borrowed
Everyone has paths to follow
Everything you own is borrowed

The silence speaks so loud
It will wake up this whole house
Silence speaks so loud

From a tomb once lost in a battle
To a tune that makes your ribcage rattle
We create a tone that's never quite settled
But set the bar to raise the level
From a tomb once lost in a battle
To a tune that makes your ribcage rattle
We create a tone that's never quite settled
But set the bar to raise the level
