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 run, 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 for every devastating voice that you hear
You feel the throes of contradiction in the word 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 affliction
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
