All We Know

I've seen the end there's no below
Pain is all we know

Maybe we're buried alive
The roots become our bones
We seek the meaning of life
Hoping it makes us whole
But when we're buried alive
Dirt will become our home

As we are now
As we will be

Pain is all we ever know
We're all born to die alone
Tempt me under I don't want to suffer
Pain is all we ever know

The more we seek to ascend
The less we seem to know
The more we lie to pretend
Words are perpetual
It all repeats in the end
Until we lose control

Pain is all we ever know
We're all born to die alone
Tempt me under I don't want to suffer
Pain is all we ever know

All of the sadness
All of the maddening things that always keep us visceral

I've seen the end there's no below
It's not the truth that we were
Destined to reap what we have sewn
Our souls rewind and echo!
Rewind and echo!

As we are now
As we will be

Pain is all we ever know
We're all born to die alone
Tempt me under I don't want to suffer
Pain is all we ever know

There's no sanctum paved in gold
Only silence carved in stone
Tempt me under I don't want to suffer
Pain is all we ever know
