The cracks are showing themselves They're leading the way The way things are Going the way things change Take them away The stamina in misery Take them away You've seen the scars in me The scars involved with history Take them away Too many times, I've seen destruction in men Emotions stretched thin Love would see a smile again, if any over-stepped mark was a lesson learnt I hope you learn You need to learn That steps that you took, have left him stood in the footprints of fear You lead the way You brought him here The threat that drives us all is used as means to capture The net gets tighter until the soul inside is shattered Fragmented thought process Tear the mind apart Find the misery in hand Find a way The stamina in misery Take them away You've seen the scars in me The scars involved with history Take them away Agony Burdening The reaction I'd hate to inspire is lurking round every corner The threat that drives us all is used as means to capture The net gets tighter until the soul inside is shattered With no sign of release Heaven forbid you'd ever admit that you're wrong Volatile, Infantile state of mind Every word, a nail pushed further into my palm Every word, a finger of blame stretched from your arm A guilty verdict, indeed A verdict guilty of hypocrisy Nails through my palm
