It’s not my fault
Heaven knows,
I tried to hide the flaws
You spoke to life
In my mind
And fit the mold
Outer appearances
Values and masks
That you sold
But never wore
You never wore
just a child
So Full of hope
Running wild
The future’s gold
Still have the words
That you spoke like a cancer
Burned in my memories
Like cigarette embers
Twisted thoughts and careless actions
Apathetic satisfaction
I’m still the one that you treat like a stranger
Weigh down my spirit with all of this anger
It’s not my fault
I keep telling myself
It’s not my fault
It’s not my fault
Left out in the cold
Locked into feeling erased
But you don’t even know
Who I am
You don’t want to understand
You only see what you want to
As I’m growing older
You’re claiming the high road
Your truth set in stone
And I’m buried under your pavement
A garden choked out by cement
It’s not my fault
I keep telling myself
It’s not my fault
It’s not my fault
Where did my innocence go?
Where did my innocence go?
Where did it go?
Knocked down
And helpless
Was too young to process
The way that you messed with my head
My self image ripped into shreds
It’s all in my head
Is it all in my head?
Trauma like calluses
Memories like blisters
I’m numb to the touch
But your voice is a splinter
That keeps digging under my skin
It keeps digging under my skin
It’s not my fault
Realistically, I should have bought this album after the first 100 scrobbles of In Reach (Out of Touch), but it's never too late to do the right thing. This has a different atmosphere (and story) than The Lost City, but it's just as good and just as melodic. porcelainheart-
This album quite literally defined 2017, the best summer of my life. So many good memories associated with this album that flood me with nostalgia with every listen. Unique fantasy-driven metalcore with an impressive array of vocal styles and awe-inspiring lyrics. FFO Before Giants. porcelainheart-
honestly, my favorite part of this album is it's depressing/emotional beginnings. the album almost goes on to tell a story of redemption and power from grief and despair. throughout the album is a wonderful atmosphere that can become the soundtrack to anything. brilliant work fellas, and hoping for some more in the future. a_lnecks
