Lyrics

Sacrifice the time it takes to live, in place of a thousand lives
We’ll cut each grain of sand with a knife
To understand that tragedy is inherently never-ending
Inherently never-ending
To say that we understand is to say that we are lying
To say that we’d rather leave is to say that we’re not trying
Trying
I know you’ve heard me talk like this before
Sifting through your sacred scars
I know, I know
I know nothing’s kept sacred that isn’t kept to yourself
Blasphemy
It's pulling teeth again and again and again
Now give me your fucking repentance
Repentance, repentance
Dry your eyes with my affection's spotlight
I’ll watch them evaporate one endorsement at a time
Sound echoes through our cavernous hearts
Nothing of value, our memories carved in parietal art
Shattered wind, please wash these walls clean
To say that we understand is to say that we are lying
We are lying
Sacrifice
I know you’ve heard me talk like this before
Sifting through your sacred scars
I know, I know
I know nothing’s kept
I know you’ve heard me talk like this before
I know
I know nothing’s kept
I know you’ve heard me talk like this before
I know
I know nothing’s kept sacred that isn’t kept to yourself
