Fractures Lyrics

When the colors divide
There is no space for grey
The collapse of a lie
Leaving only the stain
Of a wound in your pride
And the fractured remains

Now awakened from innocence
We could never be one again
Love cannot breathe without respect
I could never surrender to the lie
Now you're making me choose again
Is it redemption or giving in?
An eye for an eye or to forgive?
I could never surrender to the lie

Resetting the sun
And letting the blood from the silence - what's done is done
Resetting the sun
And letting the blood run from slaughter to save the son

chorus:
How did a promise become a lie?
Broken in fragments internalized
Silence between us - a fracture in the sky

Poisoning the well
Intoxicate with pain until
Your shoulders bear the weight of sacrificing
In the shadow of forgiveness
Waits the scavenger - the martyr
For a graceless crucifixion

Graceless crucifixion pulling at my soul
A self destructive martyr
Spite becomes your home
The carrion of vengeance
Scavenging the bones
Wrestling with angels
To leave the past alone

Leave it alone (Destructive martyr)

How did a promise become a lie?
Broken in fragments internalized
Silence between us - an ocean between us
Fractures in the sky
