lyrics

Moonlight filling up my dreams
And I got to know your name
Symphonies and silver leaves
Pushing back the shame
Ironclad broke down renegade
Pulling at my strings
Speaking curses at my back
As I press on un-singed

Get off my back, I can’t carry you
Get off my back, I don’t want to

Visions flash before my eyes
And they keep me up at night
Grand cathedrals, towers, and steeples
Appear among my sighs
Sneaking men with snaking eyes
Fill the air with dust
Striking fear with smiling sneers
And breaking up my trust

Phantom figures filled with gold
Do not resonate
With discordant, upturned days
Not all love, some hate
Friends and foes both criticize me
Chaining me with names
I’ll fill my ears with fiery tears
To still the naming game
