Hell Or High Water

Came back to the land of the living I remember there's something I should not have forgotten I should not have forgotten What's my name again I hope to find what's lost in last night's haze Buried by the storm Covered in dust I remain Untouched by the hands of the sane This is not who you are It's only your thoughts that got infected It's the emptiness you're carrying in your heart That has hollowed you out When the dam breaks Will you run from the flood Or would you stand beside me Hell or high water Hell or high water I've yet to recover what was gone So I went back to where I thought I lost it I found only a shell When I take a better look I see The skin I dug up was once my own I don't feel it belongs Covered in dust it remains Untouched by the hands of the sane This is not who you are It's only your thoughts that got infected It's the emptiness you're carrying in your heart That has hollowed you out When the dam breaks Will you run from the flood Or would you stand beside me Hell or high water Hell or high water Don't let the absence of action distract you from asking yourself these questions They can prevent you from getting caught in the undertow You can find your way back to dry land By making mistakes that might lead to nowhere But then one time you'll find yourself lost in a place where you know that You find peace in the bits that are vague Pleased by all things unexplainable That's just a part of being human if you ask me Don't ask me though Ask yourself and let your thoughts Run like a stampede Let 'em go Then you take over control 'Cause this is not you, this is them Planting a seed inside your brain You take back the soil once yours You plant your seeds and watch 'em grow Give 'em water you once thought Was poisoned by the aftermath Of darker nights, sharper thoughts Not anymore, it's over now 'cause This is not who you are It's only your thoughts that got infected It's the emptiness you're carrying in your heart That has hollowed you out When the dam breaks I won't run from the flood I will stand beside you Hell or high water Hell or high water
