A Broken Upper Hand lyrics

Trapped behind my state of mind

I took your words and now I'm blind

And everything you've given just kills me

Your words swarm through my soul like locusts

Eating away at any glimpse of focus

Their eyes flaming red like pain

Filling the void once righteous and bloodstained

But words can't kill the light inside me

That tears me from the hate that binds me

I feel it crawling up my spine

But I'll cut it off before it reaches the bloodline

You'll never fade me out

You'll never turn me off

You'll never reach the end

You'll never hear enough

You're half-grasp can't exterminate my stand

You can't rule with a broken upper hand

A fragment of what's been left behind

Trapped behind my state of mind

I took your words and now I'm blind

And everything you've given just kills me

Trapped behind my state of mind

I took your words and now I'm blind

And everything you've given just kills me

Your face brings out the hate that rots me

The face of everyday that haunts me

I can't pull away my blank stare

A thousand times should prove I don't care

But hands can't steal the light that makes me

Or bring me to the fate that breaks me

I feel it crawling up my spine

But I'll cut it off before it reaches the bloodline

You'll never fade me out

You'll never turn me off

You'll never reach the end

You'll never hear enough

You're the half-grasp can't exterminate my stand

You can't rule with a broken upper hand

A fragment of what's been left behind

Trapped behind my state of mind

I took your words and now I'm blind

And everything you've given just kills me

Trapped behind my state of mind

A fragment of what's been left behind

I took your words and now I'm blind

And everything you've given just kills me

Trapped behind my state of mind

A fragment of what's been left behind

I took your words and now I'm blind

And everything you've given just kills me

Kills me (x8)
