Black Earth - Dayseeker

The needles that pierce my veins are drowning my world in flames

I pray for this to stop but they burn, they burn

No holy book, no plea’s to the sky

Will subside the fiending inside my mind

I don’t think that I’m ready to die yet

But I’m so close I can barely stand

My reflection shows a demon in me

But I just want this to stop now

Can you hear me?

I just want this to stop now

I’m helpless when my heart is heavy

When there is nothing else

To tell me I am worth the effort to save myself

Amidst the chaos in this sea of flames

My eyes turn from this black earth

Everyone I know is looking down

Their eyes filled with shame

And everything I need is right in front of me

But I just need to see

The water that I sink in could be the same I walk on

The water that I sink in could be the same I walk on

The truth is I’m still learning wrong from right

I’m helpless when my heart is heavy

When there is nothing else

To tell me I am worth the effort to save myself

Amidst the chaos in this sea of flames

My eyes turn from this black earth

The needles that pierce my veins are drowning my world in flames

I pray for this to stop but they burn, they burn

They burn, they burn

They burn my world, I can taste defeat

But I will make sure the earth sees one day that I’ll be free from this sea of

flames

Black earth, I turn my eyes to see a new world where I can find peace
