I see my reflection Slow rising from a distance Once scorned from the cove Destined to walk this barren grove These walls high above Below, by the bare skin of my teeth I hold on For life beyond The fall that has crushed my soul Flaying what is left inside Reaching towards the light I'm climbing high Torn from the crawl (From beyond the undertow) A shining beacon of What once was meant to be My body keeps on climbing My mind commanding me to stop Can't be wasting away, fading away Burning to know the truth These walls high above Below, by the bare skin of my teeth I hold on For life beyond The fall that has crushed my soul Flaying what is left inside Reaching towards the light I'm climbing high Now that I see you standing there Commanding the awe without a care Weighing the words with arrows thrown The fruits of your heresy are grown The distance you crave to stay unbound The heights that you build to keep us down A prison to capture flesh and bone I'll come for your throne You, I'll come for you These walls high above Below, by the bare skin of my teeth I hold on For life beyond The fall that has crushed my soul Flaying what is left inside Reaching towards the light I'm climbing high
