If Only to Fall

by No Sin Evades His Gaze

on If Only to Fall (2017), Endless Disconnect (2017)

So why do we fight if only to fall?
With nothing to lose and nothing to gain
Suffocate under the weight
(?) that's washed away

We're slaves to idols, fake disciples
One vision of survival
(?) our demise
We're out of time to leave this (?)

We mindlessly swallow and follow every word
Like cattle to the slaughter, patiently waiting our turn

And you cut so deep, it must be hard to keep
The words from falling out your mouth you never meant to speak
Scars on the surface I never thought would hurt
And when your back is turned I nurse these wounds

You think you're in so deep and you're irreplaceable
Hands tied by puppet strings, I'll cut them if I have to

Fall again
Time after time or in the same breath
A disappointment
(?)
We're falling over again
The sourest of tastes

And you cut so deep, it must be hard to keep
The words from falling out your mouth you never meant to speak
Scars on the surface I never thought would hurt
And when your back is turned I nurse these wounds

So why do we fight if only to fall?
With nothing to lose and nothing to gain
Suffocate under the weight
(?) that's washed away

And you cut so deep, it must be hard to keep
The words from falling out your mouth you never meant to speak
Scars on the surface I never thought would hurt
And when your back is turned I nurse these wounds

So why do we fight if only to fall?
With nothing to lose and nothing to gain
Suffocate under the weight
(?) that's washed away

And you cut so deep, it must be hard to keep
The words from falling out your mouth you never meant to speak
Scars on the surface I never thought would hurt
And when your back is turned I nurse these wounds

I nurse these wounds
I nurse these wounds
And when your back is turned I nurse these wounds

I nurse these wounds
I nurse these wounds
These wounds, these wounds
I nurse these wounds
