I've
learned to hold the line
and to never look away.
I've taught myself the lies that will get me through the day.
Nothing ever lasts
but the pain that circulates
through the chasms of our past and the breaths we dare to take.
Mmmmm.
La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la.
Oh, mama, can't you see?
I've got a darkness shining through me.
I've learned to hold the weight
of this mirror to the sky.
I've taught myself the sense
of never asking why.
Nothing ever lasts
but the darkness that dilates through the curtains of our past
and the steps we dare to take.
Mmmmm.
Oh,
mama,
can't you see?
I've got a darkness shining through me.
I've got a darkness shining through me.
Oh,
mama,
can't you see?
I've got a darkness
shining through me.
