Not I Lyrics

Not I lyrics

So now you're suffering the fallacy of what you said

When you uncover the depression from where you've tread

Breathe over the glass you wrote on

Swallow all that you waste your throat on

You wear the mark and wave the banner they made with sin

Revealing every single lie that you've been breeding within

Wash over the skin you've broken

Think over the tone you spoke in



So lost in your affliction/addiction

The solemn comfort of your grave

If you close your eyes the light can't take it away



Not I - I won't conform to what I see in you

Not I - I won't surrender what I am

Not I - And even if it was a part of me

Not I - I'll never be that way again



The blind will follow on the path you created in vain

No guiding light but just the shadow of the dead will remain

Dig open the pain you're hiding

Give your hand to the faith you're fighting

The void you suffer it a curse forever bleeding inside

Now you embrace the fatal sickness you should despise

Remember the day you lost that

Where is the shame that will bring your soul back



Reach back behind your pride

And pull the thorn from the burning pain in your side



Sing me a new song

A broken song of redemption and regret

Sing me a new song

And beg for all the mercy you can get
