Without Walls
[Intro]

[Verse]
Finding order torn asunder
Sworn surrender stole the day
Like a wave of wasted wonder
Rising up and swept away
These moments I retain
Locked in against the pain

As the darkness folds around me
Colder forces hold me down
And the doubt is growing stronger
I no longer can be found

Don't tell me anymore
It's what this life is for
In sight of lost amends
Your light will shine never again

[Bridge]
I occupy these rooms I build
And word by word, the silence is filled

[Verse]
Light descends in empty shades
Undermines the time we lost
Here today I'm not afraid
To calculate the hollow cost
Never crossed that good expression
Said I wouldn't and I didn't
Cutthroat counsel that won't free me
Language I could only dream of until now

[Pre-Chorus]
I'm ready to begin
The science is wearing thin

[Chorus]
Without walls, constant breakdown
Without time, any day now
Without words, fake it somehow
Without you

[Verse]
Half of me is undeceased
Half is underneath the ground
Any way you gain release
Don't go where you can't be found

Are we late? It's complicated
State the words best left unspoken
Making nothing out of something
They will break what can't be broken now
[Pre-Chorus]
I'm made of other skin
Defiance is wading in

[Chorus]
Without walls
Without time
Without words
Without you

[Post-Chorus]
Now I'm ready to begin
The science is wearing me down
Down, down, down, down, down, down, down

[Instrumental Break]

[Interlude]
And I can't go outside
And there is no reason why
Unforsaken heart
Take another shot
Now

Break it to me
Protect me from the truth
Keep that highborn hope
Safe and future-proof
Now
[Instrumental Break]

[Verse]
Walls without our self control
Sleep that brings no guarantees
Night awake, come take your toll
Right there's the life and death of me

High like a permanent sun
Fly hard through a sky made of thunder

[Bridge]
Carelessly counted on
What possessed you?
Swear to me, then you're gone
What is with you still?

Send out the sound of bells
Let it splinter
When sense of purpose fails
It all disintegrates

[Instrumental Break]

[Bridge]
Crowds unascended now
Rain with the burning showers
Signs come to send me down

[Instrumental Break]

[Verse]
Saw the deeper understanding
Torn asunder, wrenched apart
When the wave of wasted wonder
Rose above our empty guard

[Pre-Chorus]
These moments made me then
And by them now
I am defined again
You always knew

[Verse]
In the sunken water shallows
Imperfections yet remain
Set beneath that mask of sorrow
Lies a face without a name

[Pre-Chorus]
Don't tell me anymore
It's what this life is for
Until I stand alone
Your light will shine

[Chorus]
Never again in this lifetime
In this lifetime
Shine on me again
Shine on me again

[Outro]
