[Verse 1]
Behind the eyes of my compassion lies a suffering soul
And in my blood a bitter darkness slowly taking its toll
I feel the death of our connection and the fading of light
Between the shards of sudden panic from choking on my life

I see the scars of your addiction and the feeling you hide
A blackened heart from all the hatred you will never rewind
Within the depths of your depression hear you pleading for help
You're just a shell of vacant ruin, a portrait of myself

[Pre-Chorus]
I can't breathe, alone
You can guide, me home

[Chorus]
I am the face of your affliction
Feeding new life through the cracks in your skull

[Verse 2]
Beneath the skin of your aggression is a thickening fear
A swelling plague for every devastating voice that you hear
You feel the throes of contradiction in the world that you left
Another day in your delusion, the never-ending death

[Pre-Chorus]
I can't breathe, alone
You can guide, me home
I can feel, you here
You can draw, me near
[Chorus]
I am the face of your affliction
Feeding new life through the cracks in your skull
I am the pain of your conviction
Stabbing you right through the back of your soul

[Bridge]
This is life
This is love

[Chorus]
I am the face of your affliction
Stabbing you right through the back of your soul
I am the face of your affliction
Feeding new life through the cracks in your skull
I am the pain of your conviction
Stabbing you right through the back of your soul

[Outro]
I can feel you here
You can draw me near
