Sanctuary

A slap in the face, it is endowed
The light of my life is put out somehow
I’m lying in pieces of emotions you control
You’re feeding my sympathy the lie unfolds
Feeling this hostility, I pray
Begging, make this evil go away
Coveting the things I only fear
Building my sanctuary of blood and tears
The lines that I traced
Around the scars they swell
Inflamed with a sedative
To numb this spell
I’m lying in pieces of emotions you control
You’re feeding this cancer
It’s taken hold
Feeling this hostility, I pray
Begging, make this evil go away
Coveting the things I only fear
Building my sanctuary of blood and tears
Feeling animosity
When no one else is around
Blindly, I scream into the air
Eating my heart off the ground
Feeling this hostility, I pray
Begging, make this evil go away
Coveting the things I only fear
Building my sanctuary of blood and tears
Grooooouuund!
