Stand Alone Complex (feat. Micah Kinard of Oh, Sleeper)
Was I damned from the start Or just when their marriage fell apart? Come back in time Take Hell’s flames out of my eyes I’m setting fire to everyone and everything It burns beneath my skin Sending smoke signals to Heaven For Him to save me It would stain Heaven’s gates The pearls will never be replaced They serve as a reminder His children still suffer Come on Does my “try” make God blush? Does my heart still decay? Does it still rust? Cause I feel that all my gears are starting to dry It’s beginning to be too much for me Oh,life, how could you be so cruel to me? Cut me some slack And I’ll pick up everything I lack If you’d grant me this strength then I’ll return it to you by a thousand fold Dear brother, though our mothers are not one We share a father He never wished the weight you spit to be collared on your own You cast your fault, project the loss But reflections must mirror the victor your heart longs to honor The fact remains that His flawlessness waits to except only utter surrender And he’s extending his arms Mom come home when you can I swear Dad has changed he’s still a good man If I’m wrong I’ll hold my head high I’ll let God Spit in my face I know you would still grab the flame If I burn I know you’d still grab the flame
