Shattered by Reasons Above All Lyrics

Beware the saints who choose the throne
Who complicate lives they own
Kill to protect
Things worth money
Live to forget
It’s all worth nothing

I’ll sacrifice the family ties to pay the price
Burden of my own device
Look to me with eyes of ice
I’m marching on

You can question my faith again
It’s still unwavering
This home ain’t home
I’ve always known
I’m gonna have to let it go

It’s time for reckoning
Shattered faces agree
Your lies won’t come
To be my truth
I’m rising over you
We’re perpetually lost in the numbers
Another sign we’re all behind
The cycle’s repeated hundreds of thousands of times

I know I’m not one to speak of stains
The blood on my two hands remains
And when I walk away
They’ll punish me for all my days

I’ve lived with all your regrets
I’m finally ready to step
Off the ledge of sanity
Go ahead and try to stop me now

It’s time for reckoning
Shattered faces agree
Your lies won’t come
To be my truth
I’m rising over you

I know this doesn't make up
For all the sins committed
But at least I get to wake up
To all my ghosts acquitted
Fear’s lost its hold on my throat
I’m learning to let it go
Now I can face myself
Now I can face myself
Your burdens won't weigh me now
Your burdens won’t weigh me down

Shattered faces
Shattered faces

It’s time for reckoning
Shattered faces agree
Your lies won’t come
To be my truth
I’m rising over you

I will rise over you
Over you
