Erode by The Northern Lyrics

Screaming
The droning noise
The light that once shined has faded and died

Low
Soothing and calm
His hollow look is haunting
And I’m too weak to run
But part of me can’t help but feel
That I belong
My will to stay has changed;
The prison in my mind withdrawn

Keep this close to your heart again
Keep taking your medicine
Keep thinking that you are the one to be saved
I hope these words find you in time
And when you fall back to him again
You'll see that this cycle has made you a slave

Your faith is gone
You hope and pray for better days
But praying’s never good enough
Bow down, bow down
Your days are numbered now
Your book won’t lead to better days
Filled with outdated ideals

Gasping for breath
I don’t know what is real
Between the lines
The stories now unclear

Hold my breath and try to pray today
Its too late
I guess I can’t be saved

Its time to wake up

Keep this close to your heart again
Keep taking your medicine
Keep thinking that you are the one to be saved
I hope these words find you in time
And when you fall back to him again
You'll see that this cycle has made you a slave

Its time to wake up
Bring this to an end
Its time to wake up
Live your life again
