What Did You Know And When Did You Know It? by Too Late The Hero Lyrics

What was said under duress
What was shouted out of context cut me deeper
From the divides - surging and reeling - for all the progress we've made
We’re spitting hate from candles in caves
Inhaling chemicals we create

Buried in lye - rusted and peeling - the palace is your tomb oxidized
Your former glory flaking away
Muscle and bone buckle under the weight

[Chorus]
Cutting my feet on broken glass
A clean reminder of a bloody past
You see crimson
But your feet dig deeper
Cutting my feet on broken glass
A weak denial of thoughtlessness
Blood on the tracks
A man can't progress if he won't look back

We disunite - quietly screaming - for all the anguish we claim
We point the blame to sewers and strays
We burn alive, it’s better that way
Blood on the tracks
Feet on the glass

[Chorus]

Straight to the vein
The lies we put to test
(Take it back)
Burn on the outside
We doubt the lives we put to rest
(Take it back)
Can't take it back
(Take back)

Glass formed from grains of sand
Sharpened by the fire
Cut me deeper
What was shouted out of context cut me deeper

[Chorus]
