Lyrics
0:32He bends and he breaks
0:37If you give they will take away
0:43His passion his pain his grace
0:48He exhales
0:52A thousand black flowers explode
0:57Into butterflies as they're away
1:05Rip them out take them
1:07Burn to coals as they crush and
1:10Leave nothing
1:12That resembles a soul of a man
1:15(See him numb See him crushed)
1:19See him numb See him crushed
1:24Rip them out take them
1:26Burn to coals as they crush and
1:29Leave nothing
1:31That resembles a soul of a man
1:34(Leave him numb leave him crushed)
1:38Leave him numb leave him crushed
1:43Took the fire inside
1:47One too many times
1:49He's burning over and out now
1:53He flails
1:54Up against the raging tides
1:59No more fights
2:01Everything you ever wanted to see
2:06See it in his eyes
2:08One more time one more time
2:13Climb down to test the waters
2:15My hands feel like they're rusting away yeah yeah
2:20So I'll pace around like a lamb before the slaughter
2:27I'll stay here as long as you let me
2:31Decisions been made obvious so I will return
2:35Where I started I'll stay here
2:41Unfinished
2:42I'll wither away
2:46Rip them out take them
2:48Burn to coals as they crush and
2:50Leave nothing
2:53That resembles a soul of a man
2:57(See him numb See him numb)
3:00See him numb See him crushed
3:05Rip them out take them
3:07Burn to coals as they crush and
3:09Leave nothing
3:12That resembles a soul of a man
3:15(Leave him numb leave him crushed)
3:19Leave him numb leave him crushed
He bends and he breaks If you give they will take away His passion his pain his grace He exhales A thousand black flowers explode Into butterflies as they're away Rip them out take them Burn to coals as they crush and Leave nothing That resembles a soul of a man (See him numb See him crushed) See him numb See him crushed Rip them out take them Burn to coals as they crush and Leave nothing That resembles a soul of a man (Leave him numb leave him crushed) Leave him numb leave him crushed Took the fire inside One too many times He's burning over and out now He flails Up against the raging tides No more fights Everything you ever wanted to see See it in his eyes One more time one more time Climb down to test the waters My hands feel like they're rusting away yeah yeah So I'll pace around like a lamb before the slaughter I'll stay here as long as you let me Decisions been made obvious so I will return Where I started I'll stay here Unfinished I'll wither away Rip them out take them Burn to coals as they crush and Leave nothing That resembles a soul of a man (See him numb See him numb) See him numb See him crushed Rip them out take them Burn to coals as they crush and Leave nothing That resembles a soul of a man (Leave him numb leave him crushed) Leave him numb leave him crushed
