Dismantled
Dismantled (8/23/2005)
[verse 1]
To every single lie I’ve faced
And every single time I traced
My veins to make you go away
And purge you from my fucking brain
In burdened patterns on my skin
Doing wrong to run from sin
Scorching hope to bring me closure
Save me from your cold exposure
Won’t you save me?
[chorus]
I’m like a canyon from a thousand bombs
Eroded down and now I’m torn apart
I’m burned alive by all of your deceit
I drown myself to find some relief
[verse 2]
These simple words won’t pay my way
What you stole’s now what I crave
Bleeding dry all of our pain
To wipe the tears right off our face
I’m grasping onto what is not
I’ll squeeze it ’til it’s all I got
I’ll give to you my last of breaths
And carve your name into my chest
[chorus]
I’m like a canyon from a thousand bombs
Eroded down and now I’m torn apart
I’m burned alive by all of your deceit
I drown myself to find some relief
I drown myself for some…..
[bridge]
Dismantle me
Take me away, break me apart
Dismantle me
Take this away, rebuild my heart
Dismantle
I can no longer take this
I can’t, I can’t
[chorus]
I’m like a canyon from a thousand bombs
Eroded down and now I’m torn apart
I’m burned alive by all of your deceit
I drown myself to find some relief
I drown myself for some…..
[bridge]
Dismantle me
Take me away, break me apart
Dismantle me
Take this away, rebuild my heart
Dismantle
I can’t, I can’t
Note: If this were to be heard, it would be a mix of Staind’s “Outside” and “Devil”. It’s a little hard to explain it, but it’s one of those harder acoustic songs.
