Do Not Let Me Sink
by Empty

Album: Hope and the Loss of It

Verse 1
Black tongues
Dripping fabrications
There's no indication
That you'll change your ways

Pre-Chorus 1
I've sunken down to this place
I'm crawling out this hole
Pull me to my feet
Let me take control

Chorus
Our lips have gone numb
Every word's a cold gun
Pressed against our head
Look what we've become
No love escaping our lungs
The malice that we spread
Is better left unsaid

Verse 2
Sharp eyes
Wander self righteously
Always darting between
Wrong and clouded grey

Pre-Chorus 2
May peace find us
Let hope fill our veins
I'm not lost
Yet still I'll shout your name

Chorus
Our lips have gone numb
Every word's a cold gun
Pressed against our head
Look what we've become
No love escaping our lungs
The malice that we spread
Is better left unsaid

Bridge
Vices wrapping around my throat
I can't breathe, I start to choke
This won't be the end of me
I'll rise again from the dust and debris

Chorus
Our lips have gone numb
Every word's a cold gun
Pressed against our head
Look what we've become
No love escaping our lungs
The malice that we spread
Is better left unsaid
