I Sever - Sylosis

I shed this skin like a weightless veil wrapped around a statue

I flooded the past to see what would surface

And there was nothing to hold onto

Familiar hands reached out to pull me to the ground

The knife in my back was the jewel in your crown

Misplaced dependency

A slave to the anxiety

But distance doesn’t always make those faces fade

I am torn in two

Can’t distinguish the lies from truth

Cut through this world that I am attached to

Cohort to bane

I sever, I sever

Crooked reflection

Disposed to separate

Cohort to bane

I sever, I sever

Crooked reflection

I’ll cut the cord completely

Remnants of the past resound

Never too late to burn those bridges down

Cohort to bane

I sever, I sever

Crooked reflection

Disposed to separate

Cohort to bane

I sever, I sever

Crooked reflection

I’ll cut the cord completely

Here I now lay this to rest

Fare thee well, my ally

Feels like I may drift forever

On this fire I will burn

Here I now lay this to rest

Fare thee well, my ally

Feels like I may drift forever
