Crack the Shell
you're suffering
drain your pain
fall into the sun
dance alone in the darkness
become the one
you break me open
you stair into my heart
i break you open
i look away
fire rains down on you
i was your water
the sun beats down on you
i was your shade
i saw your past
i saw your future
you once dreamed of so much more
drain your pain
fall into the sun
dance alone in the darkness
become the one
you break me open
you stair into my heart
i break you open
i look away
fire rains down on you
i was your water
the sun beats down on you
i was your shade
i saw your past
i saw your future
you once dreamed of so much more
