lyrics

Give up to what's not improving
those hand that take and deliver
with all the finished remains you have sold me
it's gone, the taste of my glory and now replaced
by my hunger, withering down by your unsought intrusion
when my needs aren't fulfilled by keeping...

the force in me to a steady lull
silencing me, as I'm gaining on the portions you leave
feed my ill devotion, take your best shot at freeing a force that loves the thrill

This part I hate when we're choosing by chance less fate
and I'm losing vision of how to surpass this endeavor
so now the stakes are much higher because involved
are desires and our behaviors conclude the illusion of clean release, when it's bringing...

the force in me to a steady lull
silencing me, as I'm gaining on the portions you leave
feed my ill devotion, take your best shot at freeing a force that loves the thrill

the past is set by strategic moves that are best for the present, and now the rest proves my humbled defense
summons inside...

the force in me to a steady lull
silencing me, as I'm gaining on the portions you leave
feed my ill devotion, take your best shot at freeing a force that loves the thrill
