In the Shadow of a Mountain - Bastions

We are beggars of the murdered, where nothing matters anymore

As I’m surrounded by friends with false faces

All the reasons are here, but less is more, more or less

So I’m sustained in fluids and bloods and I’m cupped to this poisoned breast

In your shadow, you doctored every part of me

In your shadow, partially patient I dislocate my arm free

The truth in your frightened eyes

Throws a shadow over all that aches inside

Sheltered and weak, temporary peace

The truth in your frightened eyes

Throws a shadow over all that aches inside

Sheltered and weak, temporary peace

We float in perfect failure

Staring into the abyss, such a shame to find me staring back

As I’m cast away, on that river of sadness

With two hands and a bucket of pain

I eat your gospel, it tastes like rumors to me

In your shadow, you doctored every part of me

In your shadow, partially patient I dislocate my arm free

In your shadow, my worth was no cost

In your shadow, I traded time with loss

The truth in your frightened eyes

Throws a shadow over all that aches inside

Sheltered and weak, temporary peace

The truth in your frightened eyes

Throws a shadow over all that aches inside

Sheltered and weak, temporary peace

I am forever

Forever is all I have

I am forever

Forever is all I have
