Creatures X: To the Grave

Yeah We sung our lungs out to reach you Spilling our guts on the pavement that we roamed (Far from home) This is my life’s work Forever grateful that you made your hearts our home Cursed, damned, and broken With the sum of my failures all declared in a moment Cursed, damned, and broken Lost, sick, and left unspoken I will take this to the grave I was waiting for my chance to find the life I was chasing My god, what have I become? (A decade in the making) I wore my shame on my sleeve And put my pain on display for all to see (For all to see) This is my life’s work (My life's work) What felt like fire but without a thing to burn turned into a scorched earth Step through the door (Step through the door) 10 years 10 more (10 years) I was waiting for my chance to find the life I was chasing My god, what have I become? (A decade in the making) I’ll take this to the grave There's always a struggle you don’t see (Don't see) Living in fear I proved myself to me Forever stepping through the door to the unknown 10 years, 10 more I was waiting for my chance to find the life I was chasing My god, what have I become? (A decade in the making) I’ll take this to my grave With no stain washed away I’ll take this to my grave With no stain washed away (My god, what have we become?) Become I'll take this to my grave
