lyrics

Stand!

Remove the weight
The guilt
The burden
That you've carried for so long

Release your soul
From this torment
Climb the tower
As it falls

In vain they attempt
To break you
Weavers of lies
Sewing ruin

We must master
This illusion
Break free from
Delusion

These walls won't hold for long
Climb the marble stairs
Endure this mortal pain
Overcome despair

My weary legs are broken
but I cannot kneel
You won't strike me down
Before my spirit heals

Embrace the folded line
Forget the thought of time
Reclaim your inner self
You're you that's who and no one else

Higher and higher the spiral gyres
Reach up to avoid the fire
Remember who you are

Higher and higher the spiral gyres
Reach up to avoid the fire
Know the truth leaves scars


These walls won't hold for long
Climb the marble stairs
Endure this mortal pain
Overcome despair

My weary legs are broken
But I will cannot kneel
You won't strike me down
Before my spirit heals

If Mastodon, Opeth, and Between the Buried and Me had a three way baby, that'd be us. So check out our album Monolith, a mixture of jazz, metal, rock, and a whole lotta love. ... more
