Pandora

Cedar grains cling to woven skin upon walls I know frail truths feed borrowed dreams grown cold
 And from here I beg release and hope
 I hope
 Breathing through these lines
 Innocence lost among the torment of grace within the storm
 Seeking darkness in the dawn
 While the emptiness divides every purpose with the light
 I fade, I fade
 Without a key, without a sound
 Without a chance to hold the light
 It reaches in between the seams
 To tease the madness and the grief
 To curse the walls, to cure the need
 To curse the damned who damn the need
 The need to know what lies beyond, beyond the walls
 Turn the key (turn the key...)
 And set free
 This I swear
 It's not enough for me to die alone
 Uproot these veins that fail to bleed
 So I will know and I will still believe we're better
 Than these lies that we have learned to breathe
 Breathing I step beyond the past and let it go
