Lyrics//

I rail against the icy river
Pulling my heart by it’s roots
Dragging and dragging endlessly
The suppression starts to swallow me

DOWN DOWN DOWN
Too Fast!
Shocked to my core
DIVE DIVE DIVE
Breath’s gone
Shake the chains free

Let the dam break free
Feel the tears stream down your face
Feel your walls cave in
You are stronger than your sins

I am the one who will make my decisions
I am the one who will give life direction
Lay down and grieve
Pick up the pieces
Life is yours to live as you please!

I have nothing left to lose

Let the dam break free
Feel the tears stream down your face
Feel your walls cave in
You are stronger than your sins

We are the one, the all and the nothing

Let the dam break free
Feel the tears stream down your face
Feel your walls cave in
You are stronger than your sins

Special thanks to//
