Clandestine

lyrics

(Verse)
When did it occur to you that you could no longer breathe?
Has it hit you yet or are you still living in the dream?
This new life applauds you, it makes your day brighter
Because you have been noticed, yet unseen all the same

(Pre-chorus)
When did it occur to you that she would no longer be laying in that grave beside you?
That she finally bled out, fed up with the abuse
She raped you of your money, and your mind left with it
Oh what a mortal sin
What’s worse? The greed or the separation

(Chorus)
God won’t forgive this
If only you just believed in him
With your beautiful mind and ugly heart
With every ounce of your soul
But you just keep on wishing on the unknown
Keep holding on to every ounce of false hope
Because you have been noticed, yet unseen all the same

(Verse)
It has now occurred to me that you were just an excuse
A sad excuse for a father, whose hypocrisy aged his youth
With this new life beside me, my days look much brighter
Because I have been noticed as more than a punching bag

(Pre-chorus)
When did it occur to you that she would no longer be laying in that grave beside you?
That she finally bled out, fed up with the abuse
She raped you of your money, and your mind left with it
Oh what a mortal sin
What’s worse? The greed or the separation

(Chorus)
God won’t forgive this
If only you just believed in him
With your beautiful mind and ugly heart
With every ounce of your soul
But you just keep on wishing on the unknown
Keep holding on to every ounce of false hope
Because you have been noticed, yet unseen all the same

(Bridge)
You can’t tell me you’ll come back and haunt me
When you can’t even see me
I let you carry on, getting away with your psychopathic charm
You made me feel as though I was the only person I could hate enough to harm
But I will hold on…
Despite your burden, a cross heavier to bear than the one of your God
Who lets these demons eat you away at night
I know you hear voices, but you will no longer hear mine
Overrated and overplayed, begging for you to just listen
Mmm…

But you just keep on wishing on the unknown
Keep holding on to every ounce of false hope
Because you have been noticed, yet still unseen by me
