When everything is heavy but you cannot feel the weight You must've put the balances on someone else's fate And that was the beginning of the end that you will see A shallow recognition of the life you chose to leave It happens all too often, people give themselves away Accept the hands of others when they think they cannot stay But even if the truth puts reassurance in their heads The power they possess is like a prison for the dead Because you aren't walking and your feet are not your own You haven't the ability to set a different tone

Hands & Feet
When everything is heavy but you cannot feel the weight You must've put the balances on someone else's fate And that was the beginning of the end that you will see A shallow recognition of the life you chose to leave It happens all too often, people give themselves away Accept the hands of others when they think they cannot stay But even if the truth puts reassurance in their heads The power they possess is like a prison for the dead Because you aren't walking and your feet are not your own You haven't the ability to set a different tone
for me, for those who give it all away
