Surrender Your Sons... lyrics

[Intro: Cory Brandan]
Left alone

[Verse 1: Chino Moreno]
Your pale skin is a razor sharp wire
So I place these scales over my eyes
Don't touch me, I'm sick
You whisper, but I hear only what I choose

[Chorus: Cory Brandan & Chino Moreno]
Hello my good old friend
Your hand pulls me back from that mire
Will I look back and stare
And wonder if she is way back there?

[Post-Chorus: Chino Moreno]
But afterwards my mouth
Will be filled with gravel
And I'm left alone

[Verse 2: Chino Moreno]
You know that feeling of fear and desperation
In the pit of your stomach that's making you nauseous
Excitement, apprehension
You wish you could lose it all
[Chorus: Cory Brandan & Chino Moreno]
Hello my good old friend
Your hand pulls me back from that mire
Will I look back and stare
And wonder if she is way back there?

Hello my good old friend
Your hand pulls me back from that mire
Will I look back and stare
And wonder if she is way back there?

[Post-Chorus: Chino Moreno]
But afterwards my mouth
Will be filled with gravel
And afterwards I'm left alone

[Bridge: Cory Brandan & Cove Reber]
The fear of dealing with this is stronger
Than the fear of just forgetting this
And future, I am scared of you

[Interlude: Cory Brandan]
Left alone

[Chorus: Cory Brandan & Chino Moreno]
Hello my good old friend
Your hand pulls me back from that mire
Will I look back and stare
And wonder if she is way back there?
[Outro: Cove Reber, Cory Brandan & Cove Rever]
I swear I will find my way back
I swear I will find my way back to the light
I swear, I swear
Now that I'm left alone
I'm left alone
