The Sun, the Moon, the Truth: “Penance of Self” Lyrics
[Verse 1]
You’ve heard it all before
“This time won’t be the same, you can trust me”
But you know my fucking game
Say what I have to, to get what I need
Now the evil delivered swings back at me
Weak attempts at change
Carry me backward
Too little, too late
Now live with the hurt
For everything I have an excuse
But some things are not long hidden:
The sun, the moon, the truth
[Pre-Chorus]
Now I live with the hurt
Live with the hurt
This is what I deserve
[Chorus]
Break me down
The only way I’ll learn
The guilt is overwhelming
Take me out, the pain of me returns
My sins fucking destroy me
[Verse 2]
I am forced to face the fire I create
And watch as it annihilates everything
Hold me back while I watch it burn
The price I pay, the suffering returns
Now the hands of fate are here to collect
Nothing here is safe until I reflect
I run from myself, no end in sight
Numb on the inside from living a lie
[Pre-Chorus]
Now I watch as it burns
Watch as it burns
This is what I deserve
[Chorus]
Break me down
The only way I’ll learn
The guilt is overwhelming
Take me out, the pain of me returns
My sins fucking destroy me
[Bridge]
You can shelter yourself from the sun
And you can hide from the moon
But there is nothing you can do
When the truth strikes its light on you
[Breakdown]
Now I must live with the hurt
Now I must live with the hurt
[Outro]
The pain of me returns
The pain of me returns
The pain of me returns
Now I must live with the hurt
