The Valley

Lyrics

Circle down to the mouth of the valley
 Kneel now down at the face, at the gate
 As every footfall crumbles so fast beneath me
 Under the weight of this eternal shame
 And to you who've given up in the valley
 And to you who've given all to its wake
 Just another endless night falls around thee
 Just another grey landscape to face
 ♪
 I want to step into the armor of another, stronger
 I want to look once through the eyes of someone good
 So I can gather up the names of our mothers
 And wash away the shame and lift them to sainthood
 But if you have given up in the valley
 And if you have given all to its wake
 It's just another endless night fall around me
 Just another fucked up thing I can't save
 But always run forever miles, does it end?
 Then another wall rises in the distance
 Their horizon parts for none, where mothers failed
 To carry all their weight, I will be brave
 Yes, I will be brave
 You feel them?
 Those who have fallen
 Stacked up like stones in a pile
 I feel them
 A tower of failures
 So twisted and vile
 You see them there?
 Ancient and seething
 Get them out of my way
 You see them?
 Those who have fallen
 Get 'em out of my way
 You see 'em?
 Those who have fallen
 Stacked up like stones in a pile
 You see them?
 A tower of failures
 Get 'em out of my way
 You see them?
 Ancient and seething
 Twisted and vile
 You see them?
 Those who have fallen
 Get them out of my way
 You see 'em there?
 A tower of failures
 Get 'em out of my way
