VIII - Solvent (Strength)

V6

[Intro] [Hook] Fear seeks, The path of least resistance, Oh, and any chance it finds, It'll climb inside, And fill the cracks, Fill the cracks, In our minds! [Breakdown] Yeah-! [Verse] Take the jabs, Fall and fail, Crawl and flail, It's always a trial, Sometimes it feels like- Like there's no reason, To ever smile, no, Sometimes the mind is veiled, The body shackled, To mold and stale, Cuttin' away, Facades, Distancing terminology, Self-imposed alchemy, Excuse parades, Fear remains, The cause of all this mess, yeah. [Guitar Solo] [Pre-Chorus] Avenge, The losses, From the trickery, This world, While beautiful, Is rife with miseries, Corruption, Constructions, By our humanity, We make our own lives harder- Harder than they gotta be, [Chorus] Oh! Solvent! Solvent for the muck gumming up, The inner-workings of us, When we're working, On redefining who we are, Who, Do you wanna be? The old you, with all that baggage, Clinging to what used to be? Solvent to wipe away, Oh, wipe away, The stains that accumulate, [Trumpet Solo] [Guitar Solo] [Verse] Ugh, And, really, Do you wanna be held back, By the wrongs dealt, Way back when? You know, Fear has an origin, Within ignorance, And the harms we haven't let go yet, I know, Scars never go away, The goal isn't to forget, no, But to learn, And forgive for your own sake, [Hook] Cause fear seeks, The path of least resistance, Oh, and any chance it finds, It'll climb inside, And fill the cracks, Fill the cracks, In our minds! [Bridge] You have, You have the strength within, To forgive, You have, You have the strength within, To climb again, You have, You have the strength within, To learn new ways, To better your ways, To fight for a better day, Ah yeah, You have the strength within. You have the strength within! [Pre-Chorus] Avenge, The losses, From the trickery, This world, While beautiful, Is rife with miseries, Corruption, Constructions, By our humanity, We make our own lives harder- Harder than they gotta be, [Chorus] Oh! Solvent! Solvent for the muck gumming up, The inner-workings of us, When we're working, On redefining who we are, Who, Do you wanna be? The old you, with all that baggage, Clinging to what used to be? Solvent! Solvent to wipe away, Oh, wipe away, The stains that accumulate, [Outro] The one thing evil hates, More than anything, Is forgiveness.
