Underlying Currents - Berdon Kirksæther

I cast aside faith You see these hands are trembling so why push me? I can't be bothered being everything that you need Always on about making the right choice But how should I know when I just can't stop what I've pushed away for way too long, the path I know is gone I take this pain as if I could wake up, say I'm done Brush it off and forget it My mind is stuck I bring the worst out within myself There's too many nights I've been kept up that I've had enough Don't tell me that I think too much And I've never felt so out of touch Pull me away from my pain I can't stop this hate, I can't stop this hate I can't stop the shaking and can't stand the sight of my face I can't stop this hate, I can't stop this hate I pray to be back to days where there was substance I can't forgive these feelings that I hold inside, they destroy me No matter what I say, I still feel this fucking hate Nothing gets past you, or so you think Always putting your faith where it shouldn't be So you can pull the claws out from under my skin; I won't let you in I don't want you in my head Wrong from the start, I see right through Everything you hate in me will blow right back on you It's taking over all of me And there goes all the progress that I've made It's taking over all of me And there goes my progress, I'll never leave Pull me away from my pain I can't stop this hate, I can't stop this hate I can't stop the shaking and can't stand the sight of my face I can't stop this hate, I can't stop this hate I take this pain as if I could wake up, say I'm done Brush it off and forget it My mind is stuck I bring the worst out within myself There's too many nights I've been kept up that I've had enough Don't tell me that I think too much

Don't think twice We're still in formation Testing the current Already I'm sailing, it's all so sudden Catching a flight You think we're moving too fast, I'm Intoxicated We can move in slow motion if that's what you want, babe I don't want to come on too strong But I'm moving to your room now With every move, with every move you make, babe I'm tumbling In your own time Would you show me something please, babe? Don't wanna wait in vain You're the missing piece I, I been longing for Don't deny, oh no The temperature's rising inside The cracks are showing Show me all your colors, I may not deserve you I don't want to come on too strong But I'm moving to your room now With every move, with every move you make, babe I'm tumbling

Roll up another cigarette Using the minute that it takes To think about the power of your words We're living in the currents you create We're sinking in the pool of your mistakes So stub it out, your podium awaits Oh my God, my God I can't quite believe my ears I'm swimming to the surface I'm coming up for air Cause you're making me feel nervous I need to clear my head I can't believe my ears I don't wanna believe my ears I'm swimming to the surface I'm coming up for air How can you think you're serious? Do you even know what year it is? I can't believe the scary points you make Still living in the currents you create Still sinking in the pool of your mistakes Won't you stop firing up the crazies? Oh my God, my God I can't quite believe my ears I'm swimming to the surface I'm coming up for air Cause you're making me feel nervous I need to clear my head I can't believe my ears I don't wanna believe my ears I'm swimming to the surface I'm coming up for air When anybody preaches disunity, Tries to pit one of us against the other... You know that person seeks to rob us of our freedom and destroy our very lives Oh, I need a breath I need a breath Fill my lungs Let me fill my lungs Oh, I need a breath I need a breath Fill my lungs Let me fill my lungs Oh, I need a breath I need a breath Fill my lungs Let me fill my lungs Oh, I need a breath I need a breath Fill my lungs Let me fill my lungs I'm swimming to the surface I'm coming up for air Cause you're making me feel nervous I need to clear my head I can't believe my ears I don't wanna believe my ears I'm swimming to the surface I'm coming up for air

Light the fire tonight, our bones are tired and bruised But it's warming To sit in silence with brightened eyes as we start anew Maybe this is our chance to Tip the scales and play the gods We know that we all never will be Change the world, defy the odds For we owe what cannot be repaid And there's no stopping our minds From spinning over again All that matters is we keep moving Oh God, we tried to overcome the pain But all that's left for now is to face the lives that lie beyond us Don't say no, we will run till the sun won't guide us Don't say no, we will run till the sun won't guide us home Instead of mending the scars You cut right over them, can you tell me If life's not worth it to start Why don't we start accepting the people we're dying to be? Hell's become a part of me When you look at yourself, do you look through me? Hell's become a part of me When you look at yourself, do you look through me? Hell's become a part of me When you look at yourself, do you look through me? Hell's become a part of me When you look at yourself, do you look at me? Born of the bred We had no way of choosing our existence Don't save us like we're unworthy of your forgiveness Don't save us like we're unworthy of your forgiveness God, we tried to overcome the pain But all that's left for now is to face the lives that lie beyond us Don't say no, we will run till the sun won't guide us Don't say no, we will run till the sun won't guide us home Another match to add to the flame Another backed-up memory Of what you'll never be to me Of what you'll never be to me Is it a testament to your grace When all the love left still remains? It's such a shame you had to leave I would've loved to meet you here
