Atreyu - The Theft lyrics

He bends and he breaks

If he gives they will take away

His passion, his pain, his grace

He exhales,

A thousand black flowers explode

into butterflies as they're away

Rip them out, take them,

Burn to coals as they crush him

Leave nothing

that resembles a soul of a man

See him numb, see him crushed

Rip them out, take them

Burn to coals as they crush him

Leave nothing

that resembles a soul of a man

Leave him numb, leave him crushed

Took the fire inside

One too many times

He's burning over and out now,

He flails

Up against the raging tides,

No more sides

Everything you ever wanted to see,

See it in his eyes

One more time, one more time

Climb down to test the waters,

My hands feel like they're rusting away,

So I'll pace around like a lamb before the slaughter

I'll stay here as long as you let me,

Decisions been made obvious so I will return

Where I started I'll stay here

Unfinished

I'll wither away

Rip them out, take them,

Burn to coals as they crush him

Leave nothing

that resembles a soul of a man

See him numb, see him crushed

Rip them out, take them

Burn to coals as they crush him

Leave nothing

that resembles a soul of a man

Leave him numb, leave him crushed
