Lyrics for The Cave We Fear To Enter
Our secrets are what make us lonely But no one else knows the weight we carry All I see and all I know is pain All I see and all I know is All I see and all I know is pain All I see and all I know is Paralyzing fear prevents Into the unknown, we must step The cave seems more like an abyss But inside is everything we've missed All our blind spots brought to light And every demon we've tried to fight What becomes of the pain That dwells so deep it can't be seen Who can show the path from shame? To make you believe you're not to blame So once again, we want to run away Far from everything that we love Safe from facing all we're carrying The cave we fear to enter All I see and all I know is pain All I see and all I know is Going further into the abyss We uncover life's fullness Recovering what dwells in the deep The darkest corners no longer mystery Uncharted, unexplored Undiscovered, stranded in the void What becomes of the pain That dwells so deep it can't be seen Who can show the path from shame? To make you believe you're not to blame So once again, we want to run away Far from everything that we love Safe from facing all we're carrying The cave we fear to enter Lay to rest the memories (memories) That hold you down Paralyzing fear prevents Into the unknown, we must step The cave we fear to enter No one else knows Hidden like a ghost Our past torments (our past torments) Will bury us (will bury us), will bury us So once again, we want to run away Far from everything that we love Safe from facing all we're carrying The cave we fear to enter Lay to rest the memories (memories) That hold you down Lay to rest the memories In the cave we fear to enter All I see and all I know is pain All I see and all I know is All I see and all I know is pain All I see and all I know is
