Lyrics for The Crux

Another sinking stone Finds its way down below Resurface when only light will ever show And while I progress slow I'm soon to surpass you Entitled to all possessions I have adored I feel pressure I feel the pressure And all the faded bones Piling up high and low Returning to life once you can stand alone Don't get too close this time The depths of love haunt you It's dark inside where all my demons hide I feel pressure I feel the pressure Waiting with patience of eons Your presence fades into a memory Underneath a cloud of silence, you journey into the rift Will time defy the weight of you leaving us I feel pressure I feel the pressure Hold aggression Hold aggression
