Seen Through Ice Lyrics

Now entertain the thought
If with good consciousness
You could say "little one
There is nothing to worry about
Everything will be alright"
And not feel like you're lying

Somehow I feel like I've seen this before
Trapped in this tragic looping epilogue
Wade through the filth knee deep
the footprints filled with tears
Which of us have crossed the line?
Everything is like seen through ice
Everything will be fine
and everyone is lying

Now entertain the thought
if one understood
the consequences of
what they're aiming for
Through the fire and anguish
to wear the cape
of a poetic hero
at the expense of everyone else

As if

No more is sorrow guiding our hands
No more is my art the blood on the sand
Soaring through the skies as if blessed with faith
Soon like stone you'll fall right back to your place

The moral high ground
stays exactly the same
All comes back down to where it began
The narrative is tiring, it all feels the same
Soon like a stone you'll fall right back to your place

Somehow I feel like I've seen this before
Trapped in this tragic looping epilogue
Wade through the filth knee deep
the footprints filled with tears
Which of us have crossed the line?
Everything is like seen through ice
and everything will be fine
and everyone is lying

To get away from the pain
so that they won't have to face
what is the consequence
what is the expense
of crossing the line
Everything is like seen through ice
Maybe the next story's alright
Maybe the next time we'll be fine
