lyrics

Better Than You Know

they did not protect you
you came to believe the lies they told
they did not embrace you
but locked the door and kept you in the cold

they did not perceive you
you just served the ends that they desired
they did not respect you
you were bent to fit what they required

we are sculpted we are made
by the blinded wielders of the blade
we are hammered we are wrought
by twisted metaphors they taught

you’re much better than you know
though they haunt you from below 2X

they did not support you
but there was too much heart in you to die
they did not define you
fated best to love and testify

we are sculpted we are made
by the blinded wielders of the blade
we are hammered we are wrought
by twisted metaphors they taught

they did not reflect you
and you accepted you were base and wrong
they did not sustain you
and you grew up so fragile and so strong

you’re much better than you know
though they haunt you from below 2X
