Chapters Songtext
von Dream State

Born on a blacklist
My shadow made plain
You saw me as perfect
Despite my mistakes

Sewn in the throes of your pain
An anchor of love to keep me from drifting away
Visions of your final page have plagued me
Now I′m flipping through the chapters again

Forgiving and so tender
(It's only right, it′s only right)
Unconditional, forever
(Until the end, my work is done)

I missed my chance and now it's welling up inside of me

We open the floodgates and drown in our words
Maybe now, my sorrows can ventilate again
I promise it wasn't in vain
I promise the path that I walk wouldn′t be the same
Every step misplaced, I brought back
I swear I can do it again


Undisciplined and infectious
(We all are, we all are)
We lose control and it wrecks us
(We can mend and make amends)

I′ve brought you shame so many times now
I don't know if you′ll ever see me the same way again

Listen up, listen up, dear, listen up
Tell me what's been going on
You opened your heart and showed your soul
It shouldn′t be a burden you hold

We're fighting our reflection
(We all are, we all are)
We′re grieving for our fiction
(Release yourself, it's for your health)

Your door was closed
I opened mine
Already crushed by our loss
Can I forgive myself for not choosing a better time?

I know you won't be the first
And damned if we won′t be the last
The things we can′t undo
Can't become our undoing


Benevolent mother, your sister is here
Benevolent mother, your sister is here
Benevolent mother
