Demon Hunter, Howard Jones - Our Faces Fall Apart lyrics

Where is the inception of digression
In a human life?
When is the answer just a bright light?
Who am I in shamelessly defining
All the wrong and right?
What is the difference if we all die?
I am not the first, the last, the absolute
You will find no clarity in me
I am the deceased, the least, the solitude
Failing every face I try to be

I'm not your progress, the pay of your pains
I'm stabbing the questions for
Answers I can't face
I'm losing the battle and finding
No life to retrace
I built this anguish with my own hands
I felt the burn inside my heart
I built this anguish with my own hands
I watched our faces fall apart

I felt the tears of all your angels, so cold
I saw the fall of all your children
I'm so cold

We are just a fraction of the
Poison living in this place
How can we answer with a straight face?
Who are you in gauging every standard
You would have us chase?
Are we alone to run the last race?
We are all the weak, the meek, the innocent
Kissing every fault that we disgrace
We are of the worst, the cursed, the desolate
Leaving every hope that we embrace

I'm not your progress, the pay of your pains
I'm stabbing the questions for
Answers I can't face
I'm losing the battle and finding
No life to retrace
I built this anguish with my own hands
I felt the burn inside my heart
I built this anguish with my own hands
I watched our faces fall apart

I felt the tears of all your angels, so cold
I saw the fall of all your children
I'm so cold

You turn your eyes to me
In hope of my decline
Pointing your blame as I
Faltered on that line
We saw your slander when you
Pulled it off the shelf if you want justice
You'll point it at yourself
Face your fears, trace your tears
Kill that blind assumption that you
Know how I react inside i am not so hollow
You can't see what grows inside my mind
Straight-faced, straight-faced

I built this anguish with my own hands
I felt the burn inside my heart
I built this anguish with my own hands
I watched our faces fall apart
I felt the tears of all your angels, so cold
I saw the fall of all your children
I'm so cold
