Enthrall The Weak - Beyond The Veil

Track #4 off their 2013 release, "Like It Or Not"

[jessematthews]

Lyrics are so raw...Reality, you have betrayed me. Calling witness to the fact that I can't find my way.
I laugh to hide the destruction, while there's a stranger within my smile.
And pride's a whisper tonight but I can't see to care...

This veil's a lie!
Cause I can't stop my soul from screaming.
This rage inside!
My apologies to those who've seen my decay on display.
And it's a better man that forsakes all his fears.
But I can't survive if I give into this hatred, so five tears fall.

I own this weakness, my cries will not be a crime, Never convicted.
A need for balance is reflected. Guess that's a reason for this bloodshot mind, bleeding perfection over time.

Denied a guarantee for fruition, but I can say that if you look me in my eyes you'll know that I am stronger, I will conquer.
Deprived of an emotional outlet. We are expected to defy our sense of self dejection but I am stronger, I will conquer.

-Sometimes, revealing one's pain is the only way to prevail, to let the poison out.-
Exposing wounds to a new air. I pray for answers amidst the fire. My pride's a whisper tonight but I don't think I care...
This veil's a lie!
Cause I can't stop my soul from screaming.
This rage inside!
My apologies to those who've seen my decay on display. And it's a better man that forsakes all his fears.
But I can't survive if I give into this hatred, so five tears fall.

I own this weakness, my cries will not be a crime. Not this time.

Denied a guarantee for fruition, but I can say that if you look me in my eyes you'll know that I am stronger, I will conquer.
Deprived of an emotional outlet. We are expected to defy our sense of self dejection but I am stronger, I will conquer.
My pain's been primed and my tears are a weapon. I've forged an armor from all the hate I have inside.
My life has always been fight to deny my emotions, but this time I'm embracing the hate inside and I won't be broken. No not this time, never convicted, even though they tried.
Denied a guarantee for fruition, but I can say that if you look me in my eyes you'll know that I am stronger, I will conquer.
Deprived of an emotional outlet. We are expected to defy our sense of self dejection but I am stronger, I will conquer.
