Song language: English
Destruction or Strength |
| Whether locked up or on top of the world |
| I felt the same sense of unrest |
| Pursuing numbers |
| The approval of others |
| Outward illusions of success |
| Just an illusion (illusion) |
| An illusion masking restlessness |
| All ending in a downward spiral |
| Rock bottom is all relative |
| Some people lose their homes |
| And others lose their heart |
| The sad truth is i lost them both |
| ‘cause i perilously chose |
| To compromise my soul |
| I could not see past all the distraction |
| (distraction, destruction) |
| Until everything to hide behind… |
| Until everything to hide behind was gone |
| Now that everything is gone |
| I’m free, free to see without distraction |
| There’s nowhere left to hide |
| As i face what is inside |
| What is inside |
| Now changing like the tide |
| Devoid of peace but now finding |
| What brings serenity |
| And what can be centering |
| But it’s not the things it used to be |
| Because they have been taken |
| And cannot be retrieved |
| Now that everything to hide behind |
| (distraction, destruction) |
| Until everything to hide behind was gone |
| Now that everything is gone |
| I’m free, free to see without distraction |
| There’s nowhere left to hide |
| As i face what is inside |
| What is inside |
| What is left (what is left) |
| When you take it all away (when you take it all away)? |
| A battle between desolation and sorrow |
| Leaving behind destruction or strength |
| Destruction or strength |
| Destruction or strength |
| Whether locked up or on top of the world |
| I felt the same sense of unrest |
| But now it’s gone |
| Now that everything is gone |
| I’m free, free to see without distraction |
| There is nowhere left to hide |
| As i face what is inside |
| What is inside |
| Whether locked up or on top of the world |
| I felt the same sense of unrest |
| But now it’s gone |
| (what is inside) |
| Just an illusion |
| An illusion masking restlessness |
