lyrics

I recall when your blood was drawn
Into a seal of regret
I lay weakened for so long
My mind filled with visions I can never forget

Let's unwind this endless chain
Let's make some meaning in our hard-earned pain
That which you make just might leave
And the thing you summon to fill the void often ain't what you seek

Oh my ancestor
What message do you carry
Oh my forbearer
What burden do you bear me

Don't look back on where we walked from
No one can mend what was always undone
Take my hand, walk past these gates
It's high time we buried this terrible weight

Oh my ancestor
What message do you carry me
Oh my forbearer
What burden to you bear me
Oh progenitor
How did it grow so heavy
Will we ever learn
Before we both are buried
