Succumb (2021,2022)

Song from a dream entangled in pain
Captured like a prisoner, No way to escape from the chains

Drowned in disillusion, No path to resolution 

But I found a way, carved my getaway 


I didn’t wanna succumb to you
I didn’t wanna succumb to you

So I awake and take my saving grace

no I won’t look back on yesterday

Tales of schemes you played
Knew of the forecast, fell for it anyway
Transfixed in disillusion, Petrified by your intrusion 

But I found a way, carved my getaway

I didn’t wanna succumb to you
I didn’t wanna succumb to you

So I awake and take my saving grace

no I won’t look back on yesterday

Now I can’t evade the warmth of your gaze 

hypnotic eyes, guide me tonight 

transcending time 

I didn’t wanna succumb to you
But I think I might’ve found a breakthrough 

So I awake and take my leap with faith

Now I won’t look back on yesterday
