joshua p. kennedy - the crucible and the chaff lyrics
[verse 1]
i’m feeling trapped and held back
i’m feeling the cold attack
of the world that i’m in
if i could break my way out
whether it’s with or without
absolution of my sins
and even though i’m stuck here
it’s not the dark that i fear
it is the silence of my voice
so this is my new home now
a crucible of self-doubt
but i do have a choice
[pre-chorus 1]
though i am paralyzed
i am not mute
i’m bound, but i’m not gagged
and that’s why i’m singing to you
[chorus 1]
the barbs of heartache wrap tight
not saying that it is right
or easy to remove
and when i get my strength up
will that be enough
to make it through? oh
[verse 2]
then when the crucible breaks
my catatonic state
is finally repealed
am i still at the mercy
of the world around me?
my prison is revealed
the whirlwinds all blow me
like chaff, i am only
bound in another way
bound by my forced movement
is this really improvement
from being forced to stay?
[pre-chorus 2]
though i am pushed both here and there
i am not mute
still bound and still not gagged
i’ll keep singing out to you!
[chorus 2]
but my heavy words
will tether me to the earth
and i’ll have control
then i’ll be my own man
who moves his own hands
with his own soul. oh
