Magic That I Held You Prisoner Lyrics & Chords By The Dillinger Escape Plan

Out of the vile
I can see
You hold the grace infinite

Shine out the dark
Miracle

Felt you reaching out
Caught you as we were both falling down
Down

We were tricked and scared stiff
From the clock that ticks slow
Laughing
Take this gift for nothing
Don't feel shame

Sordid salted eyes
Slow burning from outside
Closed swollen
Drop your shield
Start searching
Don't look far

You had to be an angel
Stripped like Abel
Out to burn for everyone
But still there is a glowing
Unconsumed that grows new

All the stars meant to shine
But when falling mesmerize
Don't look away
Stop and stare
To catch your reflection and move on
The light for you deserve
You don't have to burn for anyone

You hold grace
You can't see
A self that is no self
No shell depicts a true projection
Caught you as we fell
Now shine out the light from the dark
