Our Remedy Lyrics – Nino Helfrich

[Verse 1]
Poisoned words escape the lips of those with crooked thoughts
The lies were served by guiltless tongues as they rolled off offset perception

[Pre-Chorus]
Taste their sweet deception
I claw through what is condemned
Let their daggers pierce my flesh
The wounds cannot take me

[Chorus]
There is nothing they’ll do to break what’s inside of me (Inside of us)

Holding onto this fight
Our strength is the remedy (Our remedy)

[Verse 2]
Cast me out, leave me for dead
Drown the noises in my head
All I see, is all I know
You are mine, just let me go
Ensnared here my casket’s closed
As all my friends become my foes
To remain in shadows I refuse
Truth’s the punishment I choose

[Pre-Chorus]
Taste their sweet deception
I claw through what is condemned
Through what is condemned

[Chorus]
There is nothing they’ll do to break what’s inside of me (Inside of us)
Holding onto this fight
Our strength is the remedy

[Post-Chorus]
Our strength is the remedy

[Breakdown]
Built, built to fail
Broken down, broken down you’re frail
Stuck in a time where their notions mislead
A glimpse of a smile and a handshake of greed
You make up for your dream by stealing my own
By building a lie with a price you can’t sell
These are my thoughts, these are my words
These are the stories you wish you could tell

[Pre-Chorus]
There is nothing they’ll do
There is nothing they’ll do (Inside of us)
Holding onto this fight
Our strength is the remedy

[Chorus]
There is nothing they’ll do to break what’s inside of me (Inside of us)
Holding onto this fight
Our strength is the remedy (Our remedy)
