As I Lay Dying Beyond Our Suffering Lyrics

Bound to learn the hard way
This is the human condition
There is nothing that can be said
To stop us from making mistakes
When I look to myself as a source of
ending pain
No matter how many times before I've
failed

It seems our problems solve themselves
When we look beyond us to those truly
in hell

The more I focus on myself
Then the more helpless that I become
So why not erase this point of view?
My suffering is trivial
Compared to those who know real agony It seems our problems solve themselves
When we look beyond us to those truly
in hell
It seems our problems solve themselves
When we look beyond our suffering

My trials seem insignificant now

Why won't we look beyond us?
Why won't we look beyond our despair?
It seems our problems solve themselves
When we look to those truly in hell

Personal redemption cannot change the
world
Unless we lay down our lives for those
who still suffer
