When all thats left is yourself
Hand are shaking, deny temptation
Bones are shattered, I’m still standing
Defenses are slowly fading, I won’t give in to your compromise
Never crumble, no not this time
I am sick of lying to myself, it won’t always be OK
The hole gets deeper everyday (everyday)
My nails are worn, and fingers bleeding, still I rebury myself
Thinking that there is another way, a better way
There’s no way
There is no way
The walls have all decayed, so now I can burrow through and eliminate
One more obstacle
I will shed my skin, leaving me so sanctified so that no force can overcome
Challenged, this is my fight
Battered, I will not break
Beaten, I will seize the day
Again, make no mistakes
The final chapter seems so distant, still I carry on
My old path calls to me but I’m still unrelenting
With no shame I take aim, this will be my greatest stand
Challenged, this is my fight
Battered, I will not break
Beaten, I will seize the day
Again, make no mistake
-------------------------------
Traitor, don’t you turn your back on me
Traitor, don’t you walk away from me
I will break you, watch your entire world crumble
I will drop you, watch your entire world fall
Turn your back, look away, lost in false security
I trust you won’t be so corrupted, though it fluttered in your face
Did you need to steal a taste, Edens’ apple was the last mistake by you
Our bond is all but gone, you can’t replace your dignity
Our bond is all but gone, you escape your treachery
Your betrayal is my disgust, wipe your face my with my trust
You should change your name to Benedict
Close your eyes, hide away, whatever saves you today
Know that you can never escape me
I will have my revenge
You backed yourself in a corner
You tried to steal my self-respect
You backed yourself in a corner
It’s mine turn take and I’ll take it
Now you cower, pull away, pining for my sympathy
Face is turning yellow, no remorse for you
Our bond is all but gone, you can’t replace your dignity
Our bind is all but gone, you can’t escape
Traitor, don’t you turn your back on me
Traitor
I will have my revenge
You backed yourself in a corner
You tried to steal my self-respect
You backed yourself in a corner
It’s mine to take and I’ll take it back.
------------------------------------------
Come into my own, come into my own
Look inside myself, see the path that I’ve chosen
It’s time for me to lose the pain I’ve found
Hating everyday, never live for the moment
I want to scream until this cell corrodes
And I’ve thrown it all away, I’ve thrown it all away, It’s time for me to take this back myself
These days are all gone, waking to madness, in time to see the only life I’m living for
These days are all gone, living in the darkness, I walk alone, on my own
Look the other way, never saw the weakness in living life in chains that drag me down
Running through the maze, with no sense of direction, can’t give in until I find a way through
I’ll take this bullet between the eyes, I’ll take this, now it’s my time
I’ll take this bullet between the eyes, I’ll take this, it’s my time
These days are all gone, waking to the madness, in time to see the only life I’m living for
These days are all gone, living in the darkness, I walk alone
All alone
Come into my own, come into my own, it’s time for me
These days are all gone, now it’s time to come into my own
These days are all gone, now it’s time to come into my own
---------------------------------------
Live life without you
Without you
How can I live life without you
Without you, how can I
Justify the fallen innocent
Show me where to direct all frustration
Wish I had the power to turn back
If only to saw those three words
Broken
I engage this grief
For you were
My only everything
Fractured
I fell to the floor
Fall, fall for cover, for cover
From truth that scars
And so I'm left bemused and still
Emotionless I'm in disbelief
It feels like I'm dreaming
But I can't stop the screams
Take the pain away from me
Burn so deeply
How can I live life without
You have paved the way for me
Gave me purpose
So I try to live life without you
And so I'm left to search the skies
For answers
This hole inside
Can never be filled without you
Without you
----------------
Stepping up
No excuses are welcome
Take the cog
It's not your time to show the
World you've come
Prisoners are not an option
So draw your guns
And show them who I am
Just another taste
Will heal everything
My arsenal has just been tapped
I found the cure
To insecurity
The phenix will be relased
Stare them down
Nothing can hold me back
Blocking all
Light that shields fear
Powered by
A source like no other
Show them why
You are the one who's strong
The crowd is getting restless
Conveying lack of heart
There's only one way to win
The purest flame
That's ever touched my lips
Will drag this fire out of me
Can't believe how I am
Falling down, falling down
I thought I wouldnt be
So dependent, so dependent
Now I am giving in
To my weakness, to my weakness
Can't stop giving in, giving in
To my weakness, to my weakness
Is this me?
Succumb to weakness
Is this me?
Succumb to weakness
Is this me?
Running far
Run from all my problems
That haunt in me
Must escape
Taking the only poison
That sets me free
Running far
Running from all my problems
That haunt in me
Must escape
Taking the only poison
That sets me free
------------------
We both knew the answers
To our misery and pain that stained our being
Lost in clouds of comfort
So afraid to take the fall into desolation
What could make you fade away?
I can't pretend that there's nothing left
What could make you fade away?
If there's something then I need it to fade away
Make you fade away,
Why can't I make you fade away?
Searching for completion
And so we venture separate ways to find fulfillment
I won't soon forget you
Your mark is branded on my heart and soul forever
What could make you fade away?
I can't pretend that there's nothing left
What could make you fade away?
If there's something then I need it to fade away
Nothing will make you fade away
Nothing
We stand alone
Bonded by our compliance
Examining exactly how this happened
You were the one
The only one I wanted
Your choice was made and
Now I need you to fade away
I need you to fade away
What could make you fade away?
I can't pretend that there's nothing left
What could make you fade away?
If there's something then I need it to fade away
--------------------------
Suffering, stewing in all of this anguish
Why am I forced to just continue beating down myself
Standards forcing me to raise expectation
Am I too shallow for my own good?
The problem I have
Is me
Why can't I have what I yearn for?
Desire eludes me
Never satisfied
What will quench my?
Thirst for more than my world
Can provide for me
Is it a tragedy that I drink water?
'Stead of wine
Such a game that my minds playing on me
Shooting down who may be the perfect one
Contest what's right
For me
Why can't I have what I yearn for?
Desire eludes me
Never satisfied
What will quench my thirst?
I'm sifting through the sands again
To find the meaning
Why is it so hard to find?
The wisdom that eludes
I'm sifting through the sands again
To find the meaning
Am I ever going to find?
The solution that escapes me
Someone please give me the answer
Someone ask the question why?
Someone please give me the answer
Someone ask the question why?
Someone please give me the answer
To the question
Why won't you tell me why?
Someone please give me the answer
To the question
---------------------
Alone again
Haunted by all your shadows
And memories
Coldest rain
Hides emotions that are pouring
From me to you
Crazy again
Forced to face all truth
And exist
And exist
All you had to say
Was you want me to
Leave this life
Leave this life
And I be gone
The torturing
That I put myself through within
Won’t end
Dying within
Cracking up, breaking down
Down to nothing
All you had to say
Was you want me to
Leave this life
Leave this life
And I be gone
Oh, oh, oh
I carry on alone
Knowing that my dignity is strong
If I catch it all away
You’d still be mine today
But inside I’d be hollow
All you had to say
Was you want me to
Leave this life
Leave this life
And I be gone
Then you walked away
With nothing more to say
I never felt this helpless
This helpless… Before
You couldn’t carry on
I guess you had enough
You made your choice
You made your choice
And now you fade away
The coldest rain
Hides emotions that are pouring
From me to you
--------------------
When you think you have nothing left in this world. You have no where to turn. You are left alone. We come into this world alone and die alone. Whats the point in trying to be with someone if all thats left in the end is emptiness. No one will always be there for you. No one will always have your back. In the end. You have nothing but yourself.
