My life fell out of my hands and into This hole where everything′s cold I lose the feeling of guilt. There′s nothing inside, my innocence died. And now the emptiness grows, it′s bringing me down and taking my crown I′ve seen where everything′s dark. It′s here in my soul, I′m losing control.
CHORUS: Have mercy on me. Have mercy on me. Have mercy on me for every thorn I′ve driven in.
Within these walls you′ll see Alone in here - the end.
Before my very last day I′m making it stop. I′m turning it off. I′ll fight the feeling I have until everything′s Gone. Resistance has won Now time is healing these wounds and You are still here releasing my fear My life fell out of my hands. They took it away, I′m taking it back.
(CHORUS)
And everyday I feel like this weight′s Constantly dragging me down Broken for the last time (Never get the best of me, won′t get the best of me) I′ve got a heart of steel, but your words are Constantly bringing me down. I′m open for the first time (Never get the best of me, wont′ get the best of me)
I′ll be the one last breath before this death I′ll be the final glimpse of truth when there′s none left And if I shame your face, degrade your faith I′ll be the first to hide behind disgrace. Blood loss - on account of my failing aim. Treason - at the root of my shameful name.
CHORUS: I found my way to fall. I never meant to break your heart. Breathing in this pain (rejecting all I am) I hear you cry again (Is this my final stand?) Before I go (Before I lose it all) You should know ( I hate myself for hurting you)
I see the burn of the light from from within my grave I feel the pain of contradiction despite decay And if the shadow of doubt will betray this gain Then put an end to me now while the hope remains. Blood loss - on account of my failing aim. Treason - at the root of my shameful name.
(CHORUS)
This is not my life This is not our life Every day I die This is not my life.
It′s buried deep with in the past, I hope it doesn′t last It′s something I already chase, I already chase I try to give it all away, but it′s never gonna fade It′s something I don′t wanna face, I don′t wanna face I know you feel it′s all the same, But I promise that′ll change It′s something I already chase, I already chase You know I′m trying to believe that you′re never gonna leave It′s something I don′t wanna face, I don′t wanna face
There′s nothing left! The fear is gone!
When my heartstrings come undone I will wait for you, I will pray for you Before I make my final run I will stay with you, decay with you
I know I′m not the perfect one, This pain has just begun It′s something I already chase, I already chase You bring me to a better path, It′s everything I asked It′s something I don′t wanna face, I don′t wanna face
There′s nothing left! The fear is gone! There′s nothing left! The fear is gone!
And when my heartstrings come undone I will wait for you, I will pray for you Before I make my final run I will stay with you, decay with you
If you fade out without me, you′ll know all about me If you fade out without me, you′ll know all...
And when my heartstrings come undone I will wait for you, I will pray for you Before I make my final run I will stay with you, decay with you And when my heartstrings come undone I will wait for you, I will pray for you Before I make my final run I will stay with you, decay with you
Trapped behind my state of mind, I took your words and now I′m blind. And everything you′ve given just kills me. Your words swarm me through my soul like locusts. Eating away at any glimpse of focus. Their eyes flaming red like pain. Filling the void once righteous and bloodstained. But words can′t kill the light inside me that tears me from the hate that binds me. I feel it crawling up my spine. But i′ll cut it off before it reaches the bloodline. You′ll never fade me out, you′ll never turn me off. You′ll never reach the end, you′ll never hear enough. You′re half-grasp can′t exterminate my stand. You can′t rule with a broken upper hand. A fragment of what′s been left behind. Trapped behind my state of mind, I took your words and now I′m blind. And everything you′ve given just kills me. Your face brings out the hate that rots me. The face of everyday that haunts me. I can′t pull away my blank stare. A thousand times should prove I don′t care. But hands can′t steal the light that makes me. Or bring me to the fate that breaks me I feel it crawling up my spine. But i′ll cut it off before it reaches the bloodline. You′ll never fade me out, you′ll never turn me off. You′ll never reach the end, you′ll never hear enough. You′re the half-grasp can′t exterminate my stand. You can′t rule with a broken upper hand. A fragment of what′s been left behind. Trapped behind my state of mind, I took your words and now I′m blind. And everything you′ve given just kills me.
It′s in this wake that I find myself Losing the will to resume this Hell When every breath is a dying wish It′s harder to follow the point of this
This broken place that I call my home Has deepened the sorrow that I have sown And I can′t erase what is in my heart I want it to finish before it starts
My own solution insufficient again No false illusion, this devouring threat I break the vessel, giving air to its red
And open my fate to the darkened sky
[Chorus:] I′ve been fading away I′ve been waiting on the call to reach my veins Ready or not No attention to waste Every sorrow of the soul will read my name When I cease to exist
So now I′ve come to the final sleep I pray that forgiveness is mine to keep I know it′s hard to forget this man Driving the failure into your hands
My own solution insufficient again No false illusion, this devouring threat I break the vessel, giving air to its red
I don′t belong here I never saw this on the path I walk The blood-stained walls, the lines of chalk on the floor Its getting so hard I never saw the backlash, when the tide began to rise I can′t remember The way it was when everything felt right My mouth held shut and eyes sealed tight with control
Pre-Chorus: So I remember on the inside
Chorus: I found a dark, infernal place, I don′t wanna face anymore Somehow I won′t stop feeding the pain My heart′s just the same as before
So now I′m stuck here Between the guilty and the insincere The words I′ve spoke have left me here all alone I should have known this I never saw the backlash, when the tide began to rise I wish it all gone I could′ve burned it when I had the choice And now I′d die to kill this noise in my head
Pre-Chorus: Chorus:
If this is all the love my spirit can give Just take it back tonight There is not a reason more to live
All hail the newborn sin Reject the boundaries, soak the cancer in Hope kills the filth you crave So bleed the truth out, fall into that grave Uphold the brand new skin Accept the failure, refuse to rise above Break through the ribcage And tear the heart out from everyone you love
Over and over again We′ll bury the shame underneath the lies we breathe Over and over again We′ll carry the blame for the hell that we can′t leave
Show me - The path that leads into your mind Release - The thoughts you lock so deep inside Show me - I′m the one who knew this pain Release - Before you fall into this again
Behold the loyal slave His rotting shell now a tomb where death can play Seee now his pride caves in Alone he fights to stop this dark decay Feed, Feed the lust you need And fainter grows each plea from skies above Break through the ribcage An tear the heart out from everyone you love
Building a life out of all that you hate We see through the front that you tried to create The world you had hoped for was only a fake And just like the maggots that made you this way I know
I still wonder when the medicine will take it′s effect. And the injection they made, it′s all just left me the same. I′ts hard to concentrate with echos of your voice in my head. From all you said, im still paralyzed.
But I′m almost out of breath from saying things that I′ll regret, that I′ll regret. My time is over I can′t do this alone. But I′m almost out of breath from saying things that I′ll regret, that I′ll regret. My time is over I can′t do this alone.
I′m infected with you, pull the plug already. Tell me before I go that you′re infected with me. I′m infected with you, pull the plug already. Tell me before I go that you′re infected with me.
I can′t remember if I ever took a minute to say That if it had to be now, I′m glad it had to be me. I can′t recuperate, I′m never going to leave here alive. Just help me through this Don′t let me die here.
But I′m almost out of breath from saying things that I′ll regret, that I′ll regret. My time is over I can′t do this alone. But I′m almost out of breath from saying things that I′ll regret, that I′ll regret. My time is over I can′t do this alone.
I′m infected with you, pull the plug already. Tell me before I go that you′re infected with me. I′m infected with you, pull the plug already. Tell me before I go that you′re infected with me.
I′m killing time just trying to find the words that fall so short of you. I′m losing sleep, I can′t compete, I′m giving up I can′t do this alone. (4x) NO!
And if you see me losing ground Don’t be afraid to lie I know the pain inside my heart can’t break the fear inside of yours And if you see me losing faith In what it means to die Don’t let me leave before I know what lies behind the stained glass doors
Save sorrow for the souls in doubt Bleed every care out
Chorus: Will you carry me down the aisle that final day With your tears and cold hands shaking from the weight When you lower me down beneath that sky of gray Let the rain fall down and wash away your pain
For every word we never spoke We have a tear to cry For every silence like a wall between a better you and I So if you see me losing sight Of all the death in life You’ll find the peace in every time I failed to see the death in mine
Let all the fear inside you drown Tear out the blade and lay it down Save sorrow for the souls in doubt Bleed every care out
(Chorus)
Oh, the blood is rushing out Oh, I’m better off without Oh, the walls are closing in Oh, sing for me again
(Chorus) (Rain down, oh rain down, no care for the flood)
