Lyrics

1. OBSESSION

obsession.
desire.
depression.
nothing is meant to be.
love never wanted me.


2. I LET GO

could you, maybe, stop this from happening?
I know it hurts but you don't have to walk away.
I don't know why I want to stop myself from feeling low.
I don't know why lies know my name and lies I show.
I don't know why I want to stop myself from feeling low.
I don't know why I even try.
I can't be that way when my life looks this grey so I let go.
I've got to leave it alone this time or I'll wallow in my mind.
I've got to leave it alone:
I can't be that way when my life looks this grey so I let go.
I don't understand why clouds sit on my head.
it looks like rain.
I feel shame.


3. CRUSHED

you could ease my pain.
you could bring the rain.
yet all these clouds have washed away so why does my life still seem grey.
you can't save me from yourself.
and I should put you in the grave.
these dead flowers aren't in bloom but still I picked them just for you.
you don't mean anything to me yes I say.
you can't save me from yourself.
why did you give up on me when I was young?
why did you give up on me from the moment I was born?
and I should put you in the grave.
you can't save me from yourself.
and I'm bleeding from you leaving.
you don't mean anything to me yes I say.


4. THIS TIME

can I make this madness go away?
again I wake at 3am, can't lose these creeps inside my head.
reality seems far away and all my dreams will slowly fade.
the sun breaks the silence that the night divides.
the moon might be the perfect place for me to hide.
I can't stop my mind.
this time, my mind.
can I make this madness go away?
my mind to fade has turned the page cause dead and gone is where I lay.
the enemy in black and flame.
within this hell is where I play.
the sun breaks the silence that the night divides.
the moon might be the perfect place for me to hide.
I can't stop my mind.
this time, my mind.
this time on my side, the moon is alive.
it's time to resign the devil in my mind.
as darkness takes me to the brink of devastation:
I can't stop my mind.
this time, my mind.
I know that I'm close to finding my salvation.


5. TOWER OF SNAKES

you told me no apologies but I'm sorry it couldn't cut the mustard and it's
absurd.
hey, you turned the light off, you gave me darkness.
you sucked the blood right out of life.
are you running away from me?
are you running away from you?
you showed me what I should see, but I'm still blind and I can't breathe.
you swallowed pride like someone died.
you chewed it up and spit it out but no one's to be found now.
are you running away from me?
are you running away from you?
hey, what are you running away from?
you told me what I should see, but I'm still blind and I can't breathe.
are you running away from me?
are you running away from you?


6. I SHOULD TELL YOU

I watched the falling rain splash upon your face.
I know those aren't your tears.
you know it's me and where I've been.
it's just circumstances.
don't let her down.
so I should tell you why it's so hard to tell you.
you know it's me and where I've been and the million words I'm thinking.
I burned my time today as I start to waste.
you were my one and only and now I don't know why.
you know it's me and where I've been.
it's just the circumstances.
don't let her down.
and I know what you're feeling tonight.
and I know for now you're mine.
I watched the falling rain splash upon your face.
I know those aren't your tears.
you know it's me and where I've been.
it's just the circumstances.
don't let her down


7. WAITING FOR THE HEAVENS

God help me save tomorrow from fear of darkest hour.
this world in pain, it's time to rise again.
this life is so called murder.
staring at angry horror.
don't want to live today when all I feel is pain.
and I pray that I would fall apart.
I know this world's the enemy.
you don't know what it's like and I don't think you even care.
you don't know what it's like and you've never ever even been there.
God help me save tomorrow from fear of darkest hour.
this world in pain, it's time to rise again.
my life is going under.
staring at angry horror.
don't want to live today when all I feel is pain.
and I pray that I would fall apart.
I know this world's the enemy.
you don't know what it's like and I don't think you even care.
you don't know what it's like and you've never ever even been there.
this life is so called murder.
staring at angry horror.
don't want to live today when all I feel is pain.
I know this world's the enemy.


8. LOST IN A DREAM

I've been sleeping here for day.
hope I die before my dreams drive me insane.
when you're not around I might let my guard down.
don't keep me waiting.
you can't understand my nightmares.
bad dreams are all that I can keep..
locking in a room where all my dreams come true.
scrape my mind off of the walls painted pretty blue.
collective thoughts fill my brain, but every night it's just the same.
don't keep me waiting.
you can't understand my nightmares.
bad dreams are all that I can keep.
you can't understand my nightmares.
don't you close your eyes to see.
(blindness is overwhelming.)


9. BLEED BY YOURSELF

I haven't met you lately.
I know it's been so long.
I haven't seen you lately, I know that you've done wrong.
think time has made you crazy.
your mind is oh so gone.
think time has more than raised me.
don't need you anymore.
shooting you inspiration.
bullets don't feel so good.
turning to desperation.
I always knew you would.
think time has made you crazy.
your mind is oh so gone.
think time has more than raised me.
don't need you anymore.
this is where you stand.
this is where you pray.
this is where you sit and this is where you lay.
I left you there to bleed by yourself.
you left me here to die alone.
think time has made you crazy.
your mind is oh so gone.
think time has more than raised me.
don't need you anymore.


10. A LONG WAY HOME

can someone save me from this hell I've made?
can someone save me before it's too:
late nights have driven me insane.
from you, I feel so far away.
I'm all alone now in this hell I've made.
I'm all alone now.
I think it's too:
late nights have driven me insane.
from you I feel so far away.
can you tear me away from this I said:
can you tear me away .
can someone save me from this hell I've made.
can someone save me before it's too:
late nights have driven me insane.
from you I feel so far away.


11. SAID AND DONE

Close the book and turn the page.
exit players from the stage.
count the moons and stars but please stop fighting wars with me.
After all is said and done you still try.
after all is said and done you're not mine.
turn your back on all hope.
this sheep has shed his winter coat.
you send your notes and ranting.
this pigeon has hard times landing.
after all is said and done you still try.
after all is said and done you're not mine.
