Fatal Frame

You painted me a picture of who to be
But the canvas has not captured a resemblance of me
I spill my blood to give the canvas color
Why spill my blood when the portrait is of another?

I cling to breath to stay alive
A dance with death, with hope to survive
I'm buried, you choose not to see
Lost in your expectations, I'm lost
I lost me
I lost me

Will I be another soul who none could save?
Buried under your delusion
I'm lost, lost to the grave
Buried under your delusion
I'm lost to the grave
Buried so I

Buried so I cling to breath to stay alive
A dance with death, with hope to survive
I'm buried, you choose not to see
Lost in your expectations, I'm lost
I lost me

Pray for strength to become whole
And find my shattered soul
Will I return from the brink?
Is this where I swim or sink?
One final try to break away
Will I live to see another day?
I'll live to see another day

I cling to breath to stay alive
A dance with death, with hope to survive
I'm buried, you choose not to see
Lost in your expectations
I'm lost, but I can't lose me
I cling to breath, I dance with death
I'm lost, but I can't lose me

I'm lost, but I can't lose me
