Emptiness Devours

Sometimes I'm crying out for help
Tell me where did I go wrong
Took a wrong turn at the wrong time
I hope this won't take too long
There are things I'm haunting
Just a few steps away
My heart's heavy – my mind's in despair
In this hall of dismay

Every day just like the other
We are like ants standing in line
Look at myself it makes me bother
I'm thinking everything's just fine
Day to day from nine to five
I can't believe that it's my fate – my fate
There has to be more to this life
I'll try to correct my mistake

I am chained – they try to bring me down
I've been pushed too far
I am chained – they try to bring me down
I've been pushed too far

I can feel the shifting time
Don't know if I'm prepared to face the day
A devastation in my mind
My dark dreams a have to push away from me
Have to try and find a way
A way to make right what went wrong
Right now I will begin again
Watch me come out of this so strong

I am chained – they try to bring me down
I've been pushed too far
I am chained – they try to bring me down
I've been pushed too far

Like a mouse in a maze – searching for new ways
I am counting the hours – and emptiness devours

Everything just looks the same
Like running around in circles
We're like drones working for the queen
Caught in a landslide
The path is in disguise
We all looking for a new surprise
I know I've been this way before
Trying to find the open door

So I start to grow my ambitions high
But again I'm put back in the cage
No time for dreams I'm living a lie
Deep inside myself I feel the rage
I try to keep the balance right
Don't want to surrender my dreams
