Together we made it We made it even though we had our backs up against the wall There's something inside me that pulls beneath the surface Consuming, confusing This lack of self control I fear is never ending Controlling I can't seem To find myself again My walls are closing in (Without a sense of confidence, I'm convinced that there's just too much pressure to take) I've felt this way before So insecure Crawling in my skin These wounds, they will not heal Fear is how I fall Confusing what is real Take me down to the river bend Take me down to the fighting end Wash the poison from off my skin Show me how to be whole again Fly me up on a silver wing Past the black where the sirens sing Warm me up in a nova's glow And drop me down to the dream below And you were there at the turn Caught in the burning glow And I was there at the turn Waiting to let you know Crawling in my skin These wounds, they will not heal Fear is how I fall Confusing what is real But I know, yeah I know, yeah I know I'm just talking to myself Talking to myself Confusing what is real Yeah I know, yeah I know, yeah I know I'm just talking to myself So when you fall, I'll take my turn And fan the flames as your blazes burn We can't wait to burn it to the ground When you fall, I'll take my turn And fan the flames as your blazes burn We can't wait to burn it to the ground Yeah, thank you, thank you, thank you, far too kind (oh, uh yeah uh yeah) Now what the hell are you waitin' for? After me, there shall be no more So for one last time, make some noise (So let mercy come) Time is a valuable thing So let mercy come Watch it fly by as a pendulum swings And wash away (Bring that chorus in) The nights go on Waiting dor a light that never comes I chase the Sun Waiting for a light that never comes What I've done I'll face myself To cross out what I've become Erase myself And let go of what I've done And I told them, nah, you don't know me Lightning above and a fire below me You cannot catch me, cannot hold me You cannot stop, much less control me When it rains, it pours When the floodgates open, brace your shores That pressure don't care, it breaks your doors Say it's all you can take, better take some more (I'm tired to being what you want me to be Feeling so faithless, lost under the surface) I don't know what you're expecting of me Put under the pressure of walking in your shoes (Caught in the undertow, just caught in the undertow) Every second I wast is more than I can take So give me reason To prove me wrong (In the end it doesn't even matter) Let the floods cross The distance in your eyes (In the end it doesn't even matter) What I've done (I'm tired of being what you me to be) What I've done (I'm tired of being what you me to be) Let go of what I've done (I am) (I am) Yeah, here we go for the hundredth time Hand grenade pins in every line Throw 'em up and let something shine Going out of my fucking mind (I am) Filthy mouth, no excuse Find a new place to hang this noose String me up from atop these roofs Knot it tight so I won't get loose (I am) I'ts like a face that I hold inside A face that awakes when I close my eyes A face that watches every time I lie A face that laughs everytime I fall (I am) Someone pour it in So I know that when it's time to sink or swim Say your prayers and stomp it out Right underneath my skin I bleed it out Digging deeper just to throw it away I bleed it out Digging deeper just to throw it away I bleed it out Digging deeper just to throw it away Just to throw it away, just to throw it away I bleed it out I've opened up theses scars I'll make you face this I've pulled myself so far I'll make you face My skin It's like I'm paranoid lookin' over my back It's like a whirlwind inside of my head It's like I can't stop what I'm hearing within It's like the face inside is right beneath my skin No, hear me out now You're gonna listen to me, like it or not Right now, hear me out now You're gonna listen to me, like it or not Right now The face inside is right beneath your skin God bless us everyone I feel the light betray me The face inside is right beneath your skin God bless us everyone I feel the light betray me God save us everyone Will we burn inside the fires of a thousand suns For the sins of our hand The sins of our tongue The sins of our father The sins of our young? No! Are you lost in your lies? Do you tell yourself I don't realize Your crusade's a disguise Replaced freedom with fear, you trade money for lives I'm aware of what you've done No, no more sorrow I've paid for your mistakes Your time is borrowed Your has come to be replaced (No!) no, no more sorrow I've paid for your mistakes (No!) your time is borrowed Your time has come to be re- Lift me up Let me go Lift me up Let me go Yeah, yo You were that foundation Never gonna be another one, no I followed, so taken So conditioned, I could never let go Blindly forgetting if I'm in the mix You won't find an equivalent I've been here killing it Longer than you've been alive, you idiot And it makes you so mad Somebody else could be stepping in front of you Check the rep, yep, you know mine well Forget the rest let them know my hell And you can't understand the fact That it's over and done Let the rest be the tale they tell That I was there, saying (Lift me up Let me go) In these promisses broken, deep below Each word gets lost in the echo So one last lie I can see through This time I finally let you Go Go Go Good goodbye Go Go Go Good goodbye Good goodbye Good goodbye Good goodbye So say goodbye and hit the road Pack it up and disappear You better have some place to go 'Cause you can't come back around here Good goodbye Good goodbye (Oh) Until it's gone (Oh) Until it's gone Until it's gone, oh Until it's gone, oh Until it's gone I close both locks below the window I close both blinds and turn away Sometimes solutions aren't so simple Sometimes goodbye's the only way, ah-ah And the Sun will set for you The Sun will set for you And the shadow of the day Will embrace the world in gray And the Sun will set for you When you were standing in the wake of devastation When you were waiting on the edge of the unknown And with the cataclysm raining down, insides crying: Save me now You were there, impossibly alone Do you feel cold and lost in desperation? You build up hope, but failure's all you've known Remember all the sadness and frustration And let it go Let it go Do you feel cold and lost in desperation? You build up hope, but failure's all you've known (And the shadow of the day will embrace the world in gray and the Sun will set for you) Remember all the sadness and frustration And let it go I'm swimming in the smoke Of bridges I have burned So don't apologize I'm losing what I don't deserve The blame is mine alone For bridges I have burned So don't apologize I'm losing what I don't deserve What I don't deserve I used the dead wood to make the fire rise The blood of innocence burning in the skies I'm about to break (You guilty, you guilty, you guilty) You guilty all the same Guilty all the same Break Wake in a sweat again Another day's been laid to waste In my disgrace Stuck in my head again Feels like I'll never leave this place There's no escape I don't want to be the one The battles always choose 'Cause inside I realize That I'm the one confused I given up I'm sick of feeling Is there nothing you can say? Take this all away I'm suffocating So I'm breaking the habit tonight Tell me what the f*** is wrong with me I'll paint it on the walls I'm about to break 'Cause I'm the one at fault I'm about to break I'll never fight again I'm about to break And this is how it ends I don't know what's worth fighting for or why I have to scream But now I have some clarity to show you what I mean We said it was forever But then it slipped away Standing at the end of The final masquerade (Oh-oh-oh oh-oh-oh) I'm breaking the habit Standing at the end of The final masquerade Final masquerade I'm breaking the habit tonight Forfeit the game before somebody else Takes you out of the frame, and puts your name to shame Cover up your face, you can't run the race The pace is too fast, you just won't last Shut up when I'm talking to you Shut up Yeah, yo I don't like my mind right now Why is everything so heavy? I don't like my mind right now Why is everything so heavy? Waiting for the end to come Wishing I had strength to stand This is not what I had planned It's out of my control I dreamed I was missing You were so scared But no one would listen Cause no one else cared After my dreaming I woke with this fear What am I leaving When I'm done here? (I was confused) And I drive myself crazy Thinking everything's about me (Inside of me) Yeah, I drive myself crazy 'Cause I can't escape the gravity I keep dragging around what's bringing me down If I just let go, I'd be set free Holding on To what I haven't got I wanna heal, I wanna feel what I thought was never real I wanna let go of the pain I've felt so long (Erase all the pain till it's gone) I wanna heal, I wanna feel like I'm close to something real I wanna find something I've wanted all along Somewhere I belong And you held it all But you were careless To let it fall And you held it all And I was by your side Powerless I know I'm not the center of the universe But you keep spinning 'round me just the same I know I'm not the center of the universe But you keep spinning 'round me just the same And I drive myself crazy Thinking everything's about me And I drive myself crazy Thinking everything's about me When my time comes Forget the wrong that I've done Help me leave behind some reasons to be missed And don't resent me And when you're feeling empty Keep me in your memory Leave out all the rest Leave out all the rest Forgetting All the hurt inside you've learned to hide so well Pretending Someone else can come and save me from myself I can't be who you are I can't be who you are Who cares if one more light goes out? In the sky of a million stars It flickers, flickers Who cares if one more light goes out? Well I do I do
