I’ve bled myself dry

Trying to purge this hate within

I’ve sentenced myself

To a prison in my skin

-

And so it goes as my time erodes

-

It’s never coming back

What i have lost has been lost forever

A slow fade to black

Joy is a dream that I can’t remember

The scales must be satisfied

Because all the weight is on my side

-

I climb on heads just to get a breath

Stuck inside this burning wreck

-

Nothing endures but the ache of time

Passing through like a sharpened knife

For me to live my soul must die

Lose my self just to stay alive

Nothing endures but the ache of time

Passing through like a sharpened knife

The light inside is all but gone

The war will go on and on

-

The light inside is all but gone

The war will go on and on

The light inside is all but gone

Life will go on and on
