Touching pen to paper, each time I feel a little closer to the end.
Between the lines a thousand grains of sand lost to the hourglass.
Inside every page, a time I wish I could relive.
Oh how I wish I could relive this all again! (Come back to me!)

See the look that you gave me,

Dressed in wounds; I walk the streets alone
and this was home; now just a ghost town.
and I remember how this place used to be when I was young.
now the crossfire of street lights leads me nowhere.
chasing her image in the night. chasing; searching for you.
and I don't know h

When you look into the man in front of you
Do we see the same?
'Cause you said I was strong, you said I was brave
If only I could feel the same
'Cause I feel weaker everyday
Sick with guilt and constant worry
That I've abandoned you to chase these dreams
That may neve

Closed eyes for the last time;
And i was sure i was ready for this.
I was so ready for this, but i was wrong.

Closed eyes for the last time.
And i've seen the best of you
And i've seen the worst of you,
Yet when i wake to find blood in your eyes it brings me to my knees

No sleep ‘til sunrise tonight
I’ll be out on the town forgetting all about it
Forgetting everything
Glass half empty or glass half full
You’ve got nothing to lose when you’ve lost it all
So here’s to nothing, bottoms up let’s all get fucked
'Cause I've got nothing left to

So I came back, one last time
And it was like fate stared me in the eye and told me
It’s your turn to cross that line
And all the frustration died
And inside I only found the heartache was true
And from this we cannot run
I cannot run, I can’t run, I can’t run
I canno

I can’t turn a blind eye to the things I have seen
A heartless empire built on power and greed
Money and religion all parts of the same machine
Oh there’s a difference between the truth and what we’re led to believe
I beg of you - look further and see
The storm is getting clo

I watched the sunset behind burning buildings
Blue roses apon her deathbed
I watched the garden we lay in wither and die
I felt the hour hand pulling the boy out of me
Yet still he wonders: Angel, who pulled the wings from your back?

The messenger comes, holds me and whispe

Pale eyes and a figure brushed in white, blue Iris
In a distant crowd we remain, motionless
And this world won’t change for us
Maybe I was just young, maybe I was just a fool

only through red eyes can i look at you now.
time has shown me your true face;
and the truth brings rupture.
now i can see all the lies that fall from your mouth.
and i cant help but feel pity for you, such the actor, such the actor.
i gave you the second but i won't give you

They say in this city you'll never walk alone
A thousand miles away I still hear her call
Come back, come back to me and breathe slow again
A thousand miles away I still hear her call

Wherever we go she waits for us
To come back and fill the spaces
Slip into the shapes

This is my right, this is my time tonight
Into the night I will ride
One life, one chance to prove
Decide, no more sacrifice

I will live my life this way, forever
Don’t look away from me ‘cause I have the answer
Open your eyes, see these walls you’ve built?
They are

I awake to the weight of regret leaning on me
And there's no escaping it this time
There's nowhere to run and hide
There's nowhere to run
There's nowhere to hide
This battle's on the inside

Its so fucked up
'Cause my reflection he looks at me, tells me I'm not the m

Framed inside the reflection of the mirror,
I saw a perfect picture.
The hands won't wait for you to save this,
And I cannot go on pretending you feel the same.

I am done tracing circles, repeating the past.
This is the only way out.
Trust me, this is the only way out.<

And so on goes the battle - down on the rails;
heading south to find my way out.
This is how I wanted this - no one involved;
this time its me against myself against the world.

Now i'm not searching for answers, i'm not running away.
I'm just taking my time to let the dust

Its hard to sleep with skeletons under your bed.
This was by my hands, the dagger in your back.
This feeling of regret.
These words so hard to speak,
These words I should have said a long time ago.

Every day I wish I had done this differently,
(I'd take it back given th

When i returned i came to find the words i had once inscribed had now faded.
Barely readable now where the numbers - sixteen, three, zero, eight.
Then with key in hand i carved a new line.

The setting sun hits home the truth.
Oh the setting sun...

And all these images bur
