Tell me where’re you looking at, what are you standing up for
Our innocence died so long ago, is that what you were always looking for?
I can see the bonds that holding you down but not a single try to break free
We need to stop pretending and acknowledge the things that left unseen
Day after day we're wasting our time
missing every chance that is passing by
We’re standing on a crumbling floor ready to lose it all
You wanted a place to call home
something to make you feel whole again
Never wanted to be like them but now we've come to this
we embraced our apathy
We’re fading day by day
standing speechless, afraid of each other
Forsaken once again
Divided wandering to the edge
Maybe I’m not different but at least I won’t pretend I am
I will keep my mind clear just to see the end
I’ll stay pure, I’ll stay pure till the end, I'm not a face without an name
We’re fading day by day
standing speechless, afraid of each other
Forsaken once again
Divided wandering to the edge
We’ll say goodbye and we won’t even wonder why

I know that you don’t want to hear about this
and you're tired of listening something’s wrong
Please don't mind me I'm just passing through this lifeline
Just remember something that I left behind when I’m gone
I never wanted this, I tried to adapt
and I can't help wonder why
I never wanted this but it goes for so long
reaching out for something more
I'm thinking of these wasted times
I'm done and left with nothing, feels like a falling apart
We came, we saw and got the best of us
Reaching for the sky, I’ll be just fine
I want you to care like you listened before
Turn you back and walk away, another casualty of our time
Once unloved, forever broken
And I know that I said this will be the last time
That I tried to drag you down here with me
In the hopeless alley that's deep inside of my mind
On the sidelines I chose to reborn just to die again
I never wanted this but it goes for so long
reaching out for something more
I'm thinking of these wasted times
I'm done and left with nothing, feels like a falling apart
Now the rain is touching my face, I feel so relieved
but I don't want the sky to cry for me
shatter my insides, I'm at the end of my rope
and let me go

All I’m asking for is to be there for you but it feels that I lost my way
Why is that hard for me to stand up?
This is how it goes, failure on repeat
I’ll take the burden, I’ll be responsible even though it feels I left you to carry the weight
I know I’m not perfect, you can say that by all means but I have to
It doesn’t matter if I’m weak
So bear with me, I feel like I’ve failed you
Stay a little while, I feel like I’ve failed you again
And it hurts more than anything to see you sad time after time
I tried to succeed, the path to change is just hard
So bear with me, I feel like I’ve failed you
Stay a little while, I’ve failed you again
We fell apart again
We’ve fallen apart so many times, please be patient with me
Can you do this for me?
We are lost in a cycle of mistakes and regrets
We’re looking for answers and I’ll take the blame
I know that I fucked up but I need you to stay
It’s hard to admit it, still can’t find the way
Show me your guidance to make it up to you and make everything alright
Bear with me, can you do this for me?
Please don’t just let me be

Don't get so comfortable it's time to finally set things straight
You said it was rationality, I'll say you're dead behind the eyes
How does it feel now we're burying this once and for all
No one's paying attetion and I shouldn't waste my time
But I can still see the worst in your intentions, so fuck this I've had enough
always crying out for more, this is where you got it wrong
Higher self-esteem, ignorance at it's best, leaving an empty head
Is it that hard to see what happend back then and now it's too late
Still arrogant same as before, other opinions don't matter
still running your mouth and you turn your back but don't forget that
you know nothing about me so keep your mouth as your mind, shut
You gave me comfort so I'm cutting you off
still barely you can understand what went wrong
this is getting way off
I'm getting rid the familiar face of yours with the fake-ass smile on
Always crying out for more, this is where you got it wrong
Look into my eyes and tell me how it's like, are you feeling all alone?
You tried to hide your face then but it's over now
Stay away from me, get lost

Can you hear this sound? It's a cry out for completion
I'm tired of fighting over this
again and again and it seems that I'm going nowhere
still drowning in an endless grief
This place looks so familiar but I can't figure any way out
I keep running in circles as the downfall is closing by
reset, rewind, repeat, everyday feels the same
reset, rewind, repeat, what's the meaning of this?
I'm chasing the current just to feel alive
so tell me is there anything inside? I know there's more
I'm chasing the current just to feel alive
so tell me is there anything inside? I know there must be more
Another night in the same position, standing still at the edge of the shore
Such a pitiful act as I'm throwing myself into the flood
Can you see the misery? Put an end in this suffering
Does this feel like I'm giving up?
It's like going to places far away, feels like over and over again
When it feels that I can not hide
It's like I spaced out far way, feels like over and over again
Can you hear this sound? It’s my cry out for completion
How it ended up like this?
A hollow shell chasing a current, searching a purpose
So tell me, what’s left inside?

I'm sorry if you've been ever dissapointed in me
I promise I never meant to hurt you
and I'm sorry if I won't be the man you want me to be
but I still hope I'll make you proud
Can you hear me? When will I know?
Can you see me? Will I ever know?
Can you feel my soul is filled no more?
Can't you be here I can't stand you're gone
I miss the scent of your home, your pretty eyes full of hope
You were gone so quickly I was deeply sleeping
can't forget the feeling you were by my side
Can't forget the last time that I saw your bright smile
so just let there be love out of ashes for these thoughts are burning out
I wish I could take you home, like those summers full of love
but the sun is up no more
the warthm of you hands and all the stories you've told
now the summer turned to cold
And I'm so sorry if this is not enough but I'm running out of time
I saw you in my sleep last night, I told you everything I had
(Every moment I remember is forever lost in time)
keep them your mind until we meet again

Can't you see I'm barely holding on?
Why I never tried to feed in something more than black and white,
the trench of soul, before I'm lost in a daydream
I gave up everything to play my part in this, would it matter the effort?
struggling with existence and now the season's up to move
static, still hoping for a change
Seeking out what I've lost but broken thoughts are neverending
Burning out, still it shows that I'm locked
in this prison that I made for me
Can't you see I'm barely holding on?
Why I never tried to feed in something more than black and white,
the trench of soul, before I'm lost in a daydream
All these thoughts that can not seem to erase
and this feeling that it can not comprehend
I won't cave in into it, I've told myself and now I got lost in a daydream
When my world is falling apart I don't want you to spare me
kill all the lights of my life cause
What doesn’t kill me won’t make me any stronger
What doesn’t kill me will only make me suffer more
You can’t bend me I’m already broken
and I am not interested to carry the weight of the world
And all that they're telling me are just all the obvious things
I already know, breath before you choke
And all that I'm hiding, the discomfort inside of me
as always grows and tears before it shows
What if I'm wrong and I belong
I'll never know, my vision's blurred

Am I supposed to keep struggling but still captivated by the pain?
It's something I can't control, something unknown
as broken wishes falling to the ground
Everything's changing and I'm not sure what is going to happen next
something is just wrong with the path I've walked and the walls I've build
I said I'll find my way through the darkness and misery but now
the fortress is falling apart with empty words echoing
I wish that you could see through me, the absence of colors in my life
Now give me something, can you see the absence of colors in my life?
Am I supposed to keep struggling but still captivated by the pain?
It's something I can't control, something unknown
as broken wishes falling to the ground
Now give me something I'm longing for, I wouldn't matter being six feet underground
I lost a part of me when I was young and naive, now let nothing remain in the end
I was told that the light will always shine and there are better days ahead
What are the odds to still feel alive? Conscience's numb
I can't remember if there was a time that I felt whole
I can't pretend that I accept the fact that all the sanity is gone
I will shut my eyes to what I wished to avoid
this remedy that's only there to soothe
What is wrong with preaching pain when you know it's there?
This plague is in my blood, it's in my blood

Versus Life

Scratching the surface to feel something real, the tension is building inside
Make them listen, make them see for I can't take any longer
no one knows what is really wrong and no one will ever find out
they don't really want to know, they don't seem to care at all
take the broken pieces of mine and make a brand new picture
recreate the soul of a broken man, leave it all behind for someone else to know
I stare at the wall, writing all over the same words again
"Please let me out, please let me out"
I stare at the sky, there's nothing to see
I'm screaming again "please let me breath, please let me breath"
I never meant to let anyone down but nothing's going as planed
everything's constantly changing and moving like I never meant a thing
Under this blindfold made by scars I don't know how I can stay the same
so take the broken pieces of my life and put them together one last time
a brand new story and the epilogue said
kiss me goodnight and put a nail in the back of my head
