Obsession

obsession.
desire.
depression.
nothing is meant to be.
love never wanted me.




I Let Go

Could you, maybe, stop this from happening?
I know it hurts but you don't have to walk away

Chorus:
I don't know why I want to stop myself from feeling low
I don't know why lies know my name and lies I show
I don't know why I want to stop myself from feeling low
I don't know why
I don't know why I even try

I can't be that way when my life looks this grey so I let go, I let go

(Chorus)

I can't be that way when my life looks this grey so I let go, I let go X2

I've got to leave it alone this time or I'll wallow in my mind X2

I've got to leave it alone X4

I can't be that way when my life looks this grey so I let go, I let go
I don't understand why clouds sit on my head
It looks like rain
I feel shame

I can't be that way when my life looks this grey so I let go, I let go
I don't understand why clouds sit on my head
It looks like rain
I feel shame




Crushed

You could ease my pain
You could bring the rain
Yet all these clouds have washed away so why does my life still seem grey
You can't save me from yourself
And I should put you in the grave
These dead flowers aren't in bloom but still I picked them just for you
You don't mean anything to me yes I say
You can't save me from yourself
Why did you give up on me when I was young?
Why did you give up on my from the moment I was born?
And I should put you in the grave
You can't save me from yourself
And I'm bleeding from you leaving
You don't mean anything to me yes I say




This Time

Can I make this madness go away?
Again I wake at 3am, can't lose these creeps inside my head
Reality seems far away and all my dreams will slowly fade
The sun breaks the silence that the night divides
The moon might be the perfect place for me to hide
I can't stop my mind
This time, my mind
Can I make this madness go away?
My mind to fade has turned the page
cause dead and gone is where I lay
The enemy in black and flame
Within this hell is where I play
The sun breaks the silence that the night divides
The moon might be the perfect place for me to hide
I can't stop my mind
This time, my mind
I can't stop my mind
This time, my mind
This time on my side, the moon is alive
It's time to resign the devil in my mind
As darkness takes me to the brink of devastation
I can't stop my mind.
This time, my mind
I know that I'm close to finding my salvation




Tower Of Snakes

You told me no apologies
but I'm sorry it couldn't cut the mustard and it's absurd
Hey, you turned the light off
You gave me darkness
You sucked the blood right out of life
Are you running away from me?
Are you running away from you?
You showed me what I should see
but I'm still blind and I can't breathe
You swallowed pride like someone died
You chewed it up and spit it out
but no one's to be found now
Are you running away from me?
Are you running away from you?
Hey, what are you running away from?
You told me what I should see
but I'm still blind and I can't breathe
Are you running away from me?
Are you running away from you?




I Should Tell You

I watched the falling rain splash upon your face
I know those aren't your tears
You know it's me and where I've been
It's just the circumstances
Don't let her down
So I should tell you why it's so hard to tell you
You know it's me and where I've been
and the million words I'm thinking
I burned my time today as I start to waste
You were my one and only and now I don't know why
You know it's me and where I've been
It's just the circumstances
Don't let her down
And I know what you're feeling tonight
And I know soon everything will be fine
And I know what you're feeling tonight
And I know for now you're mine
I watched the falling rain splash upon your face
I know those aren't your tears
You know it's me and where I've been
It's just the circumstances
Don't let her down




Waiting For The Heavens

God help me save tomorrow
From fear of darkest hour
This world
In pain
It's time to rise again

This life is so called murder
Staring in angry horror
Don't want to live today
When all I feel is pain

And I pray
That I would fall apart
(I know this world's the enemy!)

You don't know what it's like
And I don't
Think you even care
(I know this world's the enemy!)
You don't know what it's like
And you've never
Ever even been there
(I know this world's the enemy!)

God help me save tomorrow
From fear of darkest hour
This world
In pain
It's time to rise again

My life is going under
Staring in angry horror
Don't want to live today
When all I feel is pain

And I pray
That I would fall apart
(I know this world's the enemy!)

You don't know what it's like
And I don't
Think you even care
(I know this world's the enemy!)
You don't know what it's like
And you've never
Ever even been there
(I know this world's the enemy!)

This life is so called murder
Staring in angry horror
Don't want to live today when all I feel is pain

I know this world's the enemy!
I know this world's the enemy!




Lost In A Dream

I've been sleeping here for days
Hope I die before my dreams drive me insane
When you're not around I might let my guard down
Don't keep me waiting

You can't understand my nightmares
Bad dreams are all that I can keep

Locked in a room where all my dreams come true
Scrape my mind off the walls painted pretty blue
Collective thoughts fill my brain
but every night it's just the same
Don't keep me waiting

You can't understand my nightmares
Bad dreams are all that I can keep
You can't understand my nightmares
Don't you close your eyes to see
(Blindness is overwhelming)

You can't understand my nightmares
Bad dreams are all that I can keep
You can't understand my nightmares
Don't you close your eyes to see
(Blindness is overwhelming)




Bleed By Yourself

I haven't met you lately
I know it's been so long
I haven't seen you lately
I know what you've done wrong
Think time has made you crazy
Your mind is oh so gone
Think time has more than raised me
Don't need you anymore
Shooting your inspiration
Bullets don't feel so good
Turning to desperation
I always knew you would
Think time has made you crazy
Your mind is oh so gone
Think time has more than raised me
Don't need you anymore
This is where you stand
This is where you pray
This is where you sit and this is where you lay
I left you there to bleed by yourself
You left me here to die alone
Think time has made you crazy
Your mind is oh so gone
Think time has more than raised me
Don't need you anymore




A Long Way Home

Can someone save me from this hell I've made?
Can someone save me before it's too...
Late nights have driven me insane
From you, I feel so far away
I'm all alone now in this hell I've made
I'm all alone now
I think it's too...late nights have driven me insane
From you I feel so far away
Can you tear me away from this I said...
can you tear me away
Can someone save me from this hell I've made
Can someone save me before it's too...
late nights have driven me insane
From you I feel so far away




Said And Done

Close the book and turn the page
Exit players from the stage
Count the moons and the stars
but please stop fighting wars with me
After all is said and done you still try
After all is said and done you're not mine
Turn your back on all hope
This sheep has shed his winter coat
You send your notes and rantings
This pigeon has hard times landing
After all is said and done you still try
After all is said and done you're not mine
