When times seem tough When everything you built collapses around you I know it’s easy to fall For I fell too Yet never forget that hope Can be found in the most forsaken places Never forget who you are And get back up I will be right here by your side

Enlighten me Give me one reason to care about your twisted thoughts It's not my problem and never will be if you need to feed on hatred to feel alive I won't even slow down I'll leave you bogged down in your inner rot I said it before and I’ll say it again I’ll keep on walking and you will not You really thought you had some kind of power over how I should live my life It's pathetic There's nothing you could do that would change my mind I'll keep walking forward And if you think that I'm lying then you're goddamn wrong I know exactly what I must do And if you think that I can't go on then you're wrong You think I don't have what it takes? Well watch me I'm finally complete and I won't let go you will never you will never take it away from me I doubt that you can understand What it means to me what it feels to be unchained I doubt you can Now I know what it feels like To be on the righteous track Now I know what it feels like To take all that was mine back Now I know what it feels like To be on the righteous track Now I know what it feels like To take it all back I found a place where you don’t belong Somewhere you cannot come along A special place where you don’t belong I’m never coming back And if you think that I'm lying then you're goddamn wrong I know exactly what I must do And if you think that I can't go on then you're wrong I know I’ve got what it takes Whoo! I'm finally complete and I won't let go you will never you will never take it away from me (Away from me) I'm finally complete and I won't let go you will never you will never take it away from me I broke down The walls surrounding me (I broke down) And I woke up From my thousand years sleep And I’ll never close my eyes again I know there were times I’ve been so lost and confused I turned to you in despair and begged for help I put my whole trust in you, for I thought that maybe One day we could walk alongside on the same path And though countless times you put me down I would always get back up with a fading smile But these times are over and they’re never coming back I’m no longer a tool you can use as you please Since I realized I’ve got more power than you At last I’m no longer wasting my time Since I have moved on and left you behind At last I’m no longer wasting my time This freedom I longed for is finally mine At last I’m no longer wasting my time (Wasting my time) Since I have moved on and left you behind (Left you behind) At last I’m no longer wasting my time (Wasting my time) This freedom I longed for is finally mine At last I’m no longer wasting my time Since I have moved on and left you behind At last I’m no longer wasting my time Since I have moved on and left you behind

This is only the start We’ve been walking For thousands of miles And through despair and misfortune We have always managed to keep our heads Above the surface To keep walking forward And never look back I can’t believe How far we have managed to come Every time we fall we shall rise stronger Better than anything you’ve seen before Yet everything has a price and this power Is no exception, and the payment has to be done Using the strength of the world around us Till every leaf of every of every tree has fallen serving our cause Till all that nature made Has no room left to breathe Till we have killed this world Just so we can live Fuck you I want no part of this Yet my life itself is an act of selfishness (Yeah) So fuck you (Fuck you) Stop telling me this Like I could do something to save this place I’m a speck of dust lost in space How can I change anything? I did not choose to live like this I did not choose to be I should be thankful for I’ve been Walking (Walking) For thousands of miles (Thousands of miles) And through despair and misfortune I’ve always managed to keep my head Above the surface I’ll keep walking forward And bless each step I’ll take I feel each drop of rain on my face I feel the wind and its cold embrace I feel as I’m a part of this place I must make things right before I lose it all For the least I can do Is rejoice for the luck I have For the least I can do Is be thankful for all that I have Yes all that I have And I declare That no matter how weak I am I can change it all I might be a speck of dust lost in space Yet I change everything Though I did not choose to live like this I choose who I want to be And though I know I’m not the cause Of the ongoing destruction of our world I sure know what I want to do And I don’t give a fuck about what any of you Might say You can scream all you want I can’t hear you over the sound of the universe Yes argue all you want I don’t give a fuck about what any of you Might say You can scream all you want I can’t hear you over the sound of the universe Yes argue all you want Our lives have a price and I won’t pay for yours

You are the one That keeps my soul from giving in That keeps away the suffering The only one I’d trust with my life Fighting by my side this endless strife You brought color into my life so I could see So I could break free from this dull reality And I’ll be forever thankful for all you did for me You are the light that shines in the darkness where I used to be You tore apart the pain from the inside And built a path so I could walk With you by my side With you by my side Yeah Through the valley of the shadow of death I walk with no fear For I know that I’ll never regret the steps of yesteryear I lived in the past, now my future’s clear Tear it away with your love ever so sincere I’ve been insane Turned crazy by futile thoughts My mind was weak and my body rot And you cured everything with a smile You made it all so much worthwhile You made me feel alive and complete Oh please never leave Please stay here with Me Just the thought of losing you makes me die I’ll never let you go (I’ll never let you go) I will always try As hard as I can to vanquish time So we could live forever you and I With no sorrow To keep holding you tight Against me forever Yeah forever You are the one I’ve been chasing after all my life That turned all my wrongs into rights That erased all my fears and doubts That I just cannot live without And though I’m fearless now about what the future might hold for us I cannot bear the thought of losing you So please stay here with Me Just the thought of losing you makes me die I’ll never let you go (I’ll never let you go) I will always try As hard as I can to vanquish time So we could live forever you and I With no sorrow To keep holding you tight Against me forever I’m so scared of losing it all

I'ven been picking up diamonds on a deserted island Saving them all for when you'd rescue me I wanted to scream, yet I remained silent Dwelling on these memories still makes me bleed Thus I quietly sit on the edge of my life Waiting for a sign which will never come I pretend I'm fine, yet I'm dead inside I keep hearing your voice and it's driving me numb I can't find the way out without you by my side I can't fight these demons without you I try to forget but my rotten mind Won't let me move on and let me start anew I can't find the way out without you by my side I can't fight these demons without you I try to forget but my rotten mind Won't let me start anew, Won't let me start anew I am one step closer to the nothingness I am one step closer to the nothingness I am one step closer to the nothingness I am one step closer to the nothingness I am one step closer to the nothingness I am one step closer I'm fading away From reality I am one step closer to the nothingness I am one step closer I'm fading away From reality I've build my shelter in self destruction It's like my life repeats in slow motion always rewinding the moment you left me condamning me to live as we used to be I can't find the strenght to pretend I'm okay I tried to before, but I tried in vain How am I supposed to make it through the day? Just wanna close my eyes and never open them again I stand there pretending everything's fine But I am just dead behind these eyes Those inner fears I tried to bury Are turning me into something pale and weary I've been set upon by these invisible monsters tearing me appart, constantly tearing me appart Until there's nothing left of me, waiting for you to come back and save me But you never will, no you never will

This means the end Close the curtains, turn off the lights Since the ups and downs, the wrongs and rights The laughs and tears, the hopes and fears My whole life has forever left the stage And forget all about me For I'm no longer who I used to be I'm an hollow shell, a mere reflection of my former self Don't turn back and lock me in Because I'd rather stay within these empty walls Than walk these crowded streets alone Roads all paved with good intentions A hunting-ground for helping hands My soul will never be for sale Let the walls start closing in Let me feel their paper skin This place is nothing and everything Just let me drown in its Soothingly cold embrace And be no one once again Yeah Close my eyes, hold my breath This feeling's all that's left Allow me to die with it Hold it tight against me I will never see, I will never see The stars again, I will always be Waiting in vain, in vain Every story must come to an end And when the needles stopped moving With their final breath still pounding in my head Then I saw, As reality withered away The cracks I foolishly ever disregarded And I stared and I stared, stared deeply into the eyes of the world In search for an answer, In search for a reason In search for someone or something that just could help me understand With this voice in my head just screaming and shouting and yelling "this can't be the end" "This is not how it ends, this can't be how it ends, please don't let go, please don't let go of my hand" But it went silent Everything went silent and terribly cold And I saw a black ocean get poured between us I was frozen in place feeling your grip slowly fade away Tell me what could have I done Tell me what can I do I'm loosing my grip too Just tell me where you go and I swear I will come and get you out of there I've been talking to myself Since all the lights went off I've been talking to death itself And I've begged on my knees, I've buried all of my pride, I've buried what was left of my faith Now I quietly sit in darkness watching my stillborn life unravel before me You're no longer in it, you're no longer in it and all I want to do is rip off my chest Nothing remains But silence You're not here with me How can I move forward, how can I face the world if I can't even face myself (You're not here with me) The walls are closing in, and I'm glad oh so glad, I will smile at last when I will greet Death (You're not here with me) Is this what you wanted? Is this what you had planned all along for us both? (You're not here with me) Then I gladly accept my fate and close my eyes one last time Please let it be the end Let me go in silence Please let it be the end Let me go in silence

The night is cold Drained from all senses Bringing its share of doubts And introspections A blunt blade Ripping through the light A Hollow tail With no end in sight I can't feel anything I can't feel anything anymore My conscience is fading What the hell am I still standing for I'm not alive nor dead I'm just a numbing pain A monochromatic reflection Of my decisions form my chains Am I still sane? I can't tell anymore I've been shining so bright And burned twice as fast I'm a dying light in a forsaken lantern This is the end of my fight I cannot be saved This is the end of my fight I cannot be saved And let my soul sink in this heartless night Rejoice I am near my end Rejoice I am near my end Can't you tell, it's already over Rejoice I embrace my end Don't feel sad for me my friend Rejoice I embrace my end You can't change my past or my pain amend This is not your fault This is just my fate I've put my faith in paths that led me nowhere And I'm tired of walking on my own I've got no more reason left Nothing left to carry on I just need to be left alone I'm exhausted of your lies I fail to see why you even try I'm not worth any of your smiles Why won't you let me die There is nothing here for you and there's never been How can you be so kind after all you've seen After all I put you through you're still by my side Does it mean I matter, all the tears I've cried Seem to vanish as you lift me up I am still alive, I am still breathing I won't fall, I'll stand-up again For in each curse lies a blessing
