I've done it again
and can't remember how
The story went again
It always ends like this
I swore last time was the last
But maybe I'll do it
I'll write it in
One more time
I'm losing my mind
I'll rip the pages
And bury beneath
I'll cut down the lies
gritting through the teeth
Now see what I've become
A saint bathed in the blood
of the innocent ones
It always ends like this
I swore last time was the last
But maybe I'll do it
I'll write it in one more time
Looking down at myself
Wanting (NO) Needing to go back
Back to the way things were
Because it can't end like
This!
Condemnation and Control
the words of the madman
will take hold
Self-destruction is binding me,
I can not control
what I see
The ink is running away from me
Everytime I escape
I put myself further in the shoes of the madman I've
become
Now see what I've become
A saint bathed in the blood of the innocent ones
Until my time is over
I will fight to realize
that the ink had run over
and now my words are my disguise
Oh my disguise (Oh no)
I can't take it back (Oh no)
I just never learned
Discarded like the rest
Another page
(Another page to burn)
What have I done now
They've been breaking my mind
I'm completely dead inside
I can't move
I can't scream
Trapped within my own pages
Fighting for the life I used to know
This is it
The last time
My final breath
They'll remember me
Etched in the pages
With stains of ash
Blood between the lines
Contorted memories
They'll remember me
Lost and alone now
I'm sitting with
the shadow that's
trapped within my hell
