lyrics

Wasting away my life in days, I swear and sit in patience
I prayed for God's whole might to smother me from where I stay
I break my chains and searched to do the right thing, overlord
I'm begging mercy on this stricken ground from where I lay
Why do I have to keep falling down just to start again?
Your pain is much accepted, you can have all say
I'm frantic, playing with the thought of you lay down by my side
With innards spilled from both ends, your murder spares my day

We came all this way just to fight
All my nightmares started to befriend me
And now I’m always giving in

Why do you bug me with your tenderness?
That's why I keep you all smothered up inside my laundry room, you call my bluff
Forgive me, I haven't used your face in a day
I want to watch you take this knife to your neck out of love
I’ve never felt so deprived from giving misery to you
Why do you keep me from living like this, why so tough?
We’ll never ever see the sun again, watch you break the chains
I feel your motions from a mile away, broken cuffs

We came all this way just to dance
All my nightmares started to befriend me
And they just tread on my innocence

Counting my life in days, I stay here dreading about her
My broken wish fuels the anarchy from here on out
I don’t know what I want to do with my life anymore
I cared about the way she walked, her company profound
Who would’ve done such a thing, I’m not a horrible crime?
The sirens blaring from a block away, no escape
I’ve wasted all my life, was all my pleasure worth it?
I wallow deep inside this hollow cave, here’s where I lay

We came all this way just to die
All of my daydreams started to depress me
As the Lord shepherds all my hate
