Dying to Live

When the ones you love become distant memories, breathe in breathe out,
I'll keep my head up high, and remember as time passes by.
We’ll carry on without you;
the legacy you left behind
We’ll carry on without you;
the legacy you left behind
(We'll see this through) for every moment you've missed
(I’ll live for you) my mind is slipping away
(it's swallowing me alive) I can't promise I'll see you again
(I’ll remember you) you left behind a world in pain
We took for granted that you protected us from our demons
We never realized you couldn’t fight your own
Now reality sets in, we hear your cries
The weight of the world has pushed me in too deep
At the edge of the cliff, I can see the summits
Tried opening my mouth, my lips are frozen shut
Our memories will live forever
We'll see this through, for every moment you've missed
I'll live for you, my mind is slipping away
it's swallowing me Alive, I can't promise I'll see you again
I'll remember you, you left behind a world in pain
You tried to give us warning, but everyone ignored you.
You told us everything loud and clear
but nobody was listening.

It was your air that thought me how to breathe
Your fires showed me what to think
this earth helped me question my beliefs
but I thank the water, [for] reminding me that it all means nothing.
I’m sick of waking up, and feeling the same way I did the night before (the night before)
Stuck in this rut, the same old same old routine (repeating endlessly)
I tried to dig myself, out of here
but all I did was suffocate (suffocate)
Until you pulled me out (Until you gave me light)
Until you set me free
Back home is where i found my hope and strength.
Never turn my back on my town, or forget where I came from.
Those are the things that I love. The things I hold my heart on my sleeve for.
True North
North Strong
Strong Hold
Hold Fast
You are my home
You are my solace
You are my home
You are my solace
Forever cold heart
Forever cold blood
My heart is forever young
I’m sick of waking up, and feeling the same way I did the night before (night before)
Stuck in this rut, the same old same old routine (repeating endlessly)
I tried to dig myself, out of here
but all I did was suffocate (suffocate)
Until you pulled me out (Until you gave me light)
Until you set me free

I know where you’ve been
Welcome to a place where integrity is the laughing stock
Desolation takes over
Nothing but filth all around me
I stared the devil right in the eyes
I sold my soul for a casket of lies
Where has my faith gone?
So many prayers left unanswered
I’ve learned to believe in myself
I wish I could say the same for you
I hope one day you pay the price
Cause even your death isn’t good enough
Cause even your death, isn’t good enough.
This is the last time I will ever write about you
I’m letting go, I’m cutting the strings
Your hold on me has been destroyed
I’ve lost all faith in you
And everything in between
Done with your vanity
On with this hate in my heart
I stand here forgotten
Never to be remembered
Wash my name in the sand
(You think I don’t know all) your twisted little secrets
(Your stories unfold) but I’m adding my twist to them
(My soul is in the grave), I’ve got nothing to lose
(Everything is coming crashing) down on you (DOWN ON YOU)
I am a parasite, (just like the shadow before me)
The cold doesn’t bite this thick skin
(Only the pain we call childhood) floods my eyes with sorrow
I am the strongest you’ll never be
I’m the last of your kind
The blood of the truth is the only voice that can sing about you
Beaten to the bone
I know i’m not alone
I’ll see you in your next nightmare
Motherfucker
I’m losing my mind
I just want out
I need closure but for that I’ll need you dead
I felt fuck all.
I felt fuck all.
Dead
Dead
Dead

If there's one thing I've learned
It's that everybody's got a vice
Being alone is like sharing needles
Stabbing negativity right in my veins
Poisoning my mindset.
Melancholy runs through me.
What if I am running out of time?
What if I can’t do this?
Too many things that I wanna do
Too little time, to do them all
When you’re face to face with reality,
and you know what you believe in, keep it close to your heart.
Instead of running from my fears, I'll become fear itself.
My blood is ice cold.
Prisoner of this hell
I can’t escape
From now on I’ll live day to day
One thing at a time, that’s what they say
Being alone is like sharing needles.
I'm sick, I'm sick. Diagnose me.
Being alone is like sharing needles.
I'm sick, I'm sick. Diagnose me. Diagnose me.
Do your worst. Do your worst.

False Hope

-It’s like it’s following me
-I feel its preying eyes on me
It’s stalking me in the shadows
The darkness swallows me
(It’s not real)
-Dreading sleep from the moment I wake up
-The things I’ve seen, you would never believe
I can’t even fathom how my own conscience
Would want to put me through this
(It’s not real)
I can feel a dark presence
I am paralyzed
I am Forced to stare it right in the eyes
Trying to stand my own ground in my own mind
This fictive battle I wage every night
(It’s not real)
“It’s not real” they say
“It’ll pass” they say
-But they haven’t seen what I’ve seen
They haven’t been where I’ve been
They isn’t their reality
(It’s not real)
Waking up in cold sweats
My heart beat’s racing
I walk down my hallway
The nightmare’s not over
(It’s not real)
Why can’t I realize that this is just a dream?
Why can’t I convince myself this isn’t happening?
Why can’t I realize that this is just a dream?
Why can’t I convince myself this isn’t happening?
(It’s not real)
It’s a never ending cycle
A vicious vicious cycle
An unbreakable cycle
All hell breaks loose in my mind
(It’s not real)
I try to step back but it’s way too late
The demon’s gotten a hold of me
and panic sets in, it’s survival at all cost
The demon’s cold hand grips my neck
The same phantom is standing at the end of the corridor
I freeze
Waking up in cold sweats
My heart beat’s racing
I walk down my hallway
The nightmare’s not over
(It’s not real)
Waking up in cold sweats
My heart beat’s racing
I walk down my hallway
The nightmare’s not over
(It’s not real)
Why can’t I realize that this is just a dream?
Why can’t I convince myself this isn’t happening?
Why can’t I realize that this is just a dream?
Why can’t I convince myself this isn’t happening?
(It’s not real)
