The Cycle

As the time progresses in this empty world,
I feel the ground below me slowly rotting away.
The angels, the devils and all in between,
Leading me astray, circling the grave.
I have to fight but,
I don't know what it takes,
For me to find the power within,
To stop this never-ending,
Pattern, to see the light again.
I hope to see it soon,
Otherwise I'm not sure what I'll do.
If this constant loop continues,
I will detest while,
Deprivation surrounds, mutilating my soul,
A monochrome world, unchanging and cold.
The non-stop pressure to toil and bleed,
Sucked into the cycle, until eternal sleep.
I'm trying, but dying, to merely feel something,
To keep me going but I don't know if I can.

Take your hope and hold it close for me
I’ll stay inside this hole
Try to listen, you won’t get me
Keep your words and your fucking envy
I would refrain from using blasphemy
Because you know that the devil is listening
Only find peace when I’m six feet underneath
I’ll play my part while you slowly watch me leave
I am no longer here
Feeding it into me
No one can set me free
Just give me relief
Manufactured sense of love
Fabricated in my blood
Pull me out, fucking help
Don’t tell me how the fuck I feel
Take your hell, hold it dear
When I die I hope you care
Forgive me for the pain I've become
I long to feel now that I am numb
Take it away from me
Sick of living diseased
I am my enemy
So fucking bury me
I feel it coming
It’s uncanny because
The fact that I’m still alive is a miracle
Watch my mistakes
Bury me alive

There came a time where what we had became something to look back on,
All that it took was someone else to get involved now we lay in the fractures.
Always searching for someone to blame and it was lucky that you had me.
I always took the fall,
Just to try and save you from yourself,
When no one else would even turn an eye.
Why would you drag it on this far?
I just want you to see,
I’m not the bad guy you made me out to be.
Let it go,
Let me be free.
Take a look at what you’ve become,
A lost soul with no where left to run.
No forgiveness to those weaker ones, which you fed lies.
Come and face me now,
No, I will not sit back down.
Just a waste of precious air,
For all fucked up souls, the blame you’ll wear.
I’ve given my all and the truth will show,
Scared to admit it, they already know.
Give me a second, listen to me.
Dead to me now, you’ll rot in peace.
Always searching for someone to blame and it was lucky that you had me.
I always took the fall,
Just to try and save you from yourself,
When no one else would even turn an eye.
Why would you drag it on this far?
I just want you to see,
I’m not the bad guy you made me out to be.
Let it go,
Let me be free.
You dig a hole for someone else,
But you don't know you'll fall in yourself.
When you do, I won't be there to save you.
A jealous mess,
I now lay you to rest.

There’s something about the pain
When you get that feeling running through your veins
It builds itself up and eats away inside
If only I can find a place to run and hide
I’m not the same anymore, but I need you
I’m not ashamed and I’m sore, but I plead to
Just to let you know
That I can’t let go
There’s a song in my head
And it screams
And it says
It's been a long three months since you left me here
And I can’t let the thought of you disappear
I will forgive, but I will never forget
When this song in my head, when it plays, I see red
I’ve taught myself to find the light
Just need to fight, for all the times you let me suffer
Just let me dig into my secrecies
Let me show you that I am not
I’m not the same anymore, but I need you
I’m not ashamed and I’m sore, but I plead to
Just to let you know
That I can’t let go
There’s a song in my head
And it screams
And it says
I’m not the same anymore
I’m not ashamed anymore
I’m not the same anymore
I’m not the same anymore, but I’ll do this alone, on my own
Here’s to the undying will of hate
You can’t change it, stop it
Just let go
Just let go
You can’t change it, stop it, just let
I will find my hope again
I'll lose my grip, been waiting for this
Sleeping inside my loneliness
So sick of just holding my breath
I’m not the same anymore, but I need you
I’m not ashamed and I’m sore, but I plead to
Just to let you know
That I can’t let go
There’s a song in my head
And it screams
And it says
I don't need you
Now I plead to
Just to let you know
I did this on my own
There’s no song in my head
Just forget what I said, I need

As we grow older, tempting fate,
We try to fix all our mistakes,
Not knowing what we’ll leave behind, Just hoping it was all enough.
Will you remember me?
'Cause I’ll remember you.
Time might pass me by,
I’ll soon see my day too.
The eternal sleep,
Your pain is gone, no longer weak.
The tears we wept, the pain we shared,
I know one day we’ll meet again.
Reassurance to mend our hearts,
The beauty of life on which you left your mark.
They say that time heals the pain,
A new angel that they have gained.
I search for what I choose to find,
Though the time is way too scarce.
And I'm scared I'll lose my mind,
I lucid dream, but in nightmares.
Will you remember me?
'Cause I’ll remember you.
Time might pass me by,
I’ll soon see my day too.
Bound by the chains known as time.
Call upon on the unknown,
Don’t be afraid you’re not alone.
Once so close, now stands so far,
Eternally live in our heart.
Rest upon your sacred place,
A destiny we all will face.
Up above, watching below,
Take our hand and guide us home
The eternal sleep,
Your pain is gone, no longer weak.
The tears we wept, the pain we shared,
I know one day we’ll meet again.
Reassurance to mend our hearts,
The beauty of life on which you left your mark.
They say that time heals the pain,
A new angel that they have gained.
