from the album "Dear Agony"
FADE AWAY
I'm cold and broken.It's over, I didn't want to see it come to this, I wonder if I will ever see your face again,
And I know that I will find a way to shed the skin; it's simple, I know that I will suffer in the end.
Fast I fade away, it's almost over, hold on; slow I suffocate, I'm cold and broken, alone.
It's hopeless, the end will come and wash it all away; forsaken, I live for those I lost along the way,
And I can't remember how it all began to break; we suffer, I live to fight and die another day.
Fast I fade away, it's almost over, hold on; slow I suffocate, I'm cold and broken, alone.
I WILL NOT BOW
Now the dark begins to rise, save your breath, it's far from over; leave the lost and dead behind, now's your chance to run for cover.I don't want to change the world, I just want to leave it colder; light the fuse and burn it up, take the path that leads to nowhere.
All is lost again, but I'm not giving in.
I will not bow, I will not break, I will shut the world away; I will not fall, I will not fade, I will take your breath away.
Watch the end through dying eyes, now the dark is taking over; show me where forever dies, take the fall and run to heaven.
All is lost again, but I'm not giving in.
I will not bow, I will not break, I will shut the world away; I will not fall, I will not fade, I will take your breath away.
And I'll survive, paranoid, I have lost the will to change, and I am not proud, cold-blooded fake, I will shut the world away.
CRAWL
A shadow of a man, I am nothing less, I am holding on, still holding on,And every now and then life begins again, I am holding on, still holding on.
I'm not like you, your faceless lies, your weak dead heart, your black dead eyes.
I'll make it through but not this time, your hope is gone and so is mine.
Live, fight, crawl back inside, sick, blind, love left behind,
And I won't live your weak wicked lie, you pull me in, I'm one step behind.
Show me where it hurts and I will make it worse, are you holding on, keep holding on.
Dilated eyes shine for one last time, are you holding on, keep holding on.
You're not like me, your faceless lies, your weak dead heart, your black dead eyes.
I'll break you in and let this die, your hope is gone and so is mine.
Live, fight, crawl back inside, sick, blind, love left behind,
And I won't live your weak wicked lie, you pull me in, I'm one step behind.
I'm becoming a monster just like you, after it all you'll try to break me too.
Falling forever, chasing dreams, I brought you to life so I can hear you scream.
GIVE ME A SIGN
Dead star shine, light up the sky, I'm all out of breath, my walls are closing in.Days go by, give me a sign, come back to the end, the shepherd of the damned.
I can feel you falling away, no longer the lost, no longer the same,
And I can see you starting to break, I'll keep you alive if you show me the way.
Forever and ever the scars will remain, I'm falling apart, leave me here forever in the dark.
Daylight dies, black out the sky, does anyone care, is anybody there?
Take this life, empty inside, I'm already dead, I'll rise to fall again.
I can feel you falling away, no longer the lost, no longer the same,
And I can see you starting to break, I'll keep you alive if you show me the way.
Forever and ever the scars will remain, I'm falling apart, leave me here forever in the dark.
God help me, I've come undone, out of the light of the sun.
I can feel you falling away, no longer the lost, no longer the same,
And I can see you starting to break, I'll keep you alive if you show me the way, forever and ever the scars will remain.
Give me a sign, there's something buried in the words, give me a sign, your tears are adding to the flood, just give me a sign.
HOPELESS
Here I lie forever, sorrow still remains, will the water pull me down and wash it all away?Come and take me over, welcome to the game, will the current drag me down and carry me away?
Suddenly the light begins to fade.
(Hopeless) I'm falling down, (filthy) I can't wake up, I cannot hold on, I will not let go.
(Worthless) It's over now, (guilty) there's no way out, I cannot hold on, I will not let go.
Silent I go under, I am not afraid, I can see the daylight shine and slowly drift away.
Safe to say it's over, sink into the grave, there is nothing left inside but I am wide awake.
I can hear the devil call my name.
(Hopeless) I'm falling down, (filthy) I can't wake up, I cannot hold on, I will not let go.
(Worthless) It's over now, (guilty) there's no way out, I cannot hold on, I will not let go.
WHAT LIES BENEATH
Take a breath, hold it in, start a fight you won't win, had enough, let's begin, never mind, I don't care.All in all, you're no good, you don't cry like you should, let it go if you could when love dies in the end.
So I'll find what lies beneath your sick twisted smile as I lay underneath your cold jaded eyes.
Now you turn the tide on me cause you're so unkind, I will always be here for the rest of my life.
Here we go, does it hurt, say goodbye to this world, I will not be undone, come to life, it gets worse.
All in all, you're no good, you don't cry like you should, I'll be gone when you fall, your sad life says it all.
So I'll find what lies beneath your sick twisted smile as I lay underneath your cold jaded eyes.
Now you turn the tide on me cause you're so unkind, I will always be here for the rest of my life.
Don't carry me under, you're the devil in disguise, God sing for the hopeless, I'm the one you left behind.
ANTHEM OF THE ANGELS
White walls surround us, no light will touch your face again, rain taps the window as we sleep among the dead.Days go on forever but I have not left your side, we can chase the dark together, if you go then so will I.
There is nothing left of you, I can see it in your eyes, sing the anthem of the angels and say the last goodbye.
Cold light above us, hope fills the heart and fades away, skin white as winter as the sky returns to grey.
Days go on forever but I have not left your side, we can chase the dark together, if you go then so will I.
There is nothing left of you, I can see it in your eyes, sing the anthem of the angels and say the last goodbye.
I keep holding on to you but I can't bring you back to life, sing the anthem of the angels, then say the last goodbye.
You're dead alive.
LIGHTS OUT
I am done pretending, you have failed to find what's left, I will suck you dry again.Some are not worth saving, you are such a pretty mess, I will choke the life within.
Now you want to take me down, as if I even care, I am the monster in your head,
And I thought you'd learn by now, it seems you haven't yet, I am the venom in your skin, and now your life is broken.
After the lights go out on you, after your worthless life is through, I will remember how you scream, I can't afford to care.
I am suffocating, you have failed to pull me in, I will drag you down again.
Life is unrelenting, feeding lies into my head, I will feed the lies you live.
Now you want to take me down, as if I even care, I am the monster in your head,
And I thought you'd learn by now, it seems you haven't yet, I am the venom in your skin, and now your life is broken.
After the lights go out on you, after your worthless life is through, I will remember how you scream, I can't afford to care.
DEAR AGONY
I have nothing left to give, I have found the perfect end, you were made to make it hurt, disappear into the dirt.Carry me to heaven's arms, light the way and let me go, take the time to take my breath, I will end where I began,
And I will find the enemy within cause I can feel it crawl beneath my skin.
Dear agony, just let go of me, suffer slowly, is this the way it's got to be, dear agony?
Suddenly the lights go out, let forever drag me down, I will fight for one last breath, I will fight until the end,
And I will find the enemy within cause I can feel it crawl beneath my skin.
Dear agony, just let go of me, suffer slowly, is this the way it's got to be?
Don't bury me, faceless enemy, I'm so sorry, is this the way it's got to be, dear agony?
Leave me alone, God let me go, I'm blue and cold, black sky will burn.
Love pull me down, hate lift me up, just turn around, there's nothing left.
Somewhere far beyond this world, I feel nothing anymore.
INTO THE NOTHING
Screaming on the inside, I am frail and withered, cover up the wounds that I can't hide.Walls that lie between us, the saint within the sinner, I have lost the nerve, but it's all right.
Carry the wounded and shut your eyes, all will be forgiven, none will rise.
Bury the fallen and lead the blind, I will find the lost, dead inside.
Into the nothing, faded and weary, I won't leave and let you fall behind.
Live for the dying, heaven hear me, I know we can make it out alive.
Leave me at the bottom, I am lost forever, letters from the dead say goodbye.
Sorrow falls upon us, this will be the last time, days begin to end but I'll get by.
Follow the hopeless and shut your eyes, all will be abandoned, none will shine.
Gather the broken and leave this life, lying in the earth side by side.
Into the nothing, faded and weary, I won't leave and let you fall behind.
Live for the dying, heaven hear me, I know we can make it out alive.
I'll keep you inside, where I lead you cannot follow, straight into the light as my breath grows still and shallow.
Stay with me, you're all I have left, I know we can make it out alive.
WITHOUT YOU
Search for the answers I knew all along, I lost myself, we all fall down.Never the wiser of what I've become, alone I stand, a broken man.
All I have is one last chance, I won't turn my back on you,
Take my hand, drag me down, if you fall then I will too, and I can't save what's left of you.
Say something new, I have nothing left, I can't face the dark without you.
There's nothing left to lose, the fighting never ends, I can't face the dark without you.
Follow me under and pull me apart, I understand there's nothing left.
Pain so familiar and close to the heart, no more, no less, I won't forget.
Come back down, save yourself, I can't find my way to you and I can't bear to face the truth.
Say something new, I have nothing left, I can't face the dark without you.
There's nothing left to lose, the fighting never ends, I can't face the dark without you.
I wanted to forgive, I'm trying to forget, don't leave me here again, I am with you forever, the end.
Holding the hand that holds me down, I forgive you, forget you, the end.
