[Instrumental]
You could choose to hold a grudge
for your entire life,
in your own world,
with your closed mind.
Why do I even try?
How can I trust in anyone who can barely
even trust in themselves?
You get what you deserve,
there is no remorse for the scum of the earth.
Deep down inside you're swimming in an ocean of guilt.
You blame us all for the walls that you've built.
One day you'll find that you've lost touch with everyone.
There's not a person in site.
So just open your eyes to a world you've never seen,
and open your mind to a thought you'd never think.
You get what you deserve there is no remorse
for the scum of the earth. No remorse.
The innocent is looking awfully guilty.
I'm not convinced, and I will not be deceived.
I honestly wish you nothing but the best.
I know you'll always hate me.
So just open your eyes to a world you've never seen,
and open your mind to a thought you'd never think.
You have no one to blame but yourself.
So just open your eyes to a world you've never seen,
and open your mind to a thought you'd never think.
Don't tell me how to feel.
I'm through with second guessing.
Old wounds have now healed,
immune to the affection.
Lay all my doubts to rest.
No need for opinions,
this is just how it's gotta be.
If you'd shut up and listen, I need some space,
I can barely breathe.
I gave you all that I've got,
it's all I have to give.
Don't tell me how to feel.
I'm through with second guessing truth.
I have to wake up and realize,
I need to escape from reality.
Oh, you're pushing me over the edge.
I have no patience left, there's nothing more to give.
I have to admit, I'm so over this.
I'm so through with trying to become everything
to everyone who expects me to lay my life out on a limb.
Don't tell me how to feel.
I'm through with second guessing truth.
I have to wake up and realize,
I need to escape from reality.
You think you know what it takes just
to let this go. Don't tell me how to feel.
I'm through with second guessing.
How's it feel? How does it feel?
I can't bear the site of meeting
eyes that form statues.
A torch bestows the light,
use a shield to block your view.
A monster's tomb.
Reflection is the weapon that I choose,
your own image staring right back at you.
And it's a mirror for my Medusa,
she looks nothing like she used to.
Medusa! I could explain, but it's no use.
Replace the truth with an excuse.
You better love me now before I'm gone for good.
Breaking your promises just like I knew you would.
I can't bear the site of the look in your eyes.
You once had my heart,
but it was always yours to lose.
Suffer from the consequence,
the choice was yours to choose.
I always knew that I could never fully trust in you.
I could never trust in you.
You better love me now before I'm gone for good.
Breaking your promises, just like I knew you would.
You better love me now before I'm gone for good.
I'm gone for good.
Another day lost, another week wasted,
another month gone,
another year fading away.
How can I dream if I don't ever sleep?
When does it pay off? I'm sick of waiting.
When do I become everything that I've wanted to be?
How can I dream if I don't ever sleep?
Tonight, I just stare into the dark
and hope there's a light that will
lead me to the answers for all of the questions
'm asking inside. Gone away, are all of the things
that we used to say,
and never again will I feel this way.
This is last time you'll hear me say,
"it's not okay".
This is my life, it's what I make it.
This is my time, it's now or it's never for me.
How can I dream if I don't ever sleep? Tonight,
I just stare into the dark and hope there's a light.
I hope there's a light on the other side.
As I sink my hands into the sands of time,
keep moving forward, keep moving forward.
Gone away, are all of the things that we used to say,
and never again will I feel this way.
This is the last time you'll hear me say,
"it's not okay".
Yesterday, is just a memory that fades away.
I'm so sick of just living day by day.
This is the last time you'll hear me say,
"I'm not okay".
How can I dream if I don't ever sleep?
This isn't how I pictured this,
I saw it all so differently.
Of what does this life consist?
Disappointments and certain tragedies.
And every time that I feel like I'm close,
it all just slips away from me.
Finally, our time has come,
we've been waiting here so patiently.
This is what we've always wanted and everything
everything is looking up,
we knew that there was something more.
This is our chance to,
this is our time to break out all of the chains that held us down before.
After all these years,
what have we to show?
We have conquered the impossible.
Nothings impossible.
All the dreams I've chased,
all the choices the I have made are falling into place.
Leave it all behind,
leave it all in the past.
I'm moving forward now,
and I'm never looking back.
Follow your heart and take a chance.
This is what we've always wanted and everything
everything is looking up,
we knew that there was something more.
This is our chance to,
this is our time to break out all
of the chains that held us down before.
After all these years what have we to show?
Nothings impossible.
All the dreams I've chased are falling into place.
It was never enough for you.
You were never enough for me.
I'm moving on.
[Instrumental]
With every end comes a new beginning
Where is this path never traveled leaning?
You have the choice to take control
You have the strength to defeat them all
Don't you give up, the time is near
For all to see, and for all to hear
Don't you give up, the time is near
This is your life so make it
For all to see, and for all to hear
You are destined for greatness
You've risked it all to get where you are now
It wasn't easy, but you made it somehow
You have the drive to see things through
You've earned your place and paid your dues
Don't you give up, the time is near
For all to see, and for all to hear
Don't you give up, the time is near
This is your life so make it,
For all to see, and for all to hear
You are destined for greatness!
This is your life, this is your life
You are destined for greatness
This is your life, this is your life
You are destined for greatness
Don't you give up the time is near
For all to see and for all to hear
Don't you give up the time is near
This is your life so make it,
For all to see, and for all to hear
You are destined for greatness!
This is your life, this is your life
You are destined for greatness
This is your life, this is your life
You are destined for greatness
I'm going for the throat
I don't care anymore
You can't hide the truth from me
But you tried, yeah, you tried so hard
And you failed so miserably
I have nothing left to lose
I wish that I could say
Say the same for you
I have nothing left to lose
Everything to gain, nothing left to lose
I wish that I could say the same for you
I wish that I could say the same for you
I don't need explanations
Save your excuses for somebody who really cares
You have proven yourself to be useless
What's done is done, what's fair is fair
I have nothing left to lose
I wish that I could say
Say the same for you
This is for what you did to me
This is for what you did
This is for what you did to me
This is for what you did
I have nothing left to lose
Everything to gain, nothing left to lose
I wish that I could say the same for you
I wish that I could say the same for you
This is for what you did to me
This is for what you did
You have gone too far this time
So long and good riddance
This is for what you did to me
This is for what you did
I have nothing left to lose
Everything to gain, nothing left to lose
I wish that I could say the same for you
I have nothing left to lose
I wish that I could say the same for you
I have nothing left to lose
I wish that I could say the same for you
I'm going for the throat
I don't care anymore
You can't hide the truth from me
I am the maniac that lives inside
your mindlessness
You think you're crazy but truthfully I'm the one that is
Some people can't tell the difference
They question themselves and their entire existence
I am on the brink, on the brink of insanity
Blurring the lines of fiction and reality
I am on the brink, on the brink of insanity
This is the beginning of my end
A single idea leads me straight to the edge
My unhealthy obsession
Poisoned by the possession
I'm trying
I'm trying to erase, I'm trying to forget
I need to forget
I need to escape from this prison in my head
From this prison in my head
I feel lost with nowhere to turn
What did I do to ever deserve
This never-ending nightmare
This constant burden that I bear
I am on the brink, on the brink of insanity
Blurring the lines of fiction and reality
I am on the brink, on the brink of insanity
I'm trying
I'm trying to erase, I'm trying to forget
I'm trying to forget
I need to escape from this prison in my head
From this prison in my head
For as long as I live, for as long as I breathe
I'll always be my own worst enemy
For as long as I live, for as long as I breathe
I'll always be my own worst enemy
I'll always be my own worst enemy
Pick it up!
I'm trying
I'm trying to erase, I'm trying to forget
I'm trying to forget
I need to escape from this prison in my head
From this prison in my head
It's time for a change, time for a cleansing
I can't just look away and keep pretending like there's nothing wrong
Because this was all my fault
Heaven help me, I've been going through hell
Heaven help me, I've been going through hell
I don't know how much more of this stress I can take
Heaven help me, I've been going through hell
(Heaven, heaven help me, heaven, heaven help me)
Beg for forgiveness
I'm so sorry for the things that I've done
With the devil upon my left shoulder
Asking me to against the will of my God
Don't listen to the demons, rid them from my head
Enter into darkness, prepare for the end
I have felt so sick
I don't need a doctor, call the exorcist
I have felt so sick
I don't need a doctor, call the exorcist
(Help, someone save me)
I don't need a doctor, call the exorcist
Beg for forgiveness
I'm so sorry for the things that I've done
With the devil upon my left shoulder
Asking me to go against the will of my God
Down on my knees I pray, to see the light of another day
Down on my knees I pray, to see the light of another day
I can hear the angels above me, trying to guide me home
I can feel the evil surrounding, dragging me down below
I have felt so sick
I don't need a doctor, call the exorcist
(Help, someone save me)
I have felt so sick
I don't need a doctor, call the exorcist
(Help, someone save me)
Let's go
Suddenly, everything is going to change
And they say nothing good can ever stay
But you know that I'd have to disagree
Because they've never met someone like me
Oh, I know that love is a test
But we are stronger, stronger than rest
I know that our hearts can endure
Because you're mine and I'm forever yours
I know it's not that easy
Sometimes it gets so hard
You're always here with me
Even when we are apart
I know it's not that easy
I know it's not that easy
I know it's not that easy
I know it's not easy
To love someone like me
We'll prove them wrong, you'll see
I know it's not easy
Oh my darling, my dear
You have nothing to fear
I am right here by your side
AS the years come and go
I just want you to know
That my heart will stand the test of time
I know it's not that easy
Sometimes it gets so hard
You're always here with me
Even when we are apart
I know it's not that easy
I know it's not that easy
I know it's not that easy
I know it's not easy
To love someone like me
We'll prove them wrong, you'll see
I know it's not easy
It will always be us against the world
It will always be us against the world
It's us against the world!
I know it's not easy
To love someone like me
We'll prove them wrong, you'll see
I know it's not easy
I know it's not that easy
Sometimes it gets so hard
You're always here with me
Even when we are apart
I know it's not that easy
I know it's not that easy
I know it's not that easy
[Instrumental]
Go grab your guy, go grab your girl
Because tonight we are the kings and queens of the world
So raise your glass, propose a toast
This goes out to the city that I call home sweet home
Because there's no place like home sweet home
Get to the show, let's rock and roll
Tell all your friends bring everyone you know
We'll live it up, we'll go all out
I'd like to see you try to stop us now
This is my pride, this is my everything
These are my friends, this is my family
Born and raised, there's no place that I'd rather be
This is our time, it's all we know
Let's make the most of this and just let go
So raise your glass, propose a toast
This goes out to the city that I call home sweet home
Because there's no place like home sweet home
Because there's no place like home sweet home
This goes out to the city that I call home sweet home
Because there's no place like home sweet home
This is my pride, this is my everything
These are my friends, this is my family
Born and raised, there's no place that I'd rather be
My heart will never leave here, never
Hometown pride, I'll love this city forever
My heart will never leave here, never
Hometown pride, I'll love this city forever
Because there's no place like home sweet home
Because there's no place like home sweet home
This is my pride, this is my everything
These are my friends, this is my family
Born and raised, there's no place that I'd rather be
It's been a long time coming
I finally figured it out
There's nothing left for us to talk about
I'm going to make this right
I'm taking back what's mine
To give up is for the weak
You beat me down, but now I'm back on my feet
I called for help, but you never took the time to listen
To anyone but yourself
This is the calm before the storm
You'll get what's coming to you, you have been warned
I've heard all the lies
Now I've opened my eyes to see
You're not the person you used to be
I'm going to make this right
I'm taking back what's mine
All of this wasted time
I'm taking back what's mine
The opportunity that you were handed
It went straight to your head (It went straight to your head)
I gave my advice, but you never took the time to listen
To anything that I said
This is the calm before the storm
You'll get what's coming for you, you have been warned
I've heard all the lies
Now I've opened my eyes to see
You're not the person you used to be
You may have won the battle
But I will win the war
This is the only thing I have
The only thing worth fighting for
You may have won the battle
But I will win the war
This is the calm before the storm
You'll get what's coming for you, you have been warned
I've heard all the lies
Now I've opened my eyes to see
You're not the person you used to be
You're not the person you used to be
Rise up
You aren't the only one
Who lives in a constant struggle
We all have our own hardships so grab the hand of your closest brother
This time we will become victorious
Our heart, they cannot take that away from us
Sometimes we hurt, sometimes we bleed
A shred of hope is all we need
A lesson learned, what will it be?
What will it take to set us free?
With the weight of the world
By the glare of the sun
Where the universe has left me to belong
Let go of all your past mistakes
Your worries, and regrets
That's not the life you lead
That was the life you left
Don't you forget
With the weight of the world
By the glare of the sun
Where the universe has left me to belong
With this brain in my head (With this brain in my head)
I can think for my own (I can think for my own)
I don't need someone to tell me what I already know (What I already know)
I can think for my own
With this brain in my head
I can think for my own
With this brain in my head
I can think for my own
With the weight of the world
By the glare of the sun
Where the universe has left me to belong
With this brain in my head (With this brain in my head)
I can think for my own (I can think for my own)
I don't need someone to tell me what I already know
I can think for my own
Once again I've been held back by the
ropes that tie me down
I've been here a thousand times, somehow I keep breaking out
I know it's the fight in me denying your every doubt
All that you have bled for, now it's time to prove yourself
So chant it loud
If this ship goes down then I'll go sinking with it
I will fight for all of the things that I believe in
I won't die, I won't die here tonight
I will fight, only the strong survive
The world will not wait for you
This is your only chance
To leave behind your legacy
Don't let it slip right through your hands
I won't die, I won't die here tonight
I, I will fight, only the strong survive
If this ship goes down then I'll going sinking with it
I will fight for all of the things that I believe in
If this ship goes down then I'll going sinking with it (I'll go sinking with it)
I will fight for all of the things that I believe in
The world will not wait for you
This is your only chance
To leave behind your legacy
Don't let it slip right through your hands
The world will not wait for you
The world it will not wait
The world will not wait for you
The world it will not wait
Now it's time to prove yourself
I won't die, I won't die here tonight (Here tonight)
I will fight, only the strong survive
If this ship goes down then I'll go sinking with it
I will fight for all of the things that I believe in
If this ship goes down then I'll go sinking with it (I'll go sinking with it)
I will fight for all of the things that I believe in
I see with the eyes in the back of my head
I always knew that this could never last
You dug this grave for yourself, so now you're gonna lie in it
The thought of you makes me sick to my stomach
To trust you was a lesson learned
If I saw your body catch fire
I swear I'd just watch it burn baby, burn
I wanna watch you burn baby, burn
Look at you now, good as dead
A feast for the vultures that fly overhead
Who are you now? You're a mess
You pushed them away, now you having nothing left
You dug this grave, now you will lay
Under every choice and decision you made
Nothing you say will ever change
The way I feel about you
That's the price that you pay
The thought of you makes me sick to my stomach
To trust you was a lesson learned
If I saw your body catch fire
I swear I'd just watch you burn baby, burn
I wanna watch you burn baby, burn
Look at you now, good as dead
A feast for the vultures that fly overhead
Who are you now? You're a mess
You pushed them away, now you have nothing left
Look at you now, good as dead
A feast for the vultures that fly overhead
Who are you now? You're a mess
You pushed them away, now you have nothing left
You have nothing left
[Instrumental]
Welcome to my personal hell, won't you be my guest?
I'm just a tormented soul, demented, and possessed
No matter how high I climb, I keep falling back
Will I ever escape this endless punishment?
There is a monster inside of me, it will eat you alive
Stay away or you'll be next. Run, run for your life!
Save me, save me from myself
I keep hiding secrets that I wish I could tell
But I'll never tell. I'll never tell
I said I didn't need it, but I could really use the help
The way that I've been feeling is a way I've never felt
The evil's overtaking, my eyes are seeing red
Soon I will be covered in the blood that has been shed
There is a monster inside of me, it will eat you alive
There is a monster inside of me, it will eat you alive
Stay away or you'll be next. Run, run for your life!
Save me, save me from myself
I keep hiding secrets that I wish I could tell
But I'll never tell. I'll never tell
Into the fire, that's where I fell
Welcome to my own personal hell
I greeted Death like an old friend
As he reached out his hand I felt my body descend
Into the fire, that's where I fell
Welcome to my own personal hell
I am never gonna change just to make you happy
If it's not worth it to you, then it's not worth it to me
You ungrateful waste of my time
Pull the plug and watch us flatline
Falling behind me
We were something
Now we're nothing
Please don't remind me
Don't say you ever cared
'Cause you were never there for me
Don't say you ever cared
'Cause you were never there
Never there for me
This isn't what I want
You are not who I thought
Who I thought you'd be
I fell pathetic, I hung onto every word
Your speech perfected as if you had it all rehearsed
Put the nail in the coffin and cover me with dirt
And there's no getting better, it will only get worse
Falling behind me
We were something
Now we're nothing
Please don't remind me
Don't say you ever cared
'Cause you were never there for me
I don't know why I hurt
Or ever questioned myself worth over someone like you
But if you want to see the scars
I will carve out my own heart just to show you the proof
I'm dead inside because of you
Falling behind me
We were something
Now we're nothing
Please don't remind me
Don't say you ever cared
'Cause you were never there for me
Walking through life on a tight rope
So afraid to fail, so afraid to fall
Hiding behind the shadow of who you really are
'Cause someone told you, "you're not good enough"
Hopeless one, don't hang your head
Who you become is up to you in the end
It's a long way down
Don't let yourself hit rock bottom
Stop living to die, start dying to live
This is where the torment ends
Stop living to die, start dying to live
This is where your life begins
You value everyone else's opinions
But never seem to value your own
Why be a pawn when you can be a king?
And lead yourself straight to victory
Hopeless one, don't hang your head
Who you become is up to you in the end
It's a long way down
Don't let yourself hit rock bottom
Stop living to die, start dying to live
This is where the torment ends
Stop living to die, start dying to live
This is where your life begins
Hopeless one, don't hang your head
Hopeless one, don't hang your head
Hopeless one, don't hang your head
Who you become is up to you in the end
It's a long way down
Don't let yourself hit rock bottom
Never sure of which direction to go
We hold a compass, but have no place to call home
A sense of wonder and a desire to grow
As we venture into the unknown
Find our place here, what's our purpose?
There has to be more than what's on the surface
Rising Moon, setting Sun
Cast your shadow, watch over us
As we sleep and drift away
Into a dream, upon these waves
Rising Moon, Setting Sun
Cast your shadow, watch over us
Soaring above, never sinking below
We will persevere, we will stay afloat
Through every storm and test of our will
Our courage can not ever be killed
Show the world who you really are
This is your universe
It was yours from the start
Show the world who you really are
This is your universe
Write your name in the stars
As we sleep and drift away
Into a dream, upon these waves
Rising Moon, Setting Sun
Cast your shadow, watch over us
Show the world who you really are
This is your universe
It was yours from the start
Show the world who you really are
This is your universe
Write your name in the stars
As we sleep and drift away
Into a dream, upon these waves
Rising Moon, Setting Sun
Cast your shadow, watch over us
If you want it, come and get it
You talk too much, but don't live it
Just another running mouth wasting air to breathe
You act like you deserve it
When you know damn well you haven't earned it
You will never get any respect from me
You've been handed everything
Never worked for anything
You'd hate to admit it
But you know it's true
You're the one that waged this war
So what are you waiting for?
I'm standing right in front of you
You are no better than me
I am the opponent you will never defeat
Pick it the fuck up!
Some people just never learn
Play with the fire and you're gunna get burned
You are no better than me
I am the opponent you will never defeat
Bring it motherfucker!
Here I lay rotting in regret
Underneath the tombstone where they put me to rest
Always wishing that I had another chance
Always hoping to hear a heartbeat in my chest
I used to love my life when I had it
Now I spend all my time in this casket
Listen to the melody of the voices in your head
Sing along so willingly to the chorus of the dead
What the fuck is wrong with me?
Where did I go wrong?
I took for granted everyday of my life, forever lost
Rolled the dice, I was gambling
I took the risk, and I went all in
A mistake I will not forget
Here I lay rotting in regret
Listen to the melody of the voices in your head
Sing along so willingly to the chorus of the dead
I used to love my life when I had it
Now I spend all my time in this casket
My life is over now I'm D-E-A-D dead, oh shit!
Listen to the melody of the voices in your head
There is no escaping from, the chorus of the dead
I'm always beating myself up
I scream and I yell, but my voice is gone
You think it's easy to let go
And just let your mind flow
But trust me it's not
So we are at the start again
And I'm falling apart
You can hate me, you can blame me
Just like everyone always does
I can't speak, my stomach feels weak
I'm running out of words to say
I can see the end so clear
But it feels so far away
You can hate me, you can blame me
You can try, but you're never gonna change my mind
This is just the way I live my life
My world is spinning around me
I feel like I'm drowning
I feel so confined
And everyday it's the same old thing
I'm starting to think it's not worth my time
You can hate me, you can blame me
You can try but you're never gonna change me
Now it's time to say goodbye
To everything you thought you knew
You can hate me, you can blame me
You can try but you're never gonna change me
Now it's time to say goodbye
To everything you knew about me
I can't speak, my stomach feels weak
I'm running out of words to say
I can see the end so clear
But it feels so far away
You can hate me, you can blame me
You can try, but you're never gonna change my mind
This is just the way I live my life
You can hate me, you can blame me
You can try but you're never gonna change me
Now it's time to say goodbye
To everything you knew about me
I can't speak, my stomach feels weak
I'm running out of words to say
I can see the end so clear
But it feels so far away
You can hate me, you can blame me
You can try, but you're never gonna change my mind
This is just the way I live my life]
There is no need to prove you wrong
We all know that you're the guilty one
Blood on your hands with your weapon drawn
Knew it was you, I knew it all along
You'd kill me with kindness
If kindness was a rope that you could wrap around my neck to watch me choke
You would make me a promise that you know you couldn't keep
Just to stab me in the back and watch me bleed
After everything we've been through
You go and throw it all away
We were the best of friends
Now we're the worst of enemies
I would sleep with one eye open if I were you
Two can play at this game that I'll never lose
You fake, two faced, sad example of the human race
Never give, always take
Suffer the consequence of the choice you made
After everything we've been through
You go and throw it all away
We were the best of friends
Now we're the worst of enemies
You fake, two faced
Sad example of the human race
Never give, always take
Suffer the consequence of the choice you made
After everything we've been through
You go and throw it all away
We were the best of friends
Now we're the worst of enemies
It's taken years for us to come this far
We never stopped believing
Nothing could tear us apart
Always there standing right next to me
Showing your allegiance, proving your loyalty
This is the path that we chose
It's all that we have, it's all that we know
This is the path that we chose
Nothing worth having comes easy
But we never lost hope
You are my heart, you are my home
Side by side, never standing alone
You are my heart, you are my home
This is the story of the underdogs
Who wouldn't stay down when they doubted us
Overlooked, pushed aside, counted out
Took their negativity and turned it around
We are the makers of our destiny
We are the masters of our fate
We are the makers of our destiny
We'll do whatever it takes
You are my heart, you are my home
Side by side, never standing alone
You are my heart, you are my home
Side by side, never standing alone
Brothers in arms we will always be
Together we fight, together we bleed
You are my heart, you are my home
Together we fight, together we bleed
Together we fight, together we bleed
You are my heart, you are my home
Side by side, never standing alone
Together we fight, together we bleed
Together we fight, together we bleed
