Vultures Above, Lions Below

Would you take away all of the graves That litter my mind till this day Would you clear a path through the trees Or are you just gonna walk away? Don’t leave me here this way Take me back Where this began I swear to God I used to love these lights This city is darker Ate me alive Should have known they’d protect their hive Open me up Climb inside Take what you want just remember what’s mine Take my heart Take my eyes Take my soul and feel the other side Vultures above Lions below Nothing like waiting to see how you go Do I fight this? Do I fight this? Hands are tied Behind my back Belief in me, the only thing I have And it’s fading Slowly eroding Tired of the people and all the commotion See the finish line But I can’t feel my legs See the checkered flag but there’s no gas left And I’m sinking I’m sinking Vultures above Lions below Nothing like waiting to see how you go Do I fight this? Do I fight this? Take me I want this, I don’t want you I need this more than you do White doors are slowly closing I lie awake just hoping

I can't breathe I can't breathe Suffocating, just loosen the noose You give me no reasons so fuck your excuse, I'm tired of you Breaking me down, I'm losing the fight The only way out is to get to the light, I'm so sick that I'm embracing The end, this is what you wanted Pushing and pulling till limbs start departing I fracture, I'm bleeding within No one can see that I'm drowning from sin Now breathe Now breathe me in, now breathe me in I've got this noose around my neck Reminds me of the time I have left I need to do this on my own 'Cause I was meant to be free so just leave Now breathe me in Colliding, our worlds caving in Too bad the tunnels were dug from within I can try piece back this puzzle If only the pieces weren't dead from the hollowing out Hollowing out I've got this noose around my neck Reminds me of the time I have left I need to do this on my own 'Cause I was meant to be free so just leave I've got this noose around my neck Reminds me of the time I have left I need to do this on my own 'Cause I was meant to be free so just leave Extract me, get me out I'm sick of the ghosts that are dragging me down Extract me, get me out The anchors and chains only scarring me now Extract me, get me out The target is burning a hole in my back Extract me, get me out If this is called living then stop my heart I've got this noose around my neck Reminds me of the time I have left I need to do this on my own 'Cause I was meant to be free so just leave I've got this noose around my neck Reminds me of the time I have left I need to do this on my own 'Cause I was meant to be free so just leave

Get up I can feel that it's changing Diamonds forming from stone I'm reaching out to the hands of time and I'm begging for a little more So dig me out So dig me out, yeah, so dig me Pushed the nails from my coffin I let the dirt seep inside Clawing, scratching for days on end till I Caught the sun in my eyes So dig me So dig me out, yeah So I tried to fly, anchored to the wind Slowly falling, I was falling I'm not ready Only dirt can catch me now You can not bury me, try and I'll find a way You can not bury me, try and I'll find a way You can not bury me, try and I'll find a way You can not bury me, try and I'll find a way So dig me out, yeah So dig me out, yeah, so dig me

Don't let your heart give way ‘Cause it just might be the last time You can take it I know the past has been cruel But that’s a hurt you remember And you can use it Let’s keep marching on Let’s all keep marching on Push aside all the broken times Break away and leave the past behind Hurricane take us away Spit us out and start again Far away from all the wasted life We've seen Hurricane take us away Leave behind our misery In the wake of the destruction we have seen Will you look back on your life And know you did all you could To live alive be happy Don't let the past bring you down Mistakes are lessons you learn from Just pay attention Did you crawl did you claw did you fight back Did you walk did you hit did you fight back Did you push till it cracked did you fight back Did you love just enough to get love back Let’s keep marching on Let’s all keep marching on Push aside all the broken times Break away and leave the past behind

I’m letting go You need to fall Before you learn how to fly You know I’ve made mistakes But I tried I’ve lost everything No price I can pay to begin again Just go I’m letting go of who I am I’m running towards the ocean Drown the thoughts that weigh me down I’m letting go I’m changing now Back before the voices Twisted up and tore me down I’m letting go Blame me Blame who you want This life’s too short to right the wrongs We just hurt the very thing That has carried us With a life to live Just go Can we move through this struggle? Can we push past the pain? Can we all climb this mountain? Can we do us again? I’m letting go of who I am I’m running towards the ocean Drown the thoughts that weigh me down I’m letting go I’m changing now Back before the voices Twisted up and tore me down I’m letting go I know the truth And the sky’s falling down Lies coming out, I’m done I know the truth And the sky’s falling down Lies coming out, I’m done I’m letting go of who I am I’m running towards the ocean Drown the thoughts that weigh me down I’m letting go I’m changing now Back before the voices Twisted up and tore me down I’m letting go

I look in the mirror at me, it's so hazy I look like a shell that's just barely breathing Why does it move when I'm standing still? Am I the reflection? Am I fucking crazy? Who do you see? You judge the cover with the scars so deep So tell me now, who do you see? I could see it in my reflection all along The face that hides me, I should of seen this all along You tore me open, now you see what lies beneath my skin Who have I become? I've got to live with what I've done I'll tell you mine if you tell me yours Secrets best kept with a similar cause If only the weight of the world was gone I'd see that this life has so much more Who do you see? You judge the cover with the scars so deep So tell me now, who do you see I could see it in my reflection all along The face that hides me, I should of seen this all along You tore me open, now you see what lies beneath my skin Who have I become? I've got to live with what I've done Who do you see? Who do you see? Who do you see? Who do you see? Who do you see? 'Cause I know it's me

I'm focusing on everything They forced me to stop, so I'm starting again I feel so alive, I'll take what's mine You get what you give, it all just takes some time I'm searching for a saviour, but the prayers won't reach the end I've got to leave this life behind me, just push me from the edge I'm breaking the cycle and I'm starting this again I'm taking the high road and I'm dreaming of the end, it's all I know Tried talking to God, but fell on deaf ears Changing the tide means forgetting your fears There's no rescue, no help from above You'll find in yourself how to change what's on the cards I'm searching for a saviour, but the prayers won't reach the end I've got to leave this life behind me, just push me from the edge I'm breaking the cycle and I'm starting this again I'm taking the high road and I'm dreaming of the end, it's all I know Woke up, I'm alive now I can see past the horizon See the shimmer on the waters edge As the calm breeze hits against my chest Woke up, I'm alive now I can see past the horizon See the shimmer on the waters edge As the calm breeze hits against my chest I'm not done for good, I'm not done for good Woke up, I'm alive now I can see past the horizon See the shimmer on the waters edge As the calm breeze hits against my chest Woke up, I'm alive now I can see past the horizon See the shimmer on the waters edge As the calm breeze hits against my chest I'm not done for good, I'm not done for good I'm not done for good

Who are you talking to You’re not welcome to stay You’re making me sick Like a ship in rough seas I want to bury you Deep inside I want to lock you up In the back of my mind I'm losing sight of me But I can't help myself God knows the things I've done When I dragged my life through hell This demon’s out to get me Pour the poison down my throat And it’s breathing in the air I'm Slowly choking on my ghosts I know you have the key Ruin whats left of me According to you I'm nothing anyway I want to bury you Deep inside I want to lock you up In the back of my mind When the bottle hits my lips I can't stop till I'm a mess I thought this was my release From the sorrow and the grief What’s inside of me What’s this side of me What’s inside of me What’s this side of me

Break what needs to be broken Save what needs to be saved I'll bleed for this if that is what it takes 'Cause this is war, this is war I'm crawling through the dead, the ghosts that call my name With a shadow in my heart and I'm swallowing the pain I'm falling down again, I'm broken on the inside The pieces never mend, I'm dying to forget Try, you know we got to survive Is this as bad as the last time? I need to find the strength again I’ll bleed for this if that is what it takes ‘Cause this is war, this is war I'm crawling through the dead, the ghosts that call my name With a shadow in my heart and I'm swallowing the pain I'm falling down again, I'm broken on the inside The pieces never mend, I'm dying to forget We can't run any longer We can't step to the side We need to face these feelings We need to fight for life This is war, this is war This is war, this is war I'm crawling through the dead, the ghosts that call my name With a shadow in my heart and I'm swallowing the pain I'm falling down again, I'm broken on the inside The pieces never mend, I'm dying to forget

I feel like I've got nothing left Been searching so long for a reason to live The deeper I dig, the more I'm losing my grip If I let go would you hold on anyway? I'm at the edge, I'm facing the end Should I leave it all behind? Can I live this life? Wake me up, save me I'm lost and I'm alone, take me home Goodbyes only getting harder I see it on your face that you hope it's the last time Ink's blurred on the page, tears falling from rafters I hope I choose well when I'm playing with fire I'm coming home I'm coming home I'm getting back to me Back to the man that you need me to be It's been so long, I've been so far away Give me one more chance you'll see the best of me I'm at the edge, I'm facing the end Should I leave it all behind? Can I live this life? Wake me up, save me I'm lost and I'm alone, take me home I've watched as I fall, now watch as I fall away From the stars to the oceans and I'm floating far away You are the rope, you are the anchor, holding me back from the edge You are the strength and the love to bring me home again I'm at the edge, I'm facing the end Should I leave it all behind? Can I live this life? Wake me up, save me I'm lost and I'm alone, take me home

Stand up, be a man Take it on the chin like I know you can Those walls must be closing, choking all the air Empty your lungs with your lies, you scared? All alone in the dark in the end We're all connected, black silk from your web Draining the life out of dreams I have dreamed I hope that you hear this, I'll never forget Glad you're gone You'll never hear me say That I'll need you here to watch me, watch me walk away Go ahead admit that you're wrong You'll feel so much better, your conscious so torn How do you sleep? Do you lie awake? Do you dream of Hell or just your mistakes? Open your eyes and peek through holes Jump the fence and run with the wolves How would it feel on the other side? How would it feel with nowhere to hide? Glad you're gone You'll never hear me say That I'll need you here to watch me, watch me walk away Now I'm alive and I'll cut these ties tonight And I'm dying to survive and you've taken all that's mine Now I'm alive as the candle loses light The hope is burning bright, all the bridges set on fire Now I'm alive, now I'm alive I see straight through your eyes where you hide behind the lies I see straight through your eyes where you hide behind the lies I see straight through your eyes I see straight through your eyes Now I'm alive and I'll cut these ties tonight And I'm dying to survive and you've taken all that's mine Now I'm alive as the candle loses light The hope is burning bright, all the bridges set on fire Now I'm alive
