The Long Way Home
There are no more barriers to cross. All I have in common with the uncontrollable and the insane, the vicious and the evil, all the mayhem I have caused and my utter indifference toward it I have now surpassed. My pain is constant and sharp and I do not hope for a better world for anyone, in fact I want my pain to be inflicted on others. I want no one to escape, but even after admitting this there is no catharsis, my punishment continues to elude me and I gain no deeper knowledge of myself; no new knowledge can be extracted from my telling. This confession has meant nothing

I came back from the dead I have so many scars embedded in my skin Remind me of days gone by Remind me of the years that have passed I stood my ground to come out better off I take it in every breath it could be the fucking last I came from a town that will always be home So many memories that will die with me I came from a town that will always be home So many memories will fucking die with me Try and cut me down to my knees I will stand back up to fight Try and cut me down to my knees Nine lives I just won't die No mercy No remorse No mercy No remorse No remorse I've seen death before, I know I'll see it again I have so many scars in bedded in my skin Remind me of days gone by Remind me of the years that have passed I've seen death before, it still hurts to breath I've seen death before me Barely breathing It hurts to breath left for dead It hurts to breath left for dead Left me for dead Barely breathing

Am I Still afraid? Frustrating those around me This mind is a constant race This mind is a constant fucking mess Never slowing down, never fucking calm A race that never ends And I am sorry, but I will never slow things down It's just the way that I know how To keep me one step ahead of the crowd And I am sorry, that I left you behind But I can't slow down The years have passed so fast, I'm still never slowing down Never take anything you have for granted Frustrating those around me Never slowing down (never slowing down) And never fucking calm And I am sorry, but I will never slow things down It's just the way that I know how To keep me one step ahead of the crowd And I am sorry, that I left you behind But I can't slow down (No I can't slow down) Sometimes I feel like giving up Sometimes I feel like giving up Sometimes I feel like giving up I've been a danger to myself I've been a danger to myself I've been a danger to myself I'm not afraid anymore I'm not afraid

Tonight I saw anger in motion I feel my blood boiling Tonight I saw anger in motion I feel my blood boiling Tonight is the night I hate everyone around me Everyone who continues to judge me I can see through you, cause you are a silhouette Always stepping on the people that you love You're a body without a soul The true shine through at the dead of night I will drag you to the depths Just to show you what you put me through I will drag you to the depths I hope that it hurts I hope that you will die The true shine through, only the strong survive Tonight I saw anger in motion I feel my blood boiling Tonight I saw anger in motion I feel my blood boiling Tomorrows a new day I've cast this pain aside Tomorrows a new day and only the strong survive The true shine through, only the strong survive
