Undying Light

Give me Give me something real That doesn't sing for praise, Doesn't have to fight For validation's sake Wake up I take offense at my culture Critics and concubines of fame I see such disillusionment on display But what if they could see The life you hide away? Would you apologize for what you've Become? Your obsession with yourself Began to hollow out Your life Your pride Shatters around you now To expose all you hide This is all i have No life No pride There is nothing left Your life Your pride Shatters around you To expose all you hide She's comatose in memory Violent and cunning with deceit This winter never turned to spring All i hear are footsteps As you walk away And i hear your footsteps As you walk away

These limbs have grown so bare In the coldest winter of our given time Time's ticking down, And you were never meant to be here Running towards the fire, Feeding on the flames No one's here to guide you As creation blooms before your eyes Glory Lost to thoughts of apathy Shadows fill the void Where memories recede, As your light goes out Some were meant to fight Some were meant to die You will let your life flicker out Let it fade, Let it fade away Time is Time is running out Let the ghost of revelled youth Cling to you like shadows Chasing light

Witness The Sun that sets I felt a sickness Grasping from beneath Do not be afraid Just pour your sorrow into the sea It's written in the waves I can feel The way life ends An ocean of sunlit swells Drags us through the cold Dusk can set The darkness sets in An ocean of sunlit swells Drags us through the cold Sunrise sinks above us... As sunlight begins to sink, Home has become A place just out of reach Our home has become As broken as us Home has become A dream we awoke from

Callous always builds from pain Shelter only protects from the rain Give me a reason, Give me a reason not to fail I'm trying to claw my way up From despair If i drown Trying to come up for air, Tell them i fought But only made it halfway there Hollowed out From within Breach the surface, Drowning me All around, Something calls Follow it down again I cannot give in This is treason This is not how we're meant to live

I've let a snake's venom Course through me I've lost myself, I've done so willingly What have i become? Let me in, Let me guide you I'll protect you from yourself I'd give my life For my pride I'd do anything, for you It is the voice you hear Whispering I'm surrendering To ghosts inside my head Our egos become altars We kneel to each day To sacrifice who we are, To live as master and slave So sing Sing into the night Calling out from death Please, give me back The spark of life Lazarus, Lazarus I am falling faster now Falling fast from death I'll surrender like the ghost inside your tomb

Those days were mine I run to the past Searching for life to get back Those days are dead, Been buried alive And i can't forget All that i regret Those days are dead They're buried with time We were left here We have been forgotten Why won't you stay? Why won't you follow me now? Into the fog Out of reach, out of sight We have been forgotten Those were the days When i felt nothing I left all my pain I gave it away As the fog clears, We have been forgotten And we arise just like the Sun Into the fog Freedom Free from the days When i felt nothing Into the eye of the setting Sun All that we are Is undone

Dying Takes away The feeling i can't Shake away Sink Dying Takes away The feeling i can't Shake away Light is Fading away I'm sinking faster Slow down Slow down Takes away Light is Fading away I'm sinking faster Slow down Slow down

Listen Now you will see All you destroyed Nothing survived And the pain of existence is all that remains When can i see the world with youth in my eyes again? Am i wishing for days passed that will never come? So lie to me, And tell me that i'll be okay Tell me that i will be okay That this pain of existing Sheds away Please, tell me this pain Sheds away So whisper the comforts that eaze the pain I walk next to shadows that will never leave And i let this gasoline baptize our home Striking the match Anointed by none Let's burn down this house, Set it aflame For this place was broken Long before you came Now you will see As i depart
