This is a new beginning! The past is dead and I won't ever go back Hope for a future; prevail within Prevail within!

Just hope for a future and prevail this fight I have the strength to carry on, but how long must I feel this way? I've grown so bitter about you It was something you always knew Can we forget these words? Or is it too late? The past is dead, but I won't bury you From now on my life won't ever be the same Haunted by visions, this can't be the end of me, no not tonight I don't want to waste away These nightmares always get the best of me Don't give up on me, cause' all I need is your voice to salvage all hope I have This is who I am now, for better or for worse This is my burden and I can't turn back the clocks You won't get the best of me. This is my destiny! This is my destiny I can't hold back now This is my salvation I don't want to waste away These nightmares always get the best of me Don't give up on me, cause' all I need is your voice to salvage all hope I have All hope I have. Carry me away from here I can't hold back Can't hold back This is a new beginning The past is fucking dead I won't ever go back I can't ever go back!

We are the sleepless And when the daylight starts to die Who will be left to save? Is this real or just a dream? Real or just a dream? I hope that one day this will end I don't know how much I can take Keep me close; reach for me This is for the broken This is for the fallen, move For the fallen And when the blood starts to pump through your veins You'll remember this is not a dream Oh my god Is this the end of everything that I know? I can't see what's in front of me Can you keep me from stumbling? Just breathe, just breathe Will I ever find my way back home? I'm so lost I need some guidance now We are so alone We are, we are the sleepless We are so alone We are sleepless We are so alone We are so insane We are the sleepless Oh my god Is this the end of everything that I know? I can't see what's in front of me Can you keep me from stumbling? Just breathe, just breathe Will I ever find my way back home? I'm so lost I need some guidance Hope is all I have, but will it be enough, be enough? Only time will tell This is the end Of everything we know This is the end As the sun starts to rise Who will be left to fight? (Left to fight) As the sun starts to rise Who will be left to fight?

Can you take away this pain that I've been holding onto? I can't get out of this hole These pictures and memories are all I have left Why did you have to go? I try, I try to get you out of my mind But to no avail, you're always there Why can't I forget you? I have to forget you I have to find a way, oh Sleepless nights, I know them all too well And here alone, I think of you (I think of you) Can you take away this pain that I've been holding onto? I can't get out of this hole These pictures and memories are all I have left Why did you have to go? It wasn't enough to always be by your side You always wanted what I couldn't give to you So, fuck an apology now You left me stranded and broken here Broken Can you take away this pain that I've been holding onto? I can't get out of this hole These pictures and memories are all I have left Why did you have to go? Where have you gone? I need you so bad What have I done? I need your voice Where have you gone? I need you so bad What have I done? I need your voice Take me away So far away from here Can you take away this pain that I've been holding onto? I can't get out of this hole (Out of this hole) These pictures and memories are all I have left Why did you have to go? (Have to go)

Just don't waste your time And don't waste your breath You've had your chance and now there's nothing left Can't you see what you've become? I should have seen that look in those eyes I should have seen the way that you smiled, go There is something inside of you Just remember I can see, I can see right through you All alone is how you'll always be A heart of stone will get you nowhere You only have yourself to blame I can see, I can see right through you An empty shell of what you used to be Keep in mind, "I'm sorry" is too late You only have yourself to blame How can you be so blind? Nothing in this world is perfect Well, I've learned from my mistakes But you will never learn If you think you can fuck with my heart And walk back in my life Then you have another thing coming You are so worthless, bitch What did I even see in you? Nothing more than a memory Oh, how I wish I could turn back time Maybe then you would finally see What you have become I can see, I can see right through you All alone is how you'll always be A heart of stone will get you nowhere You only have yourself to blame I can see, I can see right through you An empty shell of what you used to be Keep in mind, "I'm sorry" is too late You only have yourself to blame Realize this is all your fault I've grown so tired of this game You only have yourself to blame I'm not sorry for anything anymore You only have yourself to blame I'm moving on I'm moving on I can see, I can see right through you I can see, I can see right through you I'm moving on I can see, I can see right through you I can see, I can see right through you I'm moving on I can see, I can see right through you I can see, I can see right through you

I'm better off dead Do you know what it's like to be me? I'm walking this path so close And yet I feel nothing Set me free, release me from myself There is no time to lose I've got nothing left and I fear the worst I fear myself I fear my soul Just cast them aside, please pay no mind To the voices in my head, I think I'm better off dead Throw me to the wolves, I'm too far gone Say it again, say it again I think I'm better off fucking dead The darkness in my head Is as dark as this cold night sky So, get the fuck out of my way, of my way How can I trust myself When I'm losing my fucking mind? I'm losing control This can't be real Just cast them aside, please pay no mind To the voices in my head, I think I'm better off dead Throw me to the wolves, I'm too far gone Say it again, say it again I think I'm better off I think I'm better off I think I'm better off dead I'm losing control, I'm losing my mind This can't be real To the ocean floor, my soul sinks I'm so scared to breathe and all I have is myself Drifting endlessly, no one can save me now Let go I'm too far gone I'm too far gone There's no way out Just let go I'm too far gone I'm too far gone There's no way out Just fucking let go

All my life, I wanted to be so much more I'm tired of being second best, maybe this is just a test But how can I continue? I'm destined to fail, always fading to black Just let me go All we are is just ghosts now, empty and hollow Can you hear our hearts screaming out? (Screaming out) All we want is to feel whole again Whole again, oh A hollow heart and an empty soul is all that I have I can't pretend to be someone that I'm not In the end, remember, I found my home This is where I always belonged All we are is just ghosts now, empty and hollow Can you hear our hearts screaming out? (Screaming out) All we want is to feel whole again Whole again Is it pointless now to keep holding on? My heart starts to sink to the dark below Will you even remember my face when I'm gone? I took the easy way out Please just let me go Just let me fucking go And forget my name Is it pointless now to keep holding on? My heart starts to sink to the dark below Will you even remember my face when I'm gone? I took the easy way out Please just let me go Is it pointless now to keep holding on? My heart starts to sink to the dark below Will you even remember my face when I'm gone? I took the easy way out Please just let me go Just let me go Just let me go

Abusing your power, misusing your words Betraying the trust of the people who need you the most Satisfaction comes at a price But when is it enough? Heavy lies the crown It's not too late to change But this is who you are So, when they start to realize And they all leave your side Will you remember, will you ever see The monster you've become? Oh, how the times have changed An honest man now wears the crown of shame You left us here to drown Tell me, are you happy now? Look in the mirror What do you see? (What do you see?) A man worth dying for Or an illusion of leadership? So, when they start to realize And they all leave your side Will you remember, will you ever see The monster you've become? So, when they start to realize And they all leave your side Will you remember, will you ever see The monster you've become? Get up and step down This is where it ends for you We are the innocent ones And we won't be brought down anymore Tonight your reign is done Heavy lies the fucking crown Heavy lies your heart of stone Heart of stone Buried with your thoughts, you'll remain Buried with your sorrow, you'll always remain

Warning, system failure All memory is now lost I'll just delete my existence This is only beginning This is only beginning All alone now I can feel the walls start to cave on me now And I have no place left to go I feel the walls behind me They're closing in around me I feel the weight within me Crushing my bones inside me I can't rely on faith this time You have failed me, you have let me down I won't tell myself that I am fine It's like I'm falling away from everything I know Is this what's left of me? Holding on to something that was never real Will you be there to catch me? 'Cause I'm drowning, I'm fading, I'm losing grip on reality Reaching out for someone to save me Suffocating under the pressure I'm dying for one last chance Just one more breath My memories are useless, no matter how hard I try I will never be free from this torture I will never feel alive again My memories are toxic My memories kill me It's like I'm falling away from everything I know Is this what's left of me? Holding on to something that was never real Will you be there to catch me? 'Cause I'm drowning, I'm fading, I'm losing grip on reality Reaching out for someone to save me Save me As my eyes roll back in my skull The life leaves my body System failure System failure, fuck Where were you when I needed you? I'm afraid it's too late So say your last goodbye It's like I'm falling away from everything I know Holding on to something that was never real 'Cause I'm drowning, I'm fading, I'm losing grip on reality Reaching out for someone to save me It's like I'm falling away from everything

Your eyes have a way to cut right through me You see all of me, it's like time stands still Can this be real or is this just a dream? 'Cause I don't wanna wake up if you're not here You're falling away, away from me Please just stay Hold onto memories when I'm gone I swear I'll make it back to you, back to you Keep these words in your mind and my love for you inside I swear I'll make it back to you Can you see me now, can you hear my voice? I'm calling out your name, but you're just fading away How can I go on without your touch? I feel so far from you, it's hard not to fall apart But we're not like the rest of them We were always meant to be No Hold onto memories when I'm gone I swear I'll make it back to you, back to you Keep these words in your mind and my love for you inside I swear I'll make it back to you, back to you No matter how far apart You're always in my heart But we're not like the rest of them We were always meant to be No matter how far apart You're always in my heart Can you see me now, can you hear my voice? I'm calling out your name, but you're just fading away Hold onto memories when I'm gone (When I'm gone) I swear I'll make it back to you, back to you (Back to you) Keep these words in your mind and my love for you inside I swear I'll make it back to you, back to you (Back to you)

Constant lies echo through my head as I lie awake lifeless There is more to life than this! I am to be made, I am to be made new Fuck all what I once knew Now there is no turning back As far as I can see, this was meant to be Hiding from the truth and hiding from myself Keeping all these thoughts locked inside my head, that all ends now That all ends now! This is my life and this is my heart Ill fight for what I believe in Don't fucking give in now!

An empty heart won't get you very far You're drowning in your own mind It seems so easy to end the pain But if you do, there's no coming back Have hope and trust in my voice There's so much to live for Please don't give up yet There is more to this, I know When your final breath seems near Just know that I'm here You're not alone tonight When your final breath seems near Just know that I'm here Desperate to feel alive again, you seek death And to think that it's the only answer breaks my heart I'm sorry it has to be this way But as long as I live I will fight for you I will fight with you No one should feel this emptiness No one should feel this way Please don't give up yet There is more to this, I know When your final breath seems near Just know that I'm here You're not alone tonight When your final breath seems near Just know that I'm here Close your eyes, take a deep breath Is this what you really wish for? Is this what you really wish for? Is this life so dark that it has to end? Nothing even feels real anymore And everything feels numb Well, my friend, I'm here to tell you that you will heal Hold on and don't ever look back (Look back) Hold on Hold on And don't ever look back Please don't give up yet There is more to this, I know When your final breath seems near Just know that I'm here You're not alone tonight When your final breath seems near Just know that I'm here
