I am your nightmares, true scares That dream when you can’t stop from falling Can’t fight, can’t run Can’t stop the person you’ve become I am your heartbreaks, mistakes That place inside you hate I am that shadow following every move, reminding you That it’s never good enough, never good enough Even though you’ll try and try I’m gonna call your bluff Because I am the thing bringing the feelings when… Your world comes crashing around you Smashes down around you When will you see that you cannot hide from me? When you feel darkness, hopeless Can’t cope with all the stress I’ll make you hate life, bring strife Remember failures hardened stare And it’s never gonna change, never gonna change Always they’ll be judging you Compared to who and who You trust in me but I only live to see Your world comes crashing around you Smashes down around you When will you see that you cannot hide from me? When I come for you When I see through you When I eat through you When I destroy you You’ll think you’re betrayed, astray I’ll leave you ripped and torn so bad you Can’t trust, can’t love Can’t understand why life’s so fucked I’m deep inside your mind In constant remind If you leave your thoughts to me, believe I’ll make sure that I see Your world comes crashing around you Smashes down around you When will you see that you cannot hide from me? I’ll make your world come crashing around you Smash down around you I’ll let you see why you cannot hide from me Because I am you

Yes, I hold some keys of gold A cigarette, a silver bullet Angels crying day and night The world is our stage Look inside and try and find The part of me that tore I wish I knew What I got through behind... Take my hand Across this land Escape this, all the hell inside Create this man To make my stand And break this hardened shell inside I see the man in me The lines along my face are drawn in I believe reflections bleed The sorrows of the souls Let me know the hurt that shows and wish it all away Cause now you'll see All this pain in me collide... Take my hand Across this land Escape this all the hell inside Create this man To make my stand And break this hardened shell in... I see the walls around me Fall around me And everything's alright I see the god among me Fall among me And everything's beside I see the walls around you, Tie and bound you Drown cos you're so cold.. cold.. cold.. Take my hand Across this land Escape this all the hell inside Create this man To make my stand And break this hardened shell inside So take my hand and cross this land And break this hardened shell in, hardened shell in, hardened shell inside...

I am the thing that makes you sick I am the blame that gets placed quick Detect the crack within your lie I'll be the wrath of your disdain I'll be the fear in you ingrained Become the facts that you deny [chorus:] I can feel this pain is real I hate deep down inside And like broken glass you'll shatter With bloody fists I’ll batter Like a ten ton hammer son I'll be the trembling in your breath Trickle of blood upon your flesh You'd love to watch me take the fall I'll be the thing that you despise Cause I’m a be there standing tall [chorus] I can't stand or take another day my friend You could learn a thing or two [chorus]
