Giving Yourself Away
They tell me Your eyes Tell it all I'm afraid I don't see Anything at all Your eyes So dull they seem Without any light Nothing in there to see Nothing in sight Just empty holes Living a life Without a soul And it's like Your eyes Are the eyes of the blind Without sight Without hope For all mankind They tell me Your eyes Tell it all Still I don't see Don't see nothing at all Empty eyes Without a soul Empty shell Without hope Your eyes No light They tell me Your eyes Tell it all I'm afraid I don't see Anything at all Your eyes So dull they seem Without any light Nothing in there to see Nothing in sight Just empty holes Living a life Without a soul Just a shell With nothing inside I cannot tell What you might Think or see Or what you feel A pointless life It seems to me They tell me Your eyes Tell it all I'm afraid I don't see Anything at all Your eyes So dull they seem Without any light Nothing in there to see Nothing in sight Just empty holes Living a life Without a soul

My heart is in pain the feelings for you won't be the same My heart a diamond it won't be Black like coal, all you will see The pain from feelings of disgust What once was love is blown away like dust My heart black as night Tears like tar from my eyes Venom pumping through my veins When I speak my words are like flames My heart a diamond it won't be Black like coal, all you will see The pain from feelings of disgust What once was love is blown away like dust All because of the way I've been treated I have been deceived You cheated on me From the start Now I've got a charcoal heart My heart, black as night Tears like tar from my eyes The result of your goddamn lies

Signals you gave Signals returned Should tell us both We haven't learned Anything at all From one another From each other's point of view Even though we might Have understood a few Still there's nothing We can do The harm has been done Can't go back in time To resolve what has come Upon us both Upon our lives The signals were there In retrospect We were blinded by hope Still it won't come back The way things evolved Cannot change the past These things can't be solved So take it as it is Although we're in pain Should have noticed these signs These warnings should have gained Some insight In what we had Too bad We didn't understand
I see bulbs of light flashing by Souls with different goals They've all got various destinies So many but on their own They're moving fast A life like this won't last No time to stop Got to move on And I'm standing still Transfixed and in awe Wondering why Why this rush Why this haste This insane pace Being in a rat race They're moving fast As I'm standing on the crossroads Observing these souls on the move I keep thinking it is time It is time to slow down Slow down Slow down Slow down Slow down

I don't want to fall asleep When I fall asleep I feel naked in my mind My mind is showing me Things I don't want to see From the past and what is to be It's all too much for me As it shows who I really am And it shows who I'm gonna be Reality is shown within my dreams I have to stay awake by any means When I fall asleep I feel naked in my mind My mind is showing me Things I don't want to see From the past and what is to be It's all too much for me As it shows who I'm gonna be And it shows who I really am Reality is shown within my dreams I have to stay awake by any means I can't be proud off myself A masquerade of who I am I feel that's my only help Don't want to belong to the damned Yet to the damned I belong All hope forever gone Sleepless nights what I get A state of mind I regret I regret what I see when asleep All left for me to keep Nightmare visions, tossing and turning The sight of my mind burning

Only you You are the sole reason Of falling down Down into the well of sorrow You are the master The master of your own demise
