Consider me dead if that's what you want. Gather around me, the day has come! Straight through the threshold the morning calls, wasn't meant to be there when I opened the door. You saw me begging, you saw me down on my knees, I felt defenseless and you don't know how it feels. I have made up my mind every time, it's been dragged in the dirt. Every scar wears a thought, leaving battles that I've loved. It's been hard, it's been fiercely infected. It's been dropped, it's been suddenly present. Cutting ways that I've walked, earning miles through it all. I was late for the kill but early for the slaughter, I don't care how it bleeds. I was late for the kill but stopped in to drag the waters, turn the bitter to sleep. I do believe there's something more though my vision's blurred. Straight out of nowhere, with the lack of words. I've been given the time, I've been given the faith. Don't you try to stop me, don't you lie to my face. I have made up my mind every time, it's been dragged in the dirt. Every word feeds the crown to dictate the profound. It's been hard, it's been fiercely infected. It's been dropped, it's been suddenly present. Cutting ways that I've walked, earning miles through it all. Through it all! I was late for the kill but early for the slaughter, I don't care how it bleeds. I was late for the kill but stopped in to drag the waters, turn the bitter to sleep. Just hear me out on this one because I ain't got nothing to hide. I will wipe out this mess, and return to life. Consider me dead if that's what you want. Gather around me, the day is done! Late for the kill, early for the slaughter. I don't care how it bleeds! Late for the kill, stopped in to drag the waters. Turn the bitter to sleep!

Watch me now! Gave in for the moment a lifetime of thrills, paid up to deserve it made up with my pills. Now will you ever learn, and make it all just turn? An ironic pattern, a foolish will, a sweet reputation, a passion to kill. Falling down again, and feel the core getting chilled. How it lies, a twisted device giving you up ten times. Stop the search and you will find, and dismantle the thrill. Hunting for closure, the story goes on. A cancer that bleeds won't leave till your done. Like streams of broken glass passing through your veins. Obsessed with obsession, corroded from guilt. Such a drag of progression, the tears getting spilled. Now will you ever learn, and make it all just turn? How it lies, a twisted device giving you up ten times. Stop the search and you will find! How it lies, a twisted device giving you up ten times. Stop the search and you will find! I’m playing alone, and will master. Talking to myself, and will find out. I’m playing alone, and will master. Talking to myself! I'm playing alone, and will master. Talking to myself, and will find out. How to retain ever after the pain, the sound, the bottomless game I was taught? How to retain ever after the pain, the sound, the bottomless game I was taught. How it lies, a twisted device giving you up ten times. Stop the search and you will find! How it lies, a twisted device giving you up ten times. Stop the search and you will find, and dismantle the thrill.

From the darkest river comes the darkest heart, never to be one with all I know. So bitter to the core, won't you fix your grudging soul. Forgiving yet unable to see what you have done. Embraced by the treasury, the mind's in captivity. I'm not your enemy, forced mind activity. Now is it so damn hard, don't tell me what I don't deserve. Coating the words, crushing the urge to be able to feel something more. Now where do we go, where do we go? Deliverance is mine! Me, myself and the hands of time. Deliverance is mine, and you're way out of line. Deliverance is mine! Me, myself and the hands of time. Deliverance is mine! Now let me run my own fucking show! Make up with your spitefulness, drain yourself from all the guilt. Become all of what you preach before you spill all your guts. Embraced by the treasury, the mind's in captivity. I'm not your enemy transporting all the guilt. Forced mind activity, ignoring what was built. Now where do we go, where do we go? Deliverance is mine! Me, myself and the hands of time. Deliverance is mine, and you're way out of line. Deliverance is mine! Me, myself and the hands of time. Deliverance is mine! Time to live through yourself, time to kill that golden parasite. Respect your own self, stop intoxicating your beliefs! Now where do we go, where do we go? Deliverance is mine! Me, myself and the hands of time. Deliverance is mine, and you're way out of line. Deliverance is mine! Me, myself and the hands of time. Deliverance is mine, live through yourself!

Let me tell you about a soul who loves disaster, the night comes clean and then he dreams of going faster. He deals with angels one on one and gets his hopes up, and it runs so deep, it runs so deep. Changes! Won't you tell me why it's changing? It breaks my heart each time! Changes! won't you tell me why it's changing? It breaks my heart each time when it dies! The desire we will fight is tearing through my veins We're exploiting the fears, bringing fire to tears. I am lost! He fights the anguish and he overcomes the madness, see angels fall and now the demons are his masters. With broken heart he turns away from all the sadness, and it runs so deep, it runs so deep. Changes! Won't you tell me why it's changing? It breaks my heart each time! Changes! won't you tell me why it's changing? It breaks my heart each time when it dies! The desire we will fight it's burning in my veins. We're exploiting the fears, bringing fire to tears. I am lost! Turn your back on me, does it have to be? Turn your back on me, does it have to be? Turn your back on me like the ones I've lost, opened up my insanity. Does it have to be, such an endless story that keeps on breaking me? I'm gonna reach out, I'm gonna take back what I once had. It's like I blacked out! No more deceit, no more regrets. Changes! Won't you tell me why it's changing? It breaks my heart each time! Changes! won't you tell me why it's changing? It breaks my heart each time when it dies! The desire we will fight it's burning in my veins. We're exploiting the fears, bringing fire to tears. I am lost!

Choking on nothing, hands turning cold. The deeper the mind goes the deeper the hole. I'm reaching a point where no one else goes. My fate seems to be split in half, can't control it at all. Words turn to ashes, comfort won't help. Pointless to reach out, I'm losing myself. All I know is I wish this could end, get rid of this feeling and stop to pretend. Let me try to understand as I've failed to be someone I'm not. It's so real, I've been fooled once again, I've been forced to feel. It's like I'm not present, it's like I'm not here. A voice calls with vengeance, I am lost with the fear. Searching for meaning, searching within. The lust that was broken has vanished again. Feels like a set up with no one to trust. The pictures I'm seeing won't leave till they're loved. So let me try to understand as I've failed to be someone I'm not. It's so real, I've been fooled once again, I've been forced to feel. And now I wonder what's become of me, is it the truth that was found? Whatever it is, I won't respect the sound of giving things up. Choking on nothing, hands turning cold. The deeper the mind goes the deeper the hole. I'm reaching a point where no one else goes. My fate seems to be split in half, can't control it at all. Let me try to understand as I've failed to be someone I'm not. It's so real, I've been fooled once again, I've been forced to feel. So let me... Fuck it all!

Lost, it's been a long time for this moment to come. Lost, it's been a long line where I've been waiting too long. Lost, it's been a long time for this moment to come. Lost, it's been a long line where I've been waiting too long. All those words and the consequences, won't you please shed some light? All the fear and all that joy, guide my way as I turn in desire. How it hurts when I give up, the way that it ends. Twist and turn till it erupts, the way it commands. Lost, it's been a long fight, and it kept holding on. Lost, it's been a long sigh, it has been clearing my mind. All those years being overloaded, all the strength I put in. Let me share what I've done to myself, I've been losing to win. How it hurts when I give up, the way that it ends. Twist and turn till it erupts, the way it commands. How it hurts when I give up, you don't understand. Twist and turn the way it looks into my eyes again. The way it commands!

Where is it all? Where am I? Only present to bleed, only present to die: Only scratching the joy, yet filled with desire. I will be turning my head off! I've made ways to forgive, I've made ways to forget. Ceasing the hours, made a friend I can reach. Can you hear how it's calling? I'll make sure it's not falling! How long will I turn myself around this time? Can I revive? And then it came! Blood rushing straight through the eyes of pain. Moving up, getting sane. It feels the same but time takes a toll on this buried flame. Lift me up, say my name. I was longing to feel it, crying for sleep. Finding the essence, burned by the heat. Given the answer, given the cause. Suddenly seeing it was lost when I called. I'm crashing down, nothing to keep. Without a sound I wed the weak. When it turns out the enemy's loose, at the back of my mind it is twisting the truth. How long will I turn myself around this time? Can I revive? And then it came! Blood rushing straight through the eyes of pain. Moving up, getting sane. It feels the same but time takes a toll on this buried flame. Lift me up, say my name. The feeling surrounds me, bigger than pain. Awaken by loss, engaged to maintain. It might switch for all I know. I'll let it drown in the afterglow. And then it came! Blood rushing straight through the eyes of pain. Moving up, getting sane. It feels the same but time takes a toll on this buried flame. Lift me up, say my name.

Here I am, the prodigal son, the self-proclaimed deprived. Spending hours of fighting the peace when I should lay it on the line. It makes it hard, I won't fall asleep until I'm one with the other side. Fighting shadows, imaginary scenes flashing through my mind. So could I be on the rise? Reality or disguise. Constantly mesmerized, ripped and torn, hypnotized. So could I be on the rise? Reality or disguise. Constantly mesmerized, ripped and torn, hypnotized. Let me feel the urge to get that rush once more, I will beckon when the sound of venture calls. When will I learn to resist? I should have put it down while it was in my hands like love that never dies. I'm preaching words that could answer it all as I'm bound to break the ties. I'm making progress again, the return of the blind. Feel the kick setting in, don't ever choke it again. Let me feel the urge to get that rush once more, I will beckon when the sound of venture calls. So could I be on the rise? Reality or disguise. Constantly mesmerized, ripped and torn, hypnotized. So could I be on the rise? Reality or disguise. Constantly mesmerized, ripped and torn, hypnotized. I'm making progress again, the return of the blind. Feel the kick setting in, don't ever choke it again. I'm making progress again, the return of the blind. Feel the kick setting in, don't ever choke it again. I'm on the rise!

I can feel how it's calling me, I can feel how it hurts like the words to a silent sleep as the beating gets worse. I face the fact as I roll the dice, pretend to feel when my luck is burnt. Sick of fighting, lad of provident lies, I hope the wind finally turn. Won't be Selfishly, won't share the wanted time? Can I make my way if I turn away? I've learned to trust the fall, I've learned to see through all. When the peril is out of time I'll be there at the end of the line. Sweet demise, always out of time. Sweet demise, through the threshold. For a deny, always out of time. Sent to die, born to defy. I don't care who is wrong or right because I had my share. It doesn't matter if it's out of sight when no one else seems to dare. Sick of fighting, lad of provident lies, I hope the wind finally turn. Won't be Selfishly, won't share the wanted time? Can I make my way if I turn away? I've learned to trust the fall, I've learned to see through all. When the peril is out of time I'll be there at the end of the line. Sweet demise, always out of time. Sweet demise, through the threshold. For a deny, always out of time. Sent to die, born to defy.

Can you please remind me where the fuck I’ve been? Because I can’t find out, you see? So return me to a vital place. From a distant observation, corrosion of emotions is how you block your state. From scratch to revelations, it’s all been there, bleeding for someone to dare. Extension of deceptions brings you to your final collapse. Am I really an exception? Is that your only entertainment, to blow your minds on a one way track. Spoiling your desire from a distance! Building knowledge out of flexible existence. Hunt for adrenaline is staggering, grand lack of emotions. You’ll never face conclusions, you’ll get what you want. Am I really an exception? Is that your only entertainment, to blow your minds on a one way track. I tell you a lie and make it a statement, you’re all wasting the time of your lives. Spoiling your desire, sleeping in denial! Cold and crawling, you made it back. Fear is selling and you’re one with the fact. Counting the days for rebirth, lost once again and now it hurts. Is that your only entertainment, to blow your minds on a one way track. I tell you a lie and make it a statement, you’re all having the time of your lives. Spoiling your desire, sleeping in denial! Is that your only entertainment, to blow your minds on a one way track. I tell you a lie and make it a statement, you’re all wasting the time of your lives.
