The sun was shining very bright
In my very darkest night
The stars' they misaligned
The moon I simply couldn't find
Left frozen on that August day
A blizzard of emotions in the way

Amongst the pain and agony
I found myself on bended knee
No longer able to stand
Buried in your life's sand

So now on my belly I'll crawl
Banging my head against the wall
Knowing I'll never see the light
This situation I can not fight

For you see our darkest hour
That leaves us all to cower
Rarely ever comes at night
It attacks when the day is bright
So sleeping with that gun under your pillow
Won't stop the winds of change that billow

In my thoughts  I scream
don't look at me
no
don't look at me
no
don't look at me the outside -- serene

In my head I dread
Inside my head I dread
Please don't look at me
don't look at me
you're looking at the living dead.

Where do we go when no one knows
where we are?

In my thoughts I scream.
Don't look at me.

I know I have to let you go,
For the reasons I don't know...
Does love always have to be logical?
If so, why do they say it's magical...
We are miles apart and,
time is like running sand.
I don't know if I'll see you again, And would it be a loss or gain?
Sometimes, it's like I'm giving up all...
The rising hopes for you suddenly fall!
My mind drifts away to somebody else...
But my heart screams out at the mess.
Late at night, when the moon is full and shiny,
And I'm alone, I wonder about my destiny!
What it would be really at the high time
It's like tossing to get head or tail of a dime!
Should I then really let go...?
Only thinking about it is, painful oh!
I simply don't know and it ain't fair...
Like an unheard voice, hung in mid-air.

We are all beings of self destruction
May it be small
Or may it be big
There is no difference

War is coming
Prepare youself
For when it comes
We are all doomed

Death and dismay
Suffering and damnation
All these things
To come in time

The world dying
We do not see
The life is fleeting
Yet we do not care

Open your eyes
See what really is
Gaze upon the destruction
We have created

The deaths we've caused
The lives we ruined
The hell that is to come
And the grace we long forgotten

Though it may seem abysmal
We gaze through the debris
To see the glory
We use to be

I see trouble on the way.  
I see evil coming out to play.

I see doubt in your eyes, I've been counting all your lies.
I feel chaos as the wind blows, how it began nobody knows.

Your so far yet so close, this is not the life you would have chose.

Snow falls on blood covered stones, I felt it deep down in my bones.
I need to move, I need to go above the clouds I hear the crows.

In the distance, the bodies froze, as the smell of death hits my nose.

Look at the mess you made, think of the price you paid.

Are you strong or are you afraid, don’t you know you're going to fade you can't hide in the shade, do you feel betrayed?

Somethings been screaming in my head, someone's been sleeping in my bed.
Trapped by my mind, I've been walking around blind.

How many chances will I get, how many memories will I forget.  

Into the unknown I jump, don't look back it's just a bump.

Am I ready for what's to come, I let it all go and bang the drum.

It was a cloudy summer day,sitting alone all day.
Memories  come flooding back, the walls I built slowly start to crack.

All my pain, fear and doubt start to drip out.

What happened? I hear a whisper.
What happened to your dreams?
drowning silently in your screams.

What happened to your spirit to your curiosity, you always wanted to leave this city.

What happend to all the things you were going to be.
what happened to all the places you were going to see.

You Promised me you were going to change, pick yourself up and break out of this cage.

You Promised to love again,cause the pain of loss would keep you sane.

But all I see is a Tired soul, desperately trying to climb out of this hole.

Who's trying to keep from breaking down, she wears nothing but a frown.

Someone whose running out of hope,trying but failing to cope.

What am I going to do I beg how do I make it out, how do I become what I thought.

its too late the voice whispers back,your heart is heavy and cold.
Life has passed you by,You look so old.

There is no light at the end of this tunnel your just alone,there's no one to save you you're on your own.

There's a constant battle in my heart,good versus bad the devil versus god.

Don't stop,don't think close your eyes and count to ten now and then,why and when.
All these answers I need to know
All the places I need to go.

Suddenly its all clear can't stay here am suffocating, I need to run i need to
disappear.
I fell Something holding me back,a shadow long and black.

It holds me like the roots holds a tree,it haunts me until my past is all I see.
It pulls me back, my misery starts to stack.
Am broken and alone,am barely holding on am on my own.
I've lost my courage and pride, I started fighting for the other side.

He wispers in my ears breaks me down into tears,In the blink of an eye years have gone by.

Each year I lost a little part of me, I close my eyes and count to three,
One, two, three run till you can't see.
Run as fast as you can don't stop for any man, Hurry grab the key keep running your almost free.

Take this from my heart,take it all away am moving on am leaving today.

Gray sky one little lie.
Can we just call it a tie.
Confused scared out of my head,the seasons change standing on the edg.

I just don't know what to do,you say you love me well I love you too.

Your love is poison but I can't let go,even knowing all that I know.

one look from you and I'm yours, what's got a hold of me is there a cure.

won't you help me get out of his skin?
won't you help me right this sin?

Every day every night, thoughts of you fill my mind.

tick tock the time goes, am waiting standing on my toes .

Given you everything i got, and nothing is what you brought.

I think that we agree, its time for you to set me free.

I hear the devil knocking on my door,trying to break me down and take my soul.

I hear the devil knocking on my door,
oh Lord I feel so alone.

He's playing with my mind, went to sleep woke up blind.

He's ripped me inside out, been Hang and been dried.

The fire burns my soul it cries,my Hart it burns my world it dies.

He's made me believe all his lies.

Tears are streaming down my face, but no one can save me from his embrace.

The devil is knocking me down, its too late he's already won.
