You've found yourself in the mirror In the eyes that won't betrayed If I let you bleed, will you suffer the same? In the smile that was hopeless In the sorrow that no one sees If I let you breathe, you will suffer the same. The constant state of being What you are and are not supposed to be These are memories in the truths of the lies Too beguiled, alone, and afraid To see that you actually are me And we’ve done everything to end us tonight With the hand you've called for me And without voice, you summon the rest "If we will let you bleed, we'll suffer the same." But you've marked yourself indifferent Yet we're the ones to shoulder blame "But we let you bleed so you won't suffer the same." The nine souls misled from deception Will be your fears and mistakes We live in the chambers of your shattered mind And in the nights that you will see us You will no longer be afraid Because we are the same in body, soul, and mind © 2014

Faulty Saviors (Alt. 1)
You've found yourself in the mirror In the eyes that won't betrayed If I let you bleed, will you suffer the same? In the smile that was hopeless In the sorrow that no one sees If I let you breathe, you will suffer the same. The constant state of being What you are and are not supposed to be These are memories in the truths of the lies Too beguiled, alone, and afraid To see that you actually are me And we’ve done everything to end us tonight With the hand you've called for me And without voice, you summon the rest "If we will let you bleed, we'll suffer the same." But you've marked yourself indifferent Yet we're the ones to shoulder blame "But we let you bleed so you won't suffer the same." The nine souls misled from deception Will be your fears and mistakes We live in the chambers of your shattered mind And in the nights that you will see us You will no longer be afraid Because we are the same in body, soul, and mind © 2014
