My body's slipping off the deep end while my mind is trying to climb a ladder that's been sabotaged
All because I slipped up from the right path and now the devil's trying to attack me along with his entourage
My lens used to be crystal but now light reaches nowhere near my retina leaving my eyes opaque
And every word I utter I begin to regret because its only giving me a toothache
I look back along the lines trying to retrace my steps only to see all these mistakes
Noticing that there is so much sin stacked up that I'm running out of clean plates
But now that I know where I went wrong must back to a go perilous journey that only seems like a loop hole
Because I start to fix myself back to normal but only to realize I'm only moving further away from my goal
Its pointless trying to fix a record that's been scratched and can only keep replaying back
The same old lines that stop me from reaching the end of the track
And now I'm just trying to find the perfect mixture to cancel out the darkness lying within my mind
Because no matter how much warnings I get I always try to dodge the signs
And fall into the enemy's trap straying me away from the sacred message that I held dear
Leaving to live me with one terrifying fear
Which is the fear that I can never return to the right path and that I'll always live alone
Now I must wait and all my joy must be postponed
Because the undying sadness lying within me never seems to leave
Which is the reason why I can never com-promise myself and the life I grieve
With all these problems making my eyes weep
I know I'm On The Edge Of A Promise I Can't Keep
