I saw you standing there all crying all alone
The tyrant in your life that you could not dethrone
When did you become such a poor lost soul
When did you lose all control
I see it as an old lost tale
One that repeats silently beneath the veil
From the depths of hell you came
Into this never ending repeat frame
You never really ever understood
Why people didn't try when they could
You hated to see them make a wrong choice
And forever they will lay without a voice
You tried to reach out with love
All you received was a push and a shove
This world it doesn't care
About what is right and what is fair
Those are meaningless things in this day and age
Everyone is filled with greed, lust, and rage
So we will forever just sit here and burn
Waiting on the final return
The day we that we leave this life
Get away from all of our strife
You are a fool deep down inside
You don't even know with who to confide
No matter what is going on inside your head
Remember that when you lay down in bed
Being alive is privilege and a gift
Denied to many as they fall into the rift
I don't care about your past
It doesn't start you in last
But who you are today
That is how you should determine your way
Look around and see who you are
And you'll see me standing from afar
Waiting for you give it your all
When you plunge under and take the fall
That is when I shall take your pain
And make it into my own gain
I will drag you down straight back to hell
And remind you of the pain when you fell
Forever and ever will I torment your soul
In a deep dark never ending hole
So go ahead and cry
I won't tell you another lie
No one will hear
No one will tear
This is your last story
Where are those blazes of glory?
