Well, can you tell me now?
Is it too much already?
Can I put down the cross?
Look at me, shhh, listen to the sound
My body is losing the final round

Embrace the cold kiss of a memory,
The freefall of my heart
Ravage that empty space,
Deep down there you should find your face

Your eyes forever stabbed by the light
That will never ignite the stars
A one-way ticket is in your pockets now
But baby, you’re trapped within your vow,
Poisoning those parts of me you once kept alive

You were once my free pass to paradise,
Giving birth to a feeling I just can’t define
Life never felt more meaningful
Than upon the collision of our eyes

Guess it’s time to crack this hollow shell
More than ever hearing the ring of the bell;
Looking up above, seeing my soul in a mirror
Are you still sure it was worth it?
Taking that fieldtrip into my mind,
Knowing it would leave Heaven colorblind

Dear Lord,
I wish to confess
The ghastly sin by which
I have signed my own death warrant

I’ve been charging along this path
Even though the wall you built
Has been standing firm
For some time now

I pride myself on not being a quitter
Though that might be my downfall
Constructing my own web of shame,
Forever refusing the blame

Blasting through the whirlwind of phases
Equipped with the most lethal of my weapons,
Always ready to defeat my own victories

We’re running out of choices, my friend
Or perhaps our choices are running out of patience
Therefore, I plead you one last time
To rise up and take a stand
For our wounds are getting ever harder to mend

So look in my eyes,
Fulfill my final wish
All you have to do is sit and talk
We’ll battle through the memories
Take on the fiercest of our demons
And with the final ray of sunshine,
At last, we’ll know
Who shall live to tell the tale

Welcome everyone
To the manifestation of my final cry
I beg you to care one last time
For today is my final try

Can you even see?
There still exists a little stain called Me
Ready for a fight that never came,
Caught in my own trap when you left

Oh, my heart, look in my eyes today
So that they can be proud during their closing,
Knowing they were defeated by perfection

Oh, my soul, let my eardrums hear your voice
Before you walk away, making me believe in my choice
Drowned by the music I was never destined to hear

Oh, my life, give up on me once and for all
This time I surrender, it’s time to answer the call
With details from beyond




Late tonight,
When my eyes meet your face once more
Then, I plead you, cut my anchor
And send me along the endless shore

Kissed by death so many times
Well, today I’m kissing it back
Although, even then I won’t be free
For your existence will drag me from the grave;
Can I really abandon the one I need to save?

Okay, you can stop sighing now,
I’m pulling the plug,
Retracting my wings
Maybe one day I’ll be acknowledged
By the church bell’s rings

Find me
To encounter a turnaround
Sharper and deadlier
Than your betrayal

Allowing my whole being
To be powered by hate
For only then shall I save my soul
From getting snatched by you
For eternity

My brain is fighting this war in vain
Installing resentment as the rightful ruler
Of my spirit
Represents a feat bound to fail

All of a sudden, the mist clears
And you take back your place
Shining even brighter than I remember,
You take away my freedom of choice
In a split second, my last stand sits down
Approaches the chains, into their firm embrace
Existence adopts your shape
Forever

But until the capitulation,
In the face of the looming eclipse
I shall savor the fight;
Indulgence in the illusion of my salvation
Becomes my final earthly trace

So, what’s up?
Can’t you hear me calling for you?
The bells have rung for the final time,
Signalling the death of our immortality

Years have passed,
But the guilt in my eyes is eternal
Don’t worry, I see the question in your look
“Can we put up a fight?”
No, it’s my turn to do what’s right
My words will hurt,
And the memory of you will be let go

So, what’s down?
The ears of my soul deaf to your helpless cry
Oh, now you wanna try?
Where were you during the eclipse of my mind?

Days have passed,
But the demeanor of your walk is fascinating,
Aching to start a war we’ve already lost
“Did we put up a fight?”
Yes, it’s your turn to confess to the truth
Your words will lie,
And all hope we ever had will die

Your eye
Is the reason why hopes die,
Why souls melt
So look in the mirror,
You’ll know how I felt

Your smile,
Leaves a trace so vile,
The sticks and stones of my shame
Bringing me down,
Away from the game
I’m hitting the ground,
For you never gave me a bonus round

So tell me, love,
Did I ever matter?
Or was I just another heart to shatter?
Looking up at the sky,
It’s your face that I find
But wait!
It’s all in my mind

Your hands,
The shields that hid my fears,
Pushed me away,
Another test subject for tears
I wanna forget you oh so bad,
But then I remember
All the blood you made me shed

Come back, honey,
Bring me down for good;
Walking along the hallways of my despair,
I don’t wanna get up again
You don’t have to say a single word
It’s enough to give me a look
And I’ll be let off the hook

You were the beginning,
You will be the end
I said I’d heal,
Who did I kid?
Well done, love,
You took another soul!
This is my train
To bury my brain
See you in hell.

Within the black,
Drowned by yesterday,
You'll find the withered remains,
Of what was once a champion of hope

When the Sun shines,
Even the rain tends to wear a pleasant perfume
Deceiving you long enough
For the tendrils of hell
To break through the gates

You watch as the clouds grow ever darker
Ever denser
The rain turns acid
Your plans' warm smiles
Turn into cackles that blow your resolve away

Why,
Why is it always you?
The Sun shrugs lazily as it strolls off
A rainshower may do you good
It may destroy the stains that follow you

Destruction is an ally
A powerful one at that
It empowers and it sustains
And when you look away
Finally sensing survival
It rips out your life support

What is this?
A black robe ordained with knives?
Now nobody can touch you
Get near you
You've never been looked up to before
Look how wide the cackle is now
Look,
They fear you


Within the black,
Drowned by yesterday,
You'll find the withered remains,
Of what was once a champion of hope
