You never even paused to think of me
Or how your actions would reflect on my life
You pushed me out, a young and naive kid with no help, just fed me to the fire
I was burnt, charred, from the world I was forced into
I was burnt, scorched by the life I was made to live
I've been trying so hard to prove I can be what I've always said
To show the world that I'm not weak, that I have the fortitude to make it, to pave my own path
It's been so hard, and I've fallen so many times
But I've gotta get up, and make my way through this life without your fucking help
I'm fine without you
You did nothing for me
I'm alive, no thanks to you
You did nothing for me
I'll spend my life knowing who I am is from what I proved to myself I could be

These iron sights are all I can see
Looking down the barrel of an enemy
They shoot to kill, they're coming after me
And while I fight for my life that's right in front of my eyes, I try to make sense of hypocrisy
Firing bullets from a silver tongue, dripping poison, viscous venom
like a deadly drug
I am not the only one to be a victim of the world I came from
I am not the only one to be a victim of the world I came from
I am not the only one
For everyone who ever felt like they were hopeless
Like their walls were caving in
You are not alone, you can stand and fight
You don't have to toss and turn every sleepless night
And the scars of the broken ones will mend, and they can try again
Hatred breeds hatred, open up your eyes
See the ones you've always victimized
We will no longer only sit and hide
We are here now, so welcome to your demise

Screaming just to drown out the voices in my head
Might be better off dead all pumped up full of lead
Maybe it's me, I'm being dramatic but if you cross me you'll regret it when your skull is shattered
Give up on the path that you've chosen, your hope is gone and your bone, they're all broken
You're only waiting on a second chance, but after everything you did you weren't worth a glance
I know what keeps you up at night, and I know where you sleep
There's something you can't tell anyone, there's a secret you're keeping
I know what keeps you up, I know where you sleep
I could recreate the nightmares, I could still pretend that I care
You'll run and hide, from a beast that you created
You'll run and hide, while you body is still shaking
You better pray, pray for forgiveness, because god's the only one who can save you now
You better pray(I could recreate the nightmares)
You better pray(I could still pretend that I care)
I want so badly just to never speak to you, you gave me nothing, what do I even owe you
You said you'd rather be alone
You said you'd rather be alone
I will erase everything you've ever loved
I will empty out your heart and your souls
I can take away your pain but I'll replace it with something much, much worse
Replaced with something worse

There's a moment after sleep takes you to your dreams
Where you thought you'd be safe from the creature I've grown to be
But I'm always returning, never stopping
And I've been searching for solace for far too long, I've come so close to it
I've given everything, it's taken everything
I, no longer can hope for returning
Lost in all of this strife we've been through
I'm not the man I once was, this shell is no longer empty
He's lost in the shadow on me
Lost in the shadow of my former self
Don't you ever forget me, time is always leaving
We can see this through, we can see this through
Don't you ever forget me, time is always leaving
We can see this through, we can see this through
I'll wait inside your dreams
I will be the face you see when you're asleep
You will hear my voice
I'll wait inside your dreams
I will be the face you see when you're asleep
You will hear my voice
I'll be your terror in the endless night
Don't you ever forget me, time is always leaving
We will see this through, we will see this through

This dark that drags me down is not all in my head
I need a fucking reason to move on through this
Bullshit life's put me through, oh god when will it end
What else can you put me through, why god why
Pain stemming from my delusions
Love lost inside this empty soul
Hate brewing in my blackened eyes
Hope seeping through self-made wounds
And I wish, you were here to save me but I know you cant
And I know I can save myself, but I wish for an end
Done with the pain, now come close, it's my time now
Hurt into hate
It's your turn, feel what I did, suffer by my hand, drown in your pain
Eye's pitch black, sanity lost
Set my sights, on your life
We are all alone in this room
Blades tearing at your flesh, mangling your body, you're screaming for an end
