lyrics by Jeremy Palaszewski
It's getting complicated
I'm finding it difficult to go
Can't stop the walls from caving in on me
And I'm still finding out
Only if you understood
You would see you'd know by now
Things aren't quite so good
Why can't you understand me
Only if I could find it
Seems miles away
Only if I could have it
My independence day
It's funny how we always end
A stalemate on and on and on
Can't put the past behind me
You're still talking nonsensical
Only if we understood
Each other you'd know by now
Oh how I wish you could
Why can't you understand it
Only if I could find it
Seems miles away
Only if I could have it
My independence day
Floating up
I'm floating high up far into the stars
Below I feel it beneath me give away
Earth below I feel around me
Echoes of the world dissolve
This feels like a dream now
Then it calls
And it feels so real
And then light fades away
Darkness pulls me away
I'm falling into nowhere
I can't see anything
I want it over now
Higher now
I'm high above the stars light years away
Alone this must be a dream now until I feel
Terrified I'm falling fast down into the abyss
The Void is calling me into somewhere else
And it knows my name then my soul slips away
Darkness pulls me away
I'm falling into nowhere
I can't see anything
I want it over now
Death comes knocking again
I'm falling into darkness
I can't feel anything
I guess it's over now
Falling into nothing
Feel my soul now
Slipping away
Tell me we're moving on
Nothing can change the way I feel about you now
So I'm told now every night I'm watching
As days fall closer and closer
While we both are here to stay
We again must part to save
Something we have made that's built to last
Now we go in opposite direction
Resurrect those walls that we have both erected
Out and into grey we're on stand-by once again
Tell me anything just don't
Tell me we're moving on
Nothing can change the way I feel about you
Tell me oh I thought you knew
I'll be away but you'll be with me always
Believe me when I say this I mean it
As time takes forever I'll wait
For the day we both arrive to the climax of our lives
And that's good to know
Though I'll be leaving you
We'll carry on and into shades of grey again
Facing what was said
Looking back when
All that's left to do for us is look ahead
So tell me anything but just don't
Tell me we're moving on
Nothing can change the way I feel about you
Tell me oh I thought you knew
I'll be away but you'll be with me always
I'll be there all the way beside you in the dark
We'll watch the sunrise from the storm
And when the rain of your despair became
to much to bear
You left me
Please tell me
Where did you go, Where did you go
Where did you put your heart this time around
Did it go sour from sweet
Where did you go, Where did you go
Where did you put your soul that can't be found
I don't know where it could be
Maybe somewhere at the crossroads
Where our dreams and fears reside
Where someday we can surely find
And as you slowly made your way across the room
You turned your back I looked away
The cheap thrill fame instilled
Meant more than the friend you had
I don't understand
Where did you go, Where did you go
When did you cash your soul in for the gold
To buy esteem
I hope it was worth it all
Worst of all
When you walked out on my trust you stole
A little piece of my own
Blood and tears that I poured
Into what was once now feels in vain
I wonder can you feel my pain
The first times
The magic, the memories, the regret
The dreams, the hardships
That old friend back then was
The best that I ever had
Now there's no turning back
Once upon a time you told me that your heart
was in it's place
I guess it slipped as with your pride did
How unfortunate
A story ending sorely in the sense you chose
To take the easiest way out
It's over now
Here lies the one who fought for cause
Made hero in the wake of all the loss
When age of old and tired eyes
Takes place of all the life that's held inside
One step away
Unscathed untainted love
Falls victim to the violence it becomes
And it left you out, betrayed you
Now it all ends
One moment's courage to bear
Stretched out laid out in the red
Where's the love
Has hopelessness taken its toll
{I bleed with you}
Here I am
One breath of life left in my soul
{I give it to you}
One destiny a way of means to end
One razor length away from blade to skin
It's calling out, It wants me
I need again
One last request for a reason to live
Where's the love
Has hopelessness taken its toll
{I bleed with you}
Here I am
One breath of life left in my soul
I give it to you
Death in numbers fallen for you
Once more again
Can't stop the bleeding
It won't stop it won't stop
What's left of anything
They're what's left so what's left
Can't waste a place to be
Six feet under it all
Call forth the pain parade
Wave it on just wave it on
Comeback to me enter the ghost of a loved one
I still see her silhouette
I took the seasons for granted now I'm alone
Somebody save me from losing it
What's your ideal woman can you say
Leave it to me
We're going to find you a candidate
Just wait and see for the audition
Think you all can just runaway with love
My sadomasochistic
Make us fail like the other ones you've done
Now drain the pain of my sick
Though I never was ever unhappy
Your agony betrays your lies
It's cause all I ever could feel was bad
These words cut through meat and bone
Hello my love, I waited today for your call
Please be alarmed how I can behave
I've been abused, my family tree roots into hell
But I can keep you warm... with my pain
I'll be the only one you can love
You're all the same
I'll bring you into my oblivion
Deeper, deeper now you understand
These words cut through meat and bone
Long days have been thereafter
Inching forward closer into the fires
Of self-indulgence of an empire wasted
Outside it's falling from it's grace
Is this all we have to show
The falling of a dynasty of sacred
Out of past into unkown
It's in the cards but it's out of my hands
Bleeding dry of any truth and any substance
Drowned out and left to make us beg
For something more than a thrill instantaneous
The white noise paints us black again
Is this all we have to show
The falling of a dynasty of sacred
Out of past into unkown
It's in the cards but it's out of my hands
Faded now behold I stand before a dim lit sky
Only time now can tell me of a way I can find
Some methodical procedure that can fill my soul
Empty out the blackness and fill the hole
Get me back on axis and out of the cold
Leave me now to bring back the days of old
How can we go so easily from classics
To all times of low
No shame to show only our greed
Taking the life from our own
Bloodflow that once fueled the fires of all
Every now and then I see it all
For what it's worth
Empties out the blackness and fills the hole
Gets me back on axis and out of the cold
Leaves me now to bring back the days of old
I heard you're listening
You're writing off all of us today
Once inviting
You're trying to push us away
Don't try and play the innocent guy
And then say hi to me
'Cause I can see right through it all
And it's a brand new day
And you're in my way
I made a big mistake
Trusting so easily
Now awaiting
You're taking advantage of your own
Friends who trusted
Disgusted by your actions alone
Now you try and bite the hand
That feeds your insincerity
Now your own greed
Is the only thing that you can see
And it's a brand new dy
And you're in my way
I made a big mistake trusting so easily
And if you think that I am gonna stand aside
You've got a big surprise thinking I'll fall in line
I won't fall in line
Now you're wasted
You're making it all come down to this
Taking all of you're proud of
And then selling out to it
Wake up, call upon the ears of all
See how water left behind the salt
Construed out of pain to heal the wounds
One truth left behind to us from you
You were taken
Hero of my world undone
Laid to rest now
We count days to nights and weeks to years
Without wait a moment for the pain
Sit down watch the damage do its deed
And see how what you do you do to me
Even though I missed the day you were taken
Heroes of our world undone
Laid to rest now
Done with whatever life can bring
Taken away
Laid to rest forever
Turn me on and face me to the world
Back me up far enough
So I can watch and learn how I'm supposed to be
Through these eyes in my head
Life begins the wheels start to spin around
Don't live in fantasies
Just be on your way
Here's a list of all your priorities
Make us proud to say:
We're the parents of a good machine
Keep your eyes straight ahead
Take your vitamins like we said
You'll be fine
I guess your first test is to see how you can fit in
Finally I feel like I'm alive
I was nothing but a dream in disguise
I was silent before now I finally get to say
How I see it all so strange
My destiny is on a timeline with fate
Let me dream awhile
For the chance of a life to be
Nine to five now systems overload
Just trying to get by living in the mode:
Work first then find the time
To drink it away
To try and hide depressions of my days
Now I'm fine
But the dirt in my ale is at the bottom of every pint
Finally I feel like I'm alive
I was dying on the inside out
I was silent today now I finally get to say
How I've been feeling so strange
I've been dancing on a wire with fate
They can cramp my style but they can't take it away
Finally I feel like I'm alive
I was dying on the inside out
I was silent for years now I finally get to say
How I've been feeling so strange
I've been dancing on a wire with fate
They can cramp my style
But they can't take it away
Out on a one way street again
I'm taking fire in each direction
Can't see the light down at the end
It's getting cold and there's no action
Maybe it's the only way
Anyone can live life day to day
Fight to see through the rain
You'll be alright take it easy
Don't let these hardships bring you down
Because times like these will come around
Believe me things will be ok
I'm taking heat from all around
I'm given no respect for reverie
Can't find a truth without a doubt
Sorrow's arms are now around me
Maybe I should abandon what I said
Maybe I should quit while I'm ahead
To get out of this hole I'm in
You'll be alright take it easy
Don't let these hardships bring you down
Because times like these will come around
Believe me things will be ok
You'll see the stars keep shining down
You'll know the world keeps turning 'round
You'll find that time keeps passing by
Along with the chance to try
So why not make it worth your while
And see that life goes on
Believe me things will be ok
Life goes on
