Take a step, in the ground, you believer
See the light of the past grow weaker
Break the ties, from the ones that betrayed
There is no one left to save
Trust your heart, dream of love and then it’s taken
What you thought came to life, left you broken
You gave yourself, received a gift so tainted
Now it’s one mess for the making
The pain inside you grows
Release it from the world you know
Take it down; strap it up in your final judgement
You hear it laughing, yet its mouth stays frozen
Pour the gas, light the match, salvation's closer
It is the fear that brings you closure
The pain inside you grows Release it from the world you know
A gift from the one that you hate, is a symbol of your one last mistake?
You can leave it to rot or let your instincts guide you?
Time grows short, seconds draw, why are you waiting?
You done right, now been wronged, Tension courses
Through your mind, you’re out of options.
It is time for the unmaking?
There it sits, in your room, in peace waiting,
Broken pieces, a reminder unforgotten.
Take it down, to a place, no one will hear.
Your gift, to do as you care.
The pain inside you grows Release it for the grandest show.
I gave you my heart, the very essence of my being
But it didn’t make you stay
I couldn’t make you see me
I believed every word
Every promise in your lies
Now I need you to remind me, what it is to feel alive
I’m convinced that there’s no way out
From the fate that I deserve
I feel as though I’m changing now
I’m not sure that you know me
I sit Comfortable within this pain
I would love for you to join me
Let your betrayal be my release
One final salute to your deceit
Let there be solace within these flames
This is all for you
Take it down; strap it up in your final judgement
You hear it laughing, yet its mouth stays frozen
Pour the gas, light the match, salvation's closer.
It is the fear that brings you closure.
The pain inside you grows
Release it from the world you know.
A gift from the one you hate
It is yours to do what you say,
Watch it all burn away
In eternal flames
Watch it all burn away
