Rise from the ashes once more Lift yourself each time you fall Let the strength within you be restored And take a hold of what you think is yours You are free to explore And leave your demons to be ignored Heal the wounds with a course of time Help yourself Hey you’re lost in the shadow Hey you’re drowning in sorrow Heal the wounds with a course of time Lay to rest memories that can not die Free yourself from the guilt you feel inside And learn true meaning of what is pride You must fight for your life Forgive the ones who left you to die Lay to rest the memories that can not die Save yourself Hey you’re lost in the shadow Hey you’re drowning in sorrow And so the damage is done Now see look what you’ve done Hey you’re lost in the shadow Hey you’re drowning in sorrow Hey the damage is done Hey look what you’ve done Yeah you’re lost in my shadow Yeah I’m feeling your sorrow

Trapped like a lion in this cage I move in circles drive myself insane You hold the key to my escape Heaven is an empty space when all you feel is rage Bent down and broken till my spirit breaks You alone can free me from this loneliness and pain I long for you now what will it take You alone can set me free and wash my sins away I'm chasing your lies You're leaving me to die How dare you let me wait in vein Because of you I wear these chains Where were you you said you'd lead the way Because of you I've lost my way I'm chasing your lies You're leaving me to die How dare you let me wait in vein Because of you I wear these chains Where were you you said you'd lead the way Because of you I've lost my way I'm chasing your lies You're cheating on life You're leaving me to die You're leaving me to die How dare you let me wait in vein Because of you I wear these chains Where were you you said you'd lead the way Because of you I've lost my way How dare you let me wait in vein Because of you I wear these chains Where were you you said you'd lead the way Because of you I've lost my way Just a lion in a cage Just a lion in a cage Just a lion in a cage Just a lion in a cage

If I pretend to be your friend I am your enemy in disguise And all your strengths that still reside I will be the one who makes you cry Welcome to the dark side of my mind No angels here to make things right The devils tongue he whispers in my ear No angels here to save me from my fears The hand that feeds indeed will bleed With every chance I will take a bite Forever more rest assured I am a test which you shall fail once more Welcome to the dark side of my mind No angels here to make things right The devils tongue he whispers in my ear No angels here to save me from my fears Welcome to the dark side of my mind No angels here to make things right The devils tongue he whispers in my ear No angels here to save me from my fears Forever more rest assured I am a test which you shall fail once more I am a test which you shall fail once more I am a god who shall love you no more

My Brain 06:31
Show me how to live a life That's pure, simple and free And I will try to live a life That's humble and in peace Show me how to rid myself From all that is not clean And wash my mouth from the bitter taste Which burns from the words that I speak Show me how to see the world What justice can really mean For the world I see is full of hate And destroys any love that I feel Help me undo what I have done All I can do is hit and run Something’s standing in the way I know I need to change The record goes on and on And I ask myself Is there something wrong with my brain Help me understand myself And I'll be a better man And take the world for what it is And rest my mind at last Maybe one day things will change But till then I'm buried in the sand Cos a bitter man is a lonely man And a lonely life he’ll live Help me undo what I have done All I can do is hit and run Something’s standing in the way And I know I need to change The record goes on and on And I ask myself Is there something wrong with my brain

See me now Can you blind me It’s over now You’ve destroyed me I’m broken now Can you fix me please If I beg you now Will you return to me Give me strength So I can finally say I rid myself Of your face and your name Hear me now My voice is bleeding Touch me now Feel me burning I’m hurting now I’m left with nothing but a scar Fuck you now You ripped my whole world apart Give me strength So I can finally say I rid myself Of your face and your name I’m haunted be the ghost of you Give me strength So I can finally say I rid myself Of your face and your name

Storm Clouds 10:44
When the sky above is falling And I fall on black days Stay the hell away from me my friend I’m trapped in this dark place When your lost confined to the shadows Of the very depths of your mind It’s hard enough to try and please yourself Let alone to try and make things right When the rage within takes over What should one do Every now and then you hurt the ones you love And then pray for the wrongs you do Just the like the wind As it starts to change Storm clouds are coming once again When your fears and doubts cloud over And tears fill your eyes You drown yourself in desperate sorrow In the river that you've cried And if my anger I feel inside Makes you uneasy Makes you wanna cry Find yourself shelter Find somewhere to hide Storm clouds are coming once again Just the like the wind As it starts to change Storm clouds are coming once again
