Descending
What am I doing here, I know I don’t belong
You’ve led me down the path to my own oblivion
My presence is tainted, my name is wasted
All along I’ve strayed to where I never belong
All along I’ve strayed to the darkest depths
These shadows just a reminder of what I’ve done
This knowledge of never belonging, never existing
I turn away from the light, the truth – an overpowering presence
I turn away from the light, into this presumed darkness
No one will help me from this phase of my despair
No one will help me get out of this place,
I must find my own way
I must find my own way out
(Will this...be the end of me?)
Turn away from the light
(Will this...be the end of me?)
Turn away from those who care
(Will this...be the end of me?)
Turn away from yourself
(Will this...be the end of me?)
Turn away from the world!
What am I doing here, I know I don’t belong
Over the years you seem to have stapled my eyes shut
So I can’t see the tracks in front of me
My presence is denied, my name will forever be cursed
My presence is tested and tried; my name will forever be lost
Failure and denial – a cycle that I will endure until I’m gone
I turn away from everything that I’ve never known
As everything has become jaded and faded, over time
No one can tear me away from the goals I’ve set
My mind is a trap – once you get in, you’ll never get out
No one can bring me back from the depths
These depths that I’ve been in for so many years
I’m searching for something to erase this pain inside of me
Memories are just a reminder of what could’ve been
So I must seek you out myself
I must seek you out myself
(Will this...be the end of me?)
Turn away from the light
(Will this...be the end of me?)
Turn away from those who care
(Will this...be the end of me?)
Turn away from yourself
(Will this...be the end of me?)
Turn away from the world?)
What am I doing here?
(Will this...be the end of me?)
What am I doing here?
(Will this...be the end of me?)
What am I doing here?
(Will this...be the end of me?)
WHAT AM I DOING HERE!?
(Will this...be the END OF ME!?)
I seem to be shifty in my gaze,
The targets I want to aim for –
What am I really aiming for?
But never seem to find the right weapon
Are you my angel in disguise?
Have you come to rescue me?
My beseecher?
My destroyer?
I seem to be shifty in my gaze,
Focusing upon this fallacy rather than reality,
What am I really doing here?
But never seem to find the answer
Are you my angel in disguise?
Have you come to lead me to a better place?
What am I doing here, I don’t really know
I’ve believe you told that I do not belong
But the words will never match the look in your eyes,
The deceit that you hold deep inside
But the words will never match the look in your eyes,
The regret that you will never disguise
The words alone are just a reminder,
Of what could have been
The words alone are just a reminder,
Of what pain I’m keeping inside
But if denial lingers where I’ve been,
What borders I’ve crossed –
Then how can you deny my right to live?
I know of all these things I’ve said and done
It’s true – I’m the unholy one!
What am I doing here?
(Will this...be the end of me?)
What am I doing here?
(Will this...be the end of me?)
What am I doing here?
(Will this...be the end of me?)
WHAT AM I DOING HERE!?
(Will this...be the END OF ME!?)
And if I descend – can I go any further, can I last any longer?
My will is breaking, my mind is breaking, my heart is breaking
WILL THIS BE THE END OF ME!?
My mind is wandering what you’ve done for me
And I can’t find enough reason to save you this time around
I’ll turn around and walk away (learn to be me again)
And nothing can stop the tides breaking down the walls again
You want to be something so more than yourself
Why can’t you realise that you’ll never be yourself?
You’ve put me in the firing line for so long
That I believe I’ll never be free from this attack again,
I’ve become used to all the explosions all around me
My mind oblivious to all this catatonic destruction
My mind hates the fact that you control me
My mind hates the fact that you have me on this hook
And I can’t find enough reason to seize my only chance to break away
I’ll break free from the fingers that grip my throat,
And will to choke the life from me
You want to own more than you can imagine
Why can’t you realise that you’ll never own me?
You’ve held me in limbo; I’m at your discretion
I believe I won’t ever escape from your grip
I will never escape from this grip you’ve held on me
You want to be something more than yourself
Why can’t you realise that you’ll never be brought off the shelf?
And if I descend – can I go any further, can I last any longer?
My mind is breaking, my mind is breaking, my heart is broken
WILL THIS BE THE END OF ME!?
THE END OF ME!?
