time wastes away
and leaves me alone
see the decay
as flesh tears from bone
can you find me
all covered in dust?
How can this be?
victim of death's lust
how many nights do I have to bleed?
defenseless while all my demons feed
only in death will I find rest
exhausted from failing all life's tests
they forced me into solitude
when all I wanted was the truth
their lies pierce and murder me
lay me down for an endless sleep
how many nights do I have to bleed?
defenseless while all my demons feed
only in death will I find rest
exhausted from failing all life's tests
Lay me down and bury me
just make me a memory
my feelings are sacrifice
just kill me and give me life
how many nights do I have to bleed?
defenseless while all my demons feed
only in death will I find rest
exhausted from failing all life's tests
how many nights do I have to bleed?
defenseless while all my demons feed
only in death will I find rest
exhausted from failing all life's tests
Lay me down and bury me
just make me a memory
my feelings are sacrifice
just kill me and give me life
