1.
Standing over the precipice Gazing over the bottomless darkness Taking the leap of faith Crashing down at the bottom Look at the walls as they come tumbling down You lived your life in a colorful dream Convince yourself what you say is the truth It’ll all explode back as lies Came in like a lamb ripe for the slaughter Never really thunk much for yourself So easy to see how this will play out before our eyes Howl and scream that the fiction is truth You’ve got blind faith and I’ve got my solace
2.
Another apology just to clean up your guilty conscience Speak up like you have conviction for once in your life Instead of taking the blame just in attempts to absolve it You know what you did right from the start and you're guilty as charged Guilty as every last one Black and white words now smeared to grey Back against the wall squirming for mercy You always bring pain and now enough is enough Spilling your guts in fevered apologies A useless attempt to earn back your trust The time has come Enough is enough foul beast I'll strike you down with pure force
3.
Seen it from the start The slow decline of strength Fragile existence of living always in the balance The sun beats down hot and now the ice is thinning Sinking below the surface the suffering becomes terminal Fragile existence Possessing the burden Nothing pains worse than watching the ones you love hurt
4.
Words spoken so neutral up until now Drawing the line - now stand behind it Can’t stand the pressure weighing down All just because the fear hides behind your eyes and its tearing away at your soul Nothing to do to forget the pain I feel it inside my bones Its all because you made a stupid mistake Hide your pride with fear and shame Can’t stand the pressure weighing down Hang your head until its bowing to me
5.
It's happening now... Countless brushes with loss and suffering Experienced by the hands of your loved ones Calloused hands bruised body and withered soul Blind faith to tape over the pain Fear finally replaces the word you call faith Looking up to the ceiling At the cage that I am inside Flames and ash churn overhead Raining embers down on my face A mental blockade meant to be bulletproof Finally canonized
