Can you feel it?
Can you hear me?
Can you feel this place get colder every step you take
How can I, How can I keep this from bleeding?
(Keep this from bleeding)
I'm alive! I'm alive!
And I can't seem to find
A reason for being
Why does it feel like I am striving to survive?
All I wanted was to keep it alive
I was wrong
I'm fighting for my life!
I try and try
But nothing ever seems to go right and I can’t deny
I can’t keep up
I’ve been running in place (running in place)
Can't you see, Can't you see?
I'm sweating this disease (I'm sweating this disease)
Can you feel it drag you down?
(I'm not alright)
(I'm not alright)
It’s eating me alive
It's a struggle
I'm holding on to a thread
I'm just about an inch away from the edge
I feel so hopeless and so lifeless
I need a way to escape
Follow, follow
We can guide you
Just don’t let go
Just don’t let go
Follow, Follow
We can guide you
Just don’t let go
Just don’t let go!
Don't let go
Just don't let go
Can't you see, Can't you see?
I'm sweating this disease (I'm sweating this disease)
Can you feel it drag you down?
(I'm not alright)
(I'm not alright)
It’s eating me alive

You're all so crooked
You'd rather take lives than save them
You're all just money grubbing liars
Consuming everything to make yourself feel relevant
Where is the world I thought I’ve come to know
I was once a child with my head soaring high in the sky
Never thought I'd stumble and crawl
Through ditches and dust just to get what I want
Counting dollars is the only thing that matters to us
What now?
What does it mean to be alive?
To consume till we're dead or to live and to thrive
Are we all just wasting our time?
Is this really who you wanted to be?
One by one we tear it down
We’re living on a ball and chain
What makes a price worth spending?
Just to find a moment of peace inside
Can we all just quit pretending?
That it’s fine (It’s fine)
Down to the bone it’s taking its toll
On our tangled souls caught in fire (It's not the same)
It’s not the same as it was yesterday
Used, abused, expendable lives
Forced to work for bare minimum bribes
Just to get by
We've spent plenty of time
Pushing carts for the price of a dime
Everything we've been through has been a living hell
Working paycheck to paycheck
Amounting to nothing
Amounting to nothing!
I feel the life leaving my soul
What makes a price worth spending?
Just to find a moment of peace inside
Can we all just quit pretending?
That it’s fine (it’s fine)
Down to the bone it’s taking its toll
On our tangled souls caught in fire (It's not the same)
It’s not the same as it was yesterday
This is the last time I'll say this again
I will never be your servant
I will never be your slave
You will never control me
I will never submit
Greed tearing down
Everything we knew and loved
How the fuck did we let it get this far?
What makes a price worth spending?
Just to find a moment of peace inside
Can we all just quit pretending?
That it’s fine (It's fine)

I never felt so lost in my own mind
Is this the end of me? It’s dragging me away
Waves above me pushing down
Keeping me still
The vacant eye surrounds me
I can’t breathe the air in here
Can we ever make it out?
Will we ever make it out?
Step by cold step, pace yourself
For the love of god we could use some help
We’re losing ourselves, we are losing our grip
We are losing our grip!
Don’t drink their poison
We can find our way out
These winding paths go a million ways
To keep crown ships made of gold
From the clutches of their underling waves
Stone lungs made for breathing ash
Every broken heart is made to pass
When the smoke clears
We’ll be standing with our heads held high
Oh! We are the new world hope
We are the Kings of Kings
And we will never be like you
I can’t breathe the air in here
Can we ever make it out?
Will we ever make it out?
You think you can tear us down
With your shit excuse for a life
We have one thing to say to you
Go and fuck yourself
Don’t drink their poison, blah
I can’t breathe the air in here
Can we ever make it out?
Will we ever make it out?
We’re so lost (so lost)
But we’ll find a spark

She's always coming back for more
She's a monster disguised as a human being
Out to rid me of my self-respect
To keep me pent up in her crooked hands
How can I keep up with a person like you
You ran me dry with the same old excuse
The only thing important is you and me
But you only cared about yourself instead
She always led me to believe in her lies
Beginning to end with a great fake smile
Counting down the times I had the wool over my eyes
Now I see where I went wrong
Don't come crawling to me
When you're shaking
When you're drinking
You've made me stray away (away)
I won't be going back to you
Never again will I make the mistake
I have better things to do
Then wasting my time with you
I've been eaten alive by what I loved
It has taken control of me
I thought I could handle it
But I couldn't have been anymore wrong
I gave you my life and you drank it
Oh what have you done to me?
I wish I never met you
They said it's better to have loved and lost
It'll flow back and soften the heart
But it's hard to believe
Cause she took everything from me
Crushed and ripped apart
Is just the start of what she did to my heart
I gave her everything and more
And in return she took advantage of me
I won't forgive and forget
You're supposed to be the person I can always count on in the end
But instead you misled
I ask of you to never speak to me again
Couldn't I be right
This game wasn't worth the prize
Maybe in another life
We could've made this happen
For what it's worth
In the time spent trying and lying
I have learned
To appreciate the fire and the burn
Don't come crawling to me
When you're shaking
When you're drinking
You've made me stray away (away)
I won't be going back to you
Never again will I make the mistake
I have better things to do
Then wasting my time with you
I won't be going back to you
I have better things to do
I used to care for a long time
But it's not easy to say who you chosen to be
Why is this so hard? you put up smoke and mirrors
To find out there wasn't even a heart
At the bottom of the bottle is the person
You wanted to be
behind my back I guess it's more important than me
You're self centered
You broke everything we ever had
You're not special
You sold your life for this with nothing left it's haunting me

Pushing their boundaries
I swear that I can reach the highest peaks
I'll climb so high that even dreaming's beneath me
I'll achieve everything that you said I could never be
One step further and you will see
The ones who told you "you would never succeed"
Are the same ones who gave up on their own dreams
And couldn't live up to what they wanted to be
The world can change shapes and bury dreamers in its wake
Seconds passing and we're drifting away
Just don't give in to what they say
Let them say what they want (you're gonna be great)
They left me thinking it was for the best
A misconception claiming that I wasn't worth the time
But I'll show them that I'm not like the rest
Just know my dollar isn't worth your dime
They are broken records skipping through their lives (back and forth)
Never finished what they started
Stuck on repeat, holding back till they're cast in the light
When the road's at its end with regret in their eyes
Eyes are fixated on us
Never thought we could do it
But we're here to prove them wrong
We're not afraid
To dive in the deep end
They always wanted your soul
To make themselves feel achieved
The jealousy is growing more and more each day
I can't tell you how many times
You walked up to me and said
"You'll never make it so why don't you give up"
They left me thinking it was for the best
A misconception claiming that I wasn't worth the time
But now I'll show them what this means to me
While they sit at home and waste away
If you think that you are beaten and worn out
The light's grown dime and the roads have torn apart
If you've lost perspective
And your hearts gone blind
Just walk the path that feels right and you will find
Your way out in better time
I have had it with the attempts
To make me feel insignificant
Your words can plague another soul
This is all I've ever wanted to be
I won't sit here and let you rain your disbelief over me
It always felt like I was running in circles
They said I couldn't but I can and I will, I won't give up so easy
This is my life and I know what it's worth
I'm at the top of the mountain and I will not be leaving

I believed in every word you said
I was blind I didn't see it coming
You were out to get me
And now it all seems so clear you needed someone to blame
Inside these walls I rot
Barely alive
Let me go I'm the innocent one!
I swear I'm innocent!
You left me in a house of sinners
You watched them take me away
From the end of the day to the end of days
You'll find your head on a fucking plate
You had me in the palms of your hands
Oh so red, oh so red
Let me go I'm the innocent one
What the hell did I do to deserve this?
You cast me to the wolves
Their teeth a hold of me
Tearing me limb by limb
I feel the earth beneath my feet
Crumble under a broken me
I'm staring at a hollow reflection
Of the man I used to be
I've become so weak
I can't feel a thing
(How could this happen to me)
I see the devil all around me
Oh god where are you now!
I keep breathing, but I keep needing
A way to keep me alive
You had me in the palms of your hands
Oh so red, oh so red
Let me go I'm the innocent one
What the hell did I do to deserve this?
You cast me to the wolves
Their teeth a hold of me
Tearing me limb by limb
In these fucking walls
Where you left me to rot
Rats and stone are all I know
I need to get out
I need to get out!
