lyrics

On a winter's night so harsh and cold
Lifelessness has filled a human mold
In the vacuum of a fractured mind
Refuge is impossible to find

Trapped within this whole I've dug and built a world inside
Can I overcome what can't be masked with pain filled smiles

Senses poured out and unified
Pressure building. My hands are tied
Stare down. Into the ashes of once was
Perfection personified

On the wrong side of reality, I won't forgive what I can't forget
Your tyranny has come undone
The darkest days are still to come, but I refuse to bite my tongue
You're Not Worth My Blood

Stumbling a bloody wreck, fingers wrapped around the neck
On the path so straight and true, but where the hell are you
Sanity has been defaced with images I can't erase
The lifelessness within the mold has now begun to bleed

On the wrong side of reality, I won't forgive what I can't forget
Your tyranny has come undone
The darkest days are still to come, but I refuse to bite my tongue
You're Not Worth My Blood
