lyrics

I've seen the barrel of a gun between by eyes.
Knees on the ground, I've been dying inside.
Slaughtered in doubt. Not knowing what to do
and when to do it. This will always be my enemy.
My enemy.

Bury my body where it can't be found.
Bury my body, Bury my body
Bury my body where it can't be found.
Bury my body.

I wield the mask of a coward. Never acting.
Always pondering. This is my flaw.

I've been looking, I've been searching
For a meaning to this life. Through the years
Through the pain. I've been bleeding.

There is a crucial moment in time where all hope is lost, and nothing could ever revive it. That final ember that clings to life in the furnace will never be whole again, and all is nothing but a dying dream.
I embrace tragedy with open arms, but I still
hold my defiance ever so dear.

I've been looking, I've been searching
For a meaning to this life. Through the years
Through the pain. I've been bleeding.

Through all the years, and through all this pain. I've been searching.
I've been looking, I've been searching for the meaning to this life.
Through the years and through the pain I've been bleeding for far too long.
Cauterize these wounds.
