Is this the point when I should I begin
Or face the fact I’ve created all of my sins
Now you’re free from here
Nothing more that I could say or fear
I told you once I’d leave the world the same way
To lose it all and feel what remains
Now I’m free from you
Nothing more that I could say or do
But it’s still holding me down
Drowning me with oxygen
Till I can break free from its hold
I never said the things you wanted me to
All because I asked so much from you
Now you’re free from me
But it still feels as though I’m home
Never know just where I’m going
Or the fact and fictions of just what I’m feeling
I am not afraid of any thoughts from all you human beings
But it’s still holding me down
Drowning me with oxygen
Till I can break free from its hold
But I should have walked away
Now it still follows me
Like a cape I can’t tear free
Holding me
Still I can’t believe
If I should I tear it free
I’ll shred the fabric of reality

Sometimes
I wonder
Where I have been
All of this time
Maybe 3,000 feet above the ocean you love
Then you let go
You’re smiling so sweetly
Your attempts defeat me
I know
That time moves slow
Won’t let you go
Time
Makes sense
Enjoy
The fall
When I return
I’ll meet you there
3,000 feet above the edge
You love
I swore to you I would become something more
You’re right where I want you to be
I started this 9-5 years ago
You told me then I would become something more
Something more
Now that I’m here you’re so far away
I never thought I would here you say go home
Go home
Your body returns to days of when you were young
Remember how easy it was for you to fall in love
I know
Now that I’m here
You are drifting away
We were supposed to be
Something more
This is something I cannot conceive
No one
Will know
Leave me alone
Twisting and turn your reality
This is not what you’re supposed to see
You should move on
I know
You won’t
Time moves slow
You know you’re already gone
Your heart may be fleeting
But mine is still beating
You swore to me we would become something more
I started this 9-5 years ago
You told me then I supposed to be something more
Something more
Now that I’m here you’re so far away
I never thought I would here you say go home
Go home
When I return
I’ll meet you there (I’ll meet you there)
3,000 feet above the edge you love
I swore to you I would become something more
You’re right where I want you to be

This is a means to an end
That I can’t pretend
To understand
That I might be loosing you one way
Or the other
I never said that I was untrue
This isn’t working
I swore all the time
That I can not cross
The great divide
That you set
Inside your head
I tried to figure you out for so long
But you found your way in this fucking song
So instead
We’ll duel to the end
Now that you know I won't give up
This is the way we prepare for the end
With two flintlocks and a shot of gin
Ten steps
To our death
Maybe this is something more than you thought that could handle
I wont give up
I’m not loosing today
Place your finger
And hope you walk away
Loosing blood
With so much style
The hole in your chest
You’re in denial
You faint
I dry my eyes
I will do what must be done
Destroy the sinners
If one is my son
My own
Cursed
Seed
There’s no one is left in front of me
Until the end

No matter what you say or what you do
They won’t be crossing over without you
The days make the darkness feel so warm
Now that all your secrets have been told
I won’t hold you as close as I once did
Fighting and scheming you’ll turn to a friend
Your eyes will meet with mine before you take your last breath
The last thing I want you to see is my face
So long to these childish dreams
That I won’t dare to come between
Of what you want
And what you can’t have
Because I'm
Doing this for you
There’s no reason to run
This is where I stand
You make it feel so bad to be so good
It only opens wider when it should
Feels like I lost my legs
I’ll never walk again
I do this all the time
Reach in and pull out my spine
Seasons change and so do feelings
I won’t ever stop the killing
For your love
This is all I have to say
Because I'm
Doing this for you
There’s no reason to run
This is where I stand
Even though
I’ll be doing you a favor
Please don’t go
This is who I am

Seems as though I’m lost
Again
Look hard
You won’t find me where I lay
Still I try to move
But you don’t see where I am
Never too far from you
Now see the box that holds my memories
They glow with an aura
You reach for them
Such a mistake that you won’t make again
No one knows if death isn’t far from truth
But I’ll take you there some day
I’ll drag you with me willing if you choose
We’ll escape this world in flames
You will whisper
All of this is beyond what I could have imagined
As you walk the halls
Dragging your feet your heart beat will subside
And all along
You know
When I let you go
You’ve sealed your fate
So hold on so close
Before you know disarray
Watch as your friends
Fall away
They will try to save
The world that you hoped to change
Your world is now in flames
Death isn’t far from truth
But I’ll take you away (Some day)
You cannot change
What's become of you
There’s no way to arrange
And escape this place
You need to run
My love
And shelter yourself away
Hold on as long as you can
You’re so far away
No one knows if death isn’t far from truth
But I’ll take you there some day
I’ll drag you with me willing if you choose
We’ll escape this world in flames
In flames
In flames
In flames

No one believed this before we knew we were lost
It’s all in our heads, so they told us
And if we think this then we should just fucking evolve
And learn what is ours for the taking
Just give me a minute to clear my head again
And so we should have reacted long before now
This is not what we came for
Who says I’m not to blame for all the thoughts in my mind?
But I wouldn’t try to relate
If everything you loved was right in front of you
Could you reach out and take it?
And those of you who’ve know me all along you’ll find
You know that I’ve never been right
Lose yourself, don’t choose death until the end
You sure did change
Don’t give up on me
Don’t count me out
We’re doing this to save
Those who don’t think for themselves you see
They are vicious
Aren’t we all inside?
And now I’m not to proud of all the things I’ve done
I wouldn’t try and pretend
If everything you said would have been crystal clear
You could have walked away
Don’t give up on me
Don’t count me out
We’re doing this to save
Those who don’t think for themselves you see
They are vicious
Aren’t we all inside?
Through all these things
Oh I tried to dry the tears from your eyes
I tried so hard
Even all these dreams, though they never made sense
This is the point anyway
I tried so hard and failed
If it wasn’t worth it
This is the point when we loose all our dreams and it wasn’t a lie
Now that we know that we’ve already lost in the end
This is the way it’s supposed to be
So now we never reacted and so we should know
This is not what we paid for
Just give them a minute to clear their heads again
And so now we will all live it over again
This is the way it’s supposed to be

No I won’t sit and wait
For you to contemplate
Just how you feel about what’s right and wrong
You know just where I belong
We’ll lay in grasses green and watch the sky burn tonight
Like clouds that form in my mind
Don’t care about the things you’ve said and done
There is just things I don’t want to know
I set my heart up to be broken
And years later it’s tact
I know what must be done to choose my path
Or stick it out through the wrath
I never thought that there would be a chance I could burn
Until you said it’s your turn
You know I won’t ever let you go
And though they’ll try and pry us apart
I swore to protect you till the end
But when I’m gone will you stand a chance
If all you ever wanted to love wasn’t there, wasn’t there
If all you ever swore to protect would’ve turned their back on you in the end
Now I have come to grips with this somehow
But I am lost now
I know what must be done I will try to, to survive
At any cost
And maybe after all of this is over
We can save what’s lost
Or watch the world burn
I’m sorry, maybe this was all my fault
That you and I were meant to fall apart
I never thought that this would ever come to an end
But I had to hear this from the shoulder of a friend
But I will never cave in
This much you know is true
Now I have to make this
A clean break from you
