I've let this world begin to consume me I've let myself ahead of you It seems that I have forgotten lessons that I’d learnt It seems that I have passed you by I can’t keep treading this water Trying to fight to keep my head up high Every step that I take keeps dragging me Deeper and deeper This feeling of sickness It grows in my pit (my mind is falling to darkness) Open my eyes, to follow my head or my heart Open my eyes; this world is tearing me apart Wash me away and leave my body Just take away the dead inside Upon the tides I’m carried away To learn again just what you deserve When anger and stress coincide It’s hard to push against the tides I’m sick of having what is mine Taken from my grasp I’m left alone and cold It feels as I have nothing left Wash me away and leave my body Just take away the dead inside Upon the tides I’m carried away To learn again just what you deserve It what you deserve I can’t keep treading water It’s hard to push against the tides

Forsaken dreams for world of symmetry A world of harmonious peace We create more distance between you and I We fight for reasons of obscurity The world is not Black and White it’s full of colours to see We’re all hypocrites and we are all scared of change Take it back It’s never too late to change Take back those words you say Don’t let your mind rot to a man-made disease When you can obtain an abundance of knowledge for free When you can see there is no difference between you and me All that’s visible is the cracks within your beliefs A broken mindset, open up your eyes Begin to see SYMMETRY Now we’re starting to see That this world is bigger than you and me Symmetry A world of harmonious peace Where freedom exists and hate desists Now we’re starting to see That this is bigger than you and me When will we all be free?

You could say that I’ve traveled but I haven’t been far Remembering the times of my life where I’ve tried to spread my wings Could we journey to a place that remains untouched Could we journey afar from the troubles in our lives Its times to make a change, to revolutionize Exchange what we know for a new found knowledge For a new found life I’m taking the road less traveled led by wanderlust I’m feeling free by making my own choice I walk a path that no others touched Existence isn’t free, it is justified I was so scared, prisoner to my own life Where once my ignorance reigned Now I prosper, now I lead We can’t live freely if we’re all oppressed No one can ever heal this pain that’s within my chest It’s why I’m leaving this fucked world behind Saying goodbye to this deep dark abyss I’m taking the road less traveled led by wanderlust I’m feeling free by making my own choice I walk a path that no others touched Existence isn’t free, it is justified I was so scared, prisoner to my own life Where once my ignorance reigned Now I prosper, now I lead Give me that fucking wanderlust It wasn’t til now that I understand I can be my own true self I can be a free man But it’s never as easy as it seems Because freedom isn’t free And it comes at a price What are you willing to sacrifice? You could say that I’ve traveled but I haven’t been far No I haven’t been far If you reach out for my hand I can show how How to leave this fucking world behind If freedom is what you want I can show you how Just answer me one question What are you willing to sacrifice?

I feel it in the air, I see the cold in her breath There’s no one in this room, but I am not alone I remember her touch just like it was yesterday I smell the perfume left on her favourite dress It’s a constant reminder not to forget her death Oh god can someone please help me not to regret Wake up Why the fuck cant I just wake up From this nightmare I can’t go on knowing You’re not here by my side You’re not here by my side It’s time to close my eyes To put some ease upon mind But the first thing I see Is her eye’s looking back at me The worst isn’t over Her porcelain skin is embracing me The sweetest touch you’ll ever feel it’s taking me home My mind is filled with your ghost I try to breathe but all I do is choke As ice cold hands grip around my throat My dear I’ll fight, until I find Where the gods make your rest I’ll seek your ghost until my very last breathe I’ll find your ghost I fear this loneliness will be the end of me Your lack on presence will be the end of me No, you cannot leave me here This catastrophic tear in my heart Has set free all of my memories No, you cannot leave me here No, this is not the end I loved you to my heart’s content No, this is not the end

You can never turn back now Passing the point of no return A minor discretion that turned into misdirection You’ve had your chance to stand, so sit the fuck back down It’s my turn to talk, to fix the words that you misspoke You were never a leader; all you speak is fucking fables Watch and learn, don’t crash and burn, don’t pass the point of no return Too late now, your letting everybody down Its too late now, your desires are worth nothing now You were too proud, jumped the gun and now you will come crashing down Modesty is not your forte Do you ever look in the mirror and think what the fuck have I become Does it hurt to know you’ve made the wrong decision again and again Don’t justify what you have done It’s my turn to talk, to right the wrongs of your whole life’s work You were never a leader, just another finger puppet Watch and learn, you’ve crashed and burnt, you’ve passed the point of no return It is too late now, you’ve let everybody down Too late now, your desires are worth nothing now You were too proud, jumped the gun and now you will come crashing down Modesty is not your forte and you bask in bastardry Drop to your knees, beg for forgiveness The people have spoken, your time has come You’ve been rid of Disposed and forgotten Walk away before you are crushed We will fucking decimate you Total utter destruction Drop to your knees Drop to your knees, beg for forgiveness This is the end, your time has come Your time has fucking come

I’ll tear your heart out through your throat Betrayer How dare you lay beside me With a veil of guilt Like a cloud in your mind You must have wanted the world To turn your back on all that you know You must have swallowed the lies To ever sink so fucking low So now you stick that dagger right through our love All that we had All that we loved You’ve thrown away You betrayed me All that there ever was Has been destroyed, by A slip of the tongue Betrayer Never to be suspected So carefully disguised A family left in disgust In your woven web of lies Deceiver All that we had All that we loved You’ve thrown away You betrayed me All that there ever was Has been destroyed, by A slip of the tongue Betrayer I can’t believe that I trusted you with my fucking life This is pain, This is pain Burning through my chest Never again, Never again Betrayer Lay to rest
