Struggling to see all the beauty in the world without this artificial feeling Trying to breathe through the heaviness I have created living in me This is the calm before the storm The quiet moment before my thoughts cry out And flense my flesh from bone Every moment that I feel you leaving me I'm scared that I won’t ever break free from this Nightmare I’ve been living, trying to fly so high To reach the colors and the sounds that make me feel alive One more time, one more line is drawn In the sand as I try for myself to break this hell that I call life Falsehoods cannot bind me And lies they cannot chain me This taint runs deep to my core But it will not define me Every moment that I feel you leaving me I'm scared that I won’t ever break free from this Nightmare I’ve been living, trying to fly so high To reach the colors and the sounds that make me feel alive Like a white cocoon, butterflies are crushed by you I revile at the flashbacks late at night Where the scent of regret lay firmly by my side The moments of pleasure, the feeling of pain The fear that this would never ever end I show myself no remorse for the actions that I have taken This ongoing fascination for a world that I did not belong is coming to close The war within myself is over finally The sounds that make me feel alive are back, to stay Here, forever Every moment that I feel you leaving me I'm scared that I won’t ever break free from this Nightmare I’ve been living, trying to fly so high To reach the colors and the sounds that make me feel alive The sounds that make me feel alive The sounds make me feel alive, push forward and forever strive
