lyrics

I can’t wait for my fate to seal
I pull this weight because I love to feel
Bring me pain it’s something I can take
I pulled the plug as soon as life felt fake to me

I’m falling forward in this endless space
I tried to burn those bridges again
Please don’t say that Im not trying
When I’m stuck with this war within my head

Help me down from this terrible place
Because the truth is I can’t live on like this
Take my pain away along with my breath
Till the day I can bet on my death bed
Till the day I can bet on my death bed
I feel the tension rise inside my skin
Make me bleed due to this war within

Cause I will flourish in this dirty realm
Blossom like a flower in this burning hell
Somebody save me from this conquered
Instability I’ve laced myself with
I’m covered in remorse

I can’t wait for my fate to seal
I pull this weight because I love to feel
Bring me pain it’s something I can take
I pulled the plug as soon as life felt fake to me

I’m falling forward in this endless space
I tried to burn those bridges again
Please don’t say that Im not trying
When I’m stuck with this war within my head

Please tell me I’ve tried at the end of the day
Wait for my come up because it’s coming soon
Oh it’s coming soon

Till the day I can bet on my death bed
I’ll hold within all the shit that you’ve said
Till the day I can bet on my death bed
I’ll hold within all the shit that you’ve said

Ridiculed by the ones I love
Came down from the heavens up above
There was something in that tasteless air
That Brought shallow demons everywhere
Piece by piece I will find my way
At least that’s what I say day by day
Pick me up pick me up like I’m nothing
Then throw me down when I thought we had something

I’m falling forward in this endless space
I tried to burn those bridges again
Please don’t say that Im not trying
When I’m stuck with this war within my head

Tonight I hold in your warm embrace
That’s when I fought the fears I face
Because that’s all I had left to give
Push a new meaning to this life I live

I can’t wait for my fate to seal
I pull this weight because I love to feel
Bring me pain it’s something I can take
I pulled the plug as soon as life felt fake to me
