AGGGGGGH!
Here we go, just another day of battle now.
Let it go, it will fix itself in time but not now.
As I go, I depict another war that’s formed , how
It has started, I have not uncovered!

Lost and confused in this fiery land.
The way to escape would be through your hand.
Reach out your arm and capture me now
‘Cause to be left alone in this debt is my biggest regret.

So switch sides, to open the hardened heart.
Truthful lies, will reinforce the start of pain.
Put an end, to this masquerade you call a game.
Carve your name in shame.

Divided in half again, you won’t escape me.
To see the light again, you must remake me.
I’ll hunt you down, my soul, my brother
And resolve this confliction that took over us.

I’m losing control of my soul again.
Do what you can to aide me, my friend.
Seeing myself from across the line
I’m willing to light the fuse to my mind this time.

So switch sides, to open the hardened heart.
Truthful lies, will reinforce the start of pain.
Put an end, to this masquerade you call a game.
And carve your name within the walls of shame.

Looking for answers to questions that don’t exist.
Will I ever find what I’m searching for?
How to feel, what to think, what to do
Are all taunting me, and won’t let go of me!

AGGHHH!
If I could let you go, I wouldn’t think twice.
I’d throw you out of my life.
If I would let you go, I’d pay the price
With you out of my life.
So should I let you go? I’m still asking
And I don’t know why.
I cannot let you go, No matter how hard I try.

I lie, again,
Just trying to pretend,
It’s alright.
It’s not fine.
I’m dying inside,
Because you’re the darkest light…
(Because you’re the darkest light…)
I’m dying inside.
You’ve stolen the light from my eyes.

I lie, again,
Just trying to pretend,
It’s alright.
It’s not fine.
I’m dying inside,
Because you’re the darkest light…
(Because you’re the darkest light…)
I’m dying inside.
You’ve stolen the light from me.
