Crimson

Red like the blood seeping down from her wrist
as she screams out for help
before she ends this
Thorns are surrounding her hollow heart
as she's beaten and tortured
and torn apart
Her petals are falling
Her leaves are dead
She self-destructed for so long
to kill there's nothing left
There’s a light in this tunnel
somewhere at the end
and I know I can show her
but she's blindfolded
It's hard to see the light
when you were born in the dark
Maybe not too easy to see
Oh-oh it's easier for me,
to show you than explain
The end to the pain
burn all the pages
She smells so good
It's a shame she hates herself
she's more beautiful
than anyone else
The lies just won't stop
The scars they won't either
So cut her down more
She'll cut even deeper
It's hard to see the light
when you were born in the dark
Maybe not too easy to see
Oh-oh it's easier for me,
to show you than explain
The end to the pain
burn all the pages
Roses are red
Veins are blue
While I lie here dying
I am thinking of you
As my arm turns crimson
and my world goes black
I fall asleep and dream
of never coming back
Thorns are surrounding her hollow heart
As she's beaten and tortured
And torn apart
The lies just won't stop
The scars won't either
So cut her down more
She'll cut even deeper
It's hard to see the light
when you were born in the dark
Maybe not too easy to see
Oh-oh it's easier for me,
to show you than explain
The end to the pain
burn all the pages
Burn, burn, burn all the pages
Burn, burn, burn all the pages

Collateral damage
Is my last few years
Killing the innocent..
Something is crawling
From inside of me
And I might just let it win
Setting myself up
For failure
Watching as it works
Waging war on my own skin
Engaging self-destruct
I can't hide my demons anymore
(I'm praying)
Never knowing what I'm fighting for
(Still waiting)
I can't find the words to stay,
Or the strength to walk away,
I can't face my own life as my
Demons haunt me
My archetype has been defined
So many times by me
The irony in what I am
A paradox it seems
I am sick of being sick
Inside of my own head
I hate who I am
And I hate who I'm becoming
I can't hide my demons anymore
(I'm praying)
Never knowing what I'm fighting for
(Still waiting)
I can't find the words to stay,
Or the strength to walk away,
I can't face my own life as my
Demons haunt me
I hate who I am
And I hate who I'm becoming
I can't hide my demons anymore
Never knowing what I'm fighting for
I can't find the words to stay,
Or the strength to walk away,
I can't face my own life as my
Demons haunt me
I can't hide my demons anymore
(I'm praying)
Never knowing what I'm fighting for
(Still waiting)
I can't find the words to stay,
Or the strength to walk away,
I can't face my own life as my
Demons haunt me

It's like walking on glass
With no realization
There's blood on my feet
But I can't feel a thing
I breathe in the numbness
Accept my own weakness
As if that's not enough,
I can't help my mind
Dance with me,
Step this way and lose the night with me,
As if this weren't a dream!
Dance with me!
Just this one last time,
Before we open our eyes,
Make it seem like this isn't a dream.
I can't forgive you even though I've tried.
It keeps me up at night.
I don't feel,
Empathize,
Hate is all I have left.
I don't feel,
Empathize,
Pain is all I have left.
Dance with me,
Step this way and lose the night with me,
As if this weren't a dream!
Dance with me!
Just this one last time,
Before we open our eyes,
Make it seem like this isn't a dream.
How hard it must be to live with yourself
How hard it must be to live by yourself
Dance with me,
Step this way and lose the night with me,
As if this weren't a dream!
Dance with me!
Just this one last time,
Before we open our eyes,
Make it seem like this isn't a dream.

Hollow

I see the anger swelling up in you
It shows the true colors of you
And as your smile fades away
All I can see is rage
You let your pain control you
Control your every move
Will I make it out of here
knowing who I am?
Or will I disappear?
I have so much to fear
Inside this hollow home
How am I to grow
When you're an imbecile
All you see is angst
You don't see me for me
Looking down on me
Must be so easy
For someone so self-righteous
But you're a fake to me
Will I make it out of here
knowing who I am?
Or will I disappear?
I have so much to fear
Inside this hollow home
Am I destined to
Sail into the dark?
Will I go alone
Or will I find
Someone on the way?
Am I destined to
Walk through life alone
Will I ever escape this empty home
This hollow home
Will I make it out of here
knowing who I am?
Or will I disappear?
I have so much to fear
Inside this hollow home
Am I destined to
Sail into the dark?
Will I go alone
Or will I find
Someone on the way?
Am I destined to
Walk through life alone
Will I ever escape this empty home
This hollow home

Never seemed to be what anybody
Claimed to need
Never didn't go against the grain
Devil's advocate
And now I'm dying over it
And there's no way that you will keep me from revenge
Take me away
There is nothing you can do
Run and hide
I will find you
I am here to show you your end
Because your end is where I begin
Take me to the end of times
And I will laugh hysterically
I dream to see the world go up in flames
Blood is what I seek
Until I find it I won't cease
And you can all thank yourselves
For the man I am today
Take me away
There is nothing you can do
Run and hide
I will find you
I am here to show you your end
Because your end is where I begin
In the end, you can't trust a thing they say
Or believe in anything
But you can trust and believe
That I will bring you pain
There is nothing you can do
Run and hide
I will find you
I am here to show you your end
Because your end is where I begin
