Finding my way back to where I belong, where I grew up the place I call home Within these four walls is where we begin, life hits start and we grow up until We become… Can’t you remember the times when I fell down, and you’d be there to help me off the ground. We fight for each other It’s where I loved, it’s where I lost The place where I believe This is my home. This is my home. As I grow old I’ll no longer need, I’ll outgrow the toys and push you away I’ll keep to myself and hide in my room Sadness will hit and it will stay until I have found you Can’t you remember the times when I fell down, and you’d be there to help me off the ground. We fight for each other It’s where I loved, it’s where I lost The place where I believe This is my home. This is my home.

Falling into this cave, filled with darkness and despair Trying to find the light, the light towards humanity Walls start collapsing minds start exploding Is no one listening? You know you can’t be heard at all. You’re tied to the ground and helpless You hear your voice but you can’t speak out Fight for the people For everyone back at home Stand up for yourself Someone will always catch your fall Holding on to every breath, making every moment last The world tuned in, grasping your every word This is your moment your chance at redemption Don’t let it waste, don’t let it die You know you can’t be heard at all. You’re tied to the ground and helpless You hear your voice but you can’t speak out Fight for the people For everyone back at home Stand up for yourself Someone will always catch your fall We’ll never be free, we’re stuck in this town, we need to seize the day we have found We’ll never be free we’re stuck in this town. We need to seize the day You know you can’t be heard at all. You’re tied to the ground and helpless You hear your voice but you can’t speak out Fight for the people For everyone back at home Stand up for yourself Someone will always catch your fall

There’s nothing left for me, we don’t even know what’s real. This world we live in is just one lie concealed. Without you here, I’m just lost in this lie. To be left here alone, with no one to hear my cries. Would they even know, Would they even care? But they don't understand, What it's like. Hang on to your noose, choke your troubles away. Let all your problems drain, into the kingdoms of our past. Write it on your blade, and dig into the skin For all it’s worth to you. From the time you were gone All these years of pain With this very blade, I’ve everything to gain My mind has been set. I cannot overcome. It’s too much too handle. You’ll miss me when I’m gone There never was, And there will never will be, This is finally it, This is the end. Hang on to your noose, choke your troubles away. Let all your problems drain, into the kingdoms of our past. Write it on your blade, and dig into the skin For all it’s worth to you. So look into my eyes, and see what you’ve become Realize you’re not the only one to suffer in this. I’m right here beside you, to guide you on your way home. And everything will be okay for I will help you when you are hurting, ohh. Hang on to your noose, choke your troubles away. Let all your problems drain, into the kingdoms of our past. Write it on your blade, and dig into the skin For all it’s worth to you. Hang on to your noose, choke your troubles away. Let all your problems drain, into the kingdoms of our past. Write it on your blade, and dig into the skin For all it’s worth to you.

All along, all alone now. The wicks burnt out, the lantern’s faded out. What path have I been carving? Has a path been carved for me? A feeling of emptiness. The moon’s face is all I see. Back on the path, the pathway home. I will wait for the bricks to lay themselves. The weight of the sand within this tired hourglass, the moment draws closer. Becoming mud soaked in beads of sweat. Break these walls, and begin again. Time wears me out like a stone in tide. I wish to break these walls and start again. Every tree uprooted. Every plant wilted. Every day longer and every wound pounding. The snow and the rain repeat. Denting the ground each day. The time for reflection. I keep tossing coins into this empty well by no fault of my own am I being punished. There’s no judge and the jury’s in my head The weight of the sand within this tired hourglass, the moment draws closer. Becoming mud soaked in beads of sweat. Break these walls, and begin again. Time wears me out like a stone in tide. I wish to break these walls and start again. The current of streams to strong to hold back The glimpse of light, keeping tomorrow alive. Which way have I been running? There’s only one way home. The straight path before me. About to fall off the edge. Something holds me true... the sight before me. Walking this path for far too long. Suddenly engulfed in grains of sand. Paved roads return me back home. I arrive staring at the empty room. Never been here, built with my own two hands. Find what’s missing retrace my steps. Flip the hourglass once again. The sun still rose back then. The weight of the sand within this tired hourglass, the moment draws closer. Becoming mud soaked in beads of sweat. Break these walls, and begin again. Time wears me out like a stone in tide. I wish to break these walls and start again.

Winter 02:27
On the shores we may have laughed and loved, but we didn’t live long enough to make it better for ourselves. She’s the only one who got away. Vanished. Sun sets moon shines, will I be just fine with another night without you Life goes on, but I don’t seem to follow. Now I stand above her grave Soil pushing our love towards the core away from my heart I climb these stairs and see my fate below One more step Sun sets moon shines, will I be just fine with another night without you Life goes on, but I don’t seem to follow.

The world looks down upon you, and pushes you to the side Now I stand closer to the edge, breathing my final breath This is not what I had in mind, when you left me behind This is our life we take for granted We struggled through time, be still we lasted Remember when we had it all? Is it really my fault? That you couldn’t live forever. Now I live in sorrow. Every day and every night. Today and tomorrow. This is our life we take for granted We struggled through time, be still we lasted Life flashed by so fast. I can’t take back the past. My memories only maim. They only drive me insane. My conscience tells me not to jump. There must be more to be done. This is our life we take for granted We struggled through time, be still we lasted Take my hand, we’ll live forever. When we still had each other, we lived in happiness. My memories are all that’s left. A gift from God himself. On the shores, we lived laughed and loved. I believed these times would never end. Then came the call, we wouldn’t forget. Only three months left. She said to me, I’m sorry but it’s not up to you or me. For another day we’ll live free, but when will it be? As I walk closer to the edge, I feel your spirit growing close. If I jump off this very ledge, would all my fears be exposed? I’m stuck with indecision, guilt and no direction. This is our life we take for granted We struggled through time, be still we lasted Take my hand we’ll live forever.
