Radiant Dark

How can I live with myself Knowing what I've done? My regret, now it takes control And what I've done is pulling me in like a black hole I can't force to forgive myself I'm always losing what was never mine It was never mine I want to feel at ease With the choices that I have made But this sense of dread It won't fucking fade How can, how can I live with myself Knowing what I've done? (What I've done) I pushed you away when I needed you I needed you the most Trapped behind cold eyes We've never had the chance to, just to say our goodbyes Just don't depend on me 'Cause the words out of my mouth are nothing but lies If I could take back what's done, I would Trade this all for something more than good How can, how can I live with myself Knowing what I've done? (What I've done) I pushed you away when I needed you I needed you the most How can, how can I live with myself Knowing what I've done? (What I've done) I pushed you away when I needed you I needed you the most An empty void deep down, deep down inside This is where my black heart hides An empty void deep within, will I ever atone for my sins? An empty void Just forget me I am nothing but an outcast (An outcast) I always seem to come out dead last Can I begin to fix the fucking past? Time will tell

These days I feel outnumbered, I can never get ahead Always on the outside, forever looking in I'm so ashamed of who I am I try to pass the blame Too afraid to face the truth I push everyone away Hollow, let me be whole again Empty, drowning in my regret Hollow, let me be whole again Can I, can I run from my past? Let go and start again? All I wanted was to feel alive (Feel alive) But I don't think that I can win this fight Cut me free from my misery These days feel like they’re on repeat, I will never get ahead Stuck in my own ways, I'm so used to giving in Can I be a better man And learn to live again? I'd like to think I'm moving on But a part of me is still holding on To all of my nightmares A never ending nightmare Can I, can I run from my past? Let go and start again? All I wanted was to feel alive (Feel alive) But I don't think that I can win this fight Cut me free from my misery Will I ever be anything Other than my own worst enemy? I keep searching for answers What will it take to set me free? Will I ever be anything Other than my own worst enemy? Change, I can change Or am I better off this way? (Better off this way) Show me how to get through another day Can this be what I need (What I need) To start over, to start over?

I brought my knife to a gun fight Never sure of what the fuck is right Always falling down I'm losing my sight I'm losing my sight My demons are more than a memory My demons are more than I can see My body aches, my mind is weak There's a hole in my heart that can't be filled Can I survive the tide Or will the storm take me away? Hold on tight for this is more than a nightmare It never shows and this affects me every bit Will the storm take me away? Infesting my soul each day I'm waiting on a signal to turn my skies from grey Release this pain I knew this day would come Just burn all my thoughts I ever had Burn them to the ground Because I'm tired of going mad I knew this day would come I'm going mad My body aches, my mind is weak There's a hole in my heart that can't be filled Can I survive the tide Or will the storm take me away? Hold on tight for this is more than a nightmare It never shows and this affects me every bit Will the storm take me away? Take me away? In the end, everything is fucking put to rest Happiness is a false reality A vague reminder of how I used to be (I used to be) A vague reminder of how I used to be A vague reminder of how I used to be (I used to be) A vague reminder of how I used to be

You make me sick A crooked smile, a heart of stone Betray, two-faced, you're a fucking joke I know you all so well Always try to bring me down But I can see through you Don’t think you have a chance to gain the upper hand You were never close You will never be who I am I'm not backing down so go and try to break me I won't let you get the best of me, hate me But I promise you won’t forget me This is who I am, I won't let you get the best of me, go I won't let you get the best of me You run your mouth then try to hide Let everyone fight your own fight Step up, step up, I want to see what you're made of You're nothing more than a coward You're a fake and it shows Always finding ways to reach a new low Coward, worry about yourself Keep my name out your mouth 'cause in the end You will never be who I am I'm not backing down so go and try to break me I won’t let you get the best of me, hate me But I promise you won’t forget me This is who I am, I won't let you get the best of me Hate me, break me Hate me, break This is who I am

Why the fuck do I feel this way? Always searching for the words to say Cursed thoughts day after day Is it me, am I going insane? Darkness closes in I'm losing hope, I feel it within Darkness breathes down my neck I'm losing hope, no way to cope Who am I running from? I'm scared to do this on my own Worn down and losing ground I'm lost and can't be found Tossing, turning, back and forth I don't know who I am anymore This was always meant to be And I will never feel free I will never feel free Fuck, what is real? Don't tell me how to feel How can I deal? Just tell me how to heal, yeah Fuck, what is real? How can I deal? Just tell me how to heal Who am I running from? I can't do this alone Who am I running from? I'm scared to do this on my own Worn down and losing ground I'm lost and can't be found Tossing, turning, back and forth I don't know who I am anymore This was always meant to be And I will never feel free Going through the motions I've never felt so dead The world will never miss me Always one step ahead Clouded judgement resides within Not even half the man I should have been There is no point in living a lie My beating heart, just let it die Just let it die Who am I running from? I'm scared to do this on my own Worn down and losing ground I'm lost and can't be found Tossing, turning, back and forth I don't know who I am anymore This was always meant to be And I will never feel free I will never feel free What, what?

We are so alone Can we make it on our own? We are so alone I always knew that there was something wrong Every story they told me was all a lie People suffering, the world is split in two You watch it all and leave us with nothing No hope, just despair No hope, just despair You watch it all, you left us with nothing We are so alone With no one to save our souls Cutting through skin and bone Can we make it on our own? Falling down so far below Waiting for the dark to swallow me whole Is this the end, am I finally free? Free of this misery? The light always seems to fade Every second I breathe is killing me God, can you hear me? I'm starting to realize you were never fucking there All those helpless cries, all those lost in their way So many useless lies, you fucking turned away All those days gone by How could you do this to us? We are so alone With no one to save our souls Cutting through skin and bone Can we make it on our own? We are so alone With no one to save our souls Cutting through skin and bone Can we make it on our own? Looking for an answer, even a sign Truth is, we are left behind You are nothing but a fucking ghost You failed us when we needed you the most The sky is an empty void All our hope, nothing but destroyed Fuck

Swimming circles in my mind Why can't I leave this all behind? I'm stuck in the place that I'll never feel safe I'll never feel safe Every single thought is false Now I'm keeping myself locked behind these fucking walls Take me back, back to when I felt my best All this time in between, I'm a fucking mess I won't make it out alive And I can't seem to find the will to survive Heartless and I get knocked back down Drowning, gasping, screaming, all without a sound Can I run to safety? Escape the world that this hate breeds It's harder to keep myself sane Mind out of luck, it still remains No, I'm not anything I thought I'd be It's not the same for my own way Fuck this feeling Every minute that I waste It's closer to failure I don't want To fuel this flame (Fuel this flame) Never been one to take the blame Nothing different, it's all the same Forget my name Nothing is different Forget my name Can I run to safety? Escape the world that this hate breeds It's harder to keep myself sane Mind out of luck, it still remains Can I run to safety? Escape the world that this hate breeds It's harder to keep myself sane Mind out of luck, it still remains

My life has no worth It seems like it's only getting worse and worse Every time I get ahead, I always wind up back In the fucking red, in the fucking red Over and over, it never ends Pushing me down, I can't make amends And every second, every minute, I Want to give up each and everyday Further from the truth is where I stray Won't you help me find a way? Can you keep my agony at bay? I won't feel betrayed Fuck There has to be a solution (Solution) There is no fucking resolution We always seem to run Away from the darkness And if we search within We just might set ourselves free We set ourselves free We set ourselves free We set ourselves free We set ourselves free We always seem to run Away from the darkness And if we search within We set ourselves free Over and over, again and again It never seems to fucking end Finding comfort in the things that will never change If I had a steady chance I could never disengage And every second, every minute, I Want to give up each and everyday Further from the truth is where I stray Won't you help me find a way? Can you keep my agony at bay? I won't feel betrayed Feel betrayed Will this ever end? Will this ever end?

Who the fuck are you? Who the fuck are you? You're the worst kind of evil that I’ve ever seen Torturing me to my end, what does it mean? If I could just run, maybe I would be okay I don't have the strength for another day, oh Can you help me? Oh, please help me Every breath is slowly killing me (Killing me) Trapped inside as far as I can see I'm sick of hearing, "It’s okay", that it's all in my head I'm sick of your lies, so tired of feeling this way Stop playing innocent, you're the one to blame Just stay away from me, don't you know the damage is done? Am I living a lie? The monster is real, the monster is real Misery in my body is all I feel Days feel like weeks when you're trapped inside this hell I'm supposed to trust you, why can't I trust you? Do you get enjoyment out of seeing me suffer? She tells me it’s for the best, but is it enough for you? One day you will regret your actions No longer will you get your fucking satisfaction Look at me, do you miss how I used to be? I’m sick of hearing, "It's okay", that it’s all in my head I'm sick of your lies, so tired of feeling this way Stop playing innocent, you're the one to blame Just stay away from me, don't you know the damage is done? So sick, so sick of feeling this way So sick, so sick, you know I can never leave Why the fuck did you bury me in this empty fucking hole? I deserved so much more and you gave me so much less Fuck Who the fuck are you To leave me in no control? (No control) Forgotten, now just a memory Let us release from the past
