Following

It's with both love and hate 
 <br/> We live in this endeavor 
 <br/> You're poison in my veins 
 <br/> And I can't get enough <br/> <br/> It tickles in my brain <br/> 
No logic why I'm craving 
 <br/> This guilt and endless blame 
 <br/> The crater's getting deep <br/> <br/> I'm in slavery <br/> 
If I step out
 <br/> You just pull us back together <br/> <br/> I've been following your voice 
 <br/> I've been following too long 
 <br/> The agony will fade <br/> 
Then remind me once again 
 <br/> That you're not a loving friend <br/> 
You would hurt me in the end 
 <br/> The fear I have to lose you <br/> 
Is greater than my sense <br/> <br/> Your evil mental tricks
 <br/> They hurt but don't desert me <br/> 
These games they make me sick <br/> 
These wounds will never mend 
 <br/> Your words they give a kick <br/> 
But they oppress and they're enslaving
 <br/> Your rules they are so strict <br/> 
I can not see an end <br/> <br/> I'm in slavery and I've 

 <br/> <br/> Been following your voice <br/> 
I've been following too long <br/> 
The agony will fade <br/> 
Then remind me once again 
 <br/> That you're not a loving friend 
 <br/> You would hurt me in the end 
 <br/> The fear I have to lose you 
 <br/> Is greater than my sense <br/> <br/> This road I follow will lead me straight to hell
 <br/> The promises are hollow and I know it all too well <br/> 
I'd run forever <br/> I’d do anything to leave
 <br/> But the chains they press hard <br/> 
To keep us close together <br/> <br/> I've been following your voice <br/> I've been following too long 
 <br/> The agony will fade
 <br/> Then remind me once again <br/> 
That you're not even a friend 
 <br/> You would hurt me in the end 
 <br/> The fear I have to lose you
 <br/> Is greater than my sense

Who'll lend a hand and help me stand before it falls apart? <br/> 
I'd never ask, I keep my mask you'll have to break through the veil 
 <br/> The highs are high but the lows are lower
 <br/> I'm counting up the days but the days are longer <br/> <br/> Diverging from sanity
 <br/> Please tell me what is wrong with me suddenly 
 <br/> Derailing on fragile ice 
 <br/> Please hold me for I'm scared that I won't survive 
 <br/> <br/> Strikes like a bolt, it's pure assault, handcuff and lock me up
 <br/> Might be deranged, what the hell changed? I'm somewhere lost on the trail <br/> The highs are high but the lows are lower <br/> 
I'm counting up the days but my days are longer <br/> <br/> I'm reaching out from my disaster <br/> <br/> Diverging from sanity
 <br/> Please tell me what is wrong with me suddenly
 <br/> Derailing on fragile ice <br/> 
Please hold me for I'm scared I won't survive the night <br/> <br/> I'm bleeding out, it burns down to my core 
 <br/> My legs give way and I crumble to the floor <br/> 
The more I wake, the more I'm in pain <br/> 
I must choose <br/> <br/> Diverging from sanity
 <br/> What's wrong can you tell me?
 <br/> Derailing on fragile ice
 <br/> Please hold me for I'm scared I won't survive the night

You felt so alive <br/> 
In your head you trusted words <br/> 
That drew you far across the line
 <br/> Do you see it, feel it anymore? <br/> 
In your head there are only demons now <br/> <br/> 

Free your mind
 <br/> 'Cause your high won't last forever 
 <br/> Don't you stay inside <br/> 
Letting it grow <br/> <br/> You were so consumed by <br/> 
The desire of wanting more <br/> 
And it drew you even further down 
 <br/> You'll see it, you'll feel it I'm sure <br/> 
You will need to face your demons now <br/> <br/> Free your mind
 <br/> 'Cause your high won't last forever 
 <br/> Don't you stay inside <br/> 
Letting it grow <br/> 
Free your mind <br/> 
Let your soul be stronger than ever 
 <br/> Let your will divide
 <br/> And choose the right side <br/> 
Let it go <br/> 
Let it go <br/> 
 <br/> Make sure that you fight <br/> 
You can't let it linger <br/> It turns day to night <br/> Be stronger than you've ever been <br/> 
Let go and be free <br/> <br/> Free your mind <br/> 
'Cause your high won't last forever <br/> 
Don't you stay inside <br/> 
Letting it grow
 <br/> Free your mind <br/> 
Let your soul be stronger than ever <br/> 
Let your will divide <br/> 
And choose the right side <br/> 
Let it go <br/> 
Let it go
