Prisoner to Yourself
As the pages turn, they begin to burn Quickly turning to ash As the pages turn, they begin to burn Blown away by winds of time Don't you see the light of day It’s passing you away Do you feel dead inside? This has become your life Craving sympathy Dwelling in apathy Every single day you let fade away Gone without a trace Time is running out, will you figure out Time waits for no one A slave to your own mind, you've left it all behind A prisoner to yourself Take a look deep inside This is no place to reside A prisoner to yourself Afraid of pain afraid of suffering You've becomе your own demise Emptiness by your sidе Confined to your mind You reside in this cell you’ve made So hard to break out You're feeding off doubt Self hate Procrastinate Every single day you let fade away Gone without a trace Time is running out, will you figure out Time waits for no one A slave to your own mind, you've left it all behind A prisoner to yourself Take a look deep inside This is no place to reside A prisoner to yourself Questioning why your motives ran dry Future is bleak Outlook is weak Reality a far cry Will the reflection in the mirror meet your eye? Will the embers left re-kindle your fire? I see no hope and no desire Every single day you let fade away Gone without a trace Time is running out, did you figure it out? Time waits for no one You're blaming the universe For your own misfortunes A prisoner to yourself Time is of the essence One life and many lessons A prisoner to yourself
