-With an opaque view I see, I see right through you
-when you spit your words at me, you're sourced insane
-and when the sky falls down
-I am but afraid
-overcome the strength in me
-you'll see
And now you've broke from my grasp
And now you'll feel the horror
I'm nothing but a shell
Blinded by the fight
consumed by the shroud
Forward marching to the beat of a different drum, I push on and unafraid
I've chose my lifestyle, habits are breaking me now
And my eyes, they seem to fade
With this life
And my thoughts begin to sway
With this life
-I have stripped my flesh away
-From bone my bone again
-And the vultures cry fly and call your name
-When its run a ground
-I am unafraid
-Disguised by the mask I have made
-I bleed
And now the voice in my head
Are burning pyres of sorrow
There nothing but the hell
Burning through the fight
Ashes of the tale
Forward marching to the beat of a different drum, I push on and unafraid
I've chose my lifestyle, habits are breaking me now
And my eyes, they seem to fade
With this life
And my thoughts begin to sway
With this life
Feel the whispers, Lifeless, in your eyes, cut through
Got a moment for the blood on my brow, It's the only thing, screaming your name
Why can't you deal it?
Why can't you kill it?
Why can't you destroy the monsters that are inside
Now don't you know?
I'm the bastard son
I'm the real one
Going to be
Pushing, pulling
Opaque without a view
Peel the skin back, Set the fires bright, cut through
I have a fucking 10 ton weight of shame, Regrets are the game, Screaming my name
Why can't you feel it
Why can't you kill it
Why can't you destroy the monsters that are inside
Now don't you know?
I'm the bastard son
I'm the real one
Pushing, pulling
Opaque without a view
