5. The End of Innocence
1. I See Blinded
I see through the eyes,
I see through the eyes,
Feel the sunshine,
See the man who doesn't believe he can hold the heavens,
Touch the rain,
Touch the sky,
Through the wind as it cries,
I feel it burning through my skin,
I feel it tearing me,
I find it dragging me into the hole,
I feel it dragging me deeper down.
2. Shameless
I saved the last dance for you,
It was the last I could offer to you,
The time was right for the beginning of the end of this beautiful life,
You were the first one,
You were the last one,
You were the thoughts inside my head,
You were the anger beneath my bed,
You were everything in the world to me,
I didn't think you would lie to me,
I didn't think you'd give me a second look,
After all that I took,
After all that you took,
What is this thing they call shame?
'Cause it is driving me insane,
I saw the needles in the bedroom and I just crumbled,
I left everything wide open,
Open for you to see,
And I never thought,
I never thought that I would see the truth,
It's like I'm looking through a black veil at the sight before my eyes,
And it is like you ripped up everything that meant something to me,
It's shameless,
It's hopeless,
It's everything you ever said to me.
3. Laid to Rest
Rose pedals across my lips,
The last time you said perchance,
I remember all that happened next,
It's as vivid each night as I lay to rest,
I felt the coolness on my face,
It's like an ever glowing ember,
As it slashed at me through the darkness,
I remember the pain, I remember my screams,
Every time I see your picture,
It drives me to the brink of insanity,
Every time I smell your presence,
It fills me with divine hatred,
And as I lay myself to rest, never understanding why,
Why as I pray to the one and only one,
Please tell me the answers,
I feel like I can't go on,
This is too much to grasp on my own,
The sound of the wind in the trees,
Is the last thing that I hear.
4. Upon This We Die
Slowly creeping out the back door,
She swiftly runs into the moonlight,
She's waiting for the time to come,
When she will see the one, the one,
Who has promised her,
Life through death,
She's ready to give up her unborn son,
She hears the wind crying,
Through the trees,
It's begging her "Please, no",
She walks along and stumbles upon the path she will take forcefully,
She is pulled into the circle,
And upon this they slice,
Upon this we die,
They cry,
Upon this we die,
They cry,
All she was told was lies,
She was blind to their deceit,
She thought she was saving all of mankind,
Poor little girl,
Left to lay in pain,
Her ignorance by her side,
We bleed for him,
Our king.
5. The End of Innocence
I wrap my pain around myself,
So tight I can hardly breathe,
Self-destruction, it's my ultimate goal,
Really takes its toll,
The sweet addictions pulling at my soul,
It's all I've ever known of life,
These chains blind my eyes,
Pain and agony ripping right through me,
Tearing through my skin,
I know everything will be alright once my innocence is known,
Around my legs, my arms, my face,
Awakening all my senses it comes,
The final blow that unleashes it all,
My body won't move as I sleep to death,
The voice inside my head, is telling me it's alright,
Just use the fucking knife,
Just use the fucking knife.
