[intro]
[soulful howl]
[Verse 1]
I’ve traveled too far through this dark,
I try to scream but it holds my bark.
My splintered mind wants to mend,
But to the void it makes me bend.
I’ve lost the root for my soul,
While my body shrivels to coal.
The endless darkness staring me down,
where my insanity brands its crown.
Each breath I feel its burn,
No matter how far I run there’s no turn.
I scratch at this phantom wall,
consumed by night for which I called.
[pre-chorus]
I’ve tried to stop
I want to turn back
I’ve grown tired of its attack
So I’ll ask, as I climb
Can you save me, this time! (Time!…)
[Chorus]
Lost on the path, the demons I embraced
Lock in this hollow shell, a destiny erased
I beg for absolution, a severance from pain
Smash these chains, let me breathe again
I scream from the void, a desperate, broken plea
Lift me up, (lift me up)
set my spirit free
[Verse 2]
My memories blur and fade, I pay the toll they made.
Twisting in this shell that used to be my skin
Minutes chase the hours, time’s a ticking thin.
I whisper for a miracle I never thought to make,
Heart stuck in my throat, don’t know how much more I can take.
This pain’s too much to mask,
forgiveness is all I ask
[pre-chourus]
I’ve tried to stop
I want to turn back
I’ve grown tired of its attack
So I’ll ask, as I climb
Can you save me, this time (Time!…)
[Chorus]
Lost on the path, the demons I embraced
Lock in this hollow shell, a destiny erased
I beg for absolution, a severance from pain
Smash these chains, let me breathe again
I scream from the void, a desperate, broken plea
Lift me up, (lift me up)
set my spirit free
[Bridge]
TAKE YOUR MERCY!
I’M TIRED OF KNEELING!
SHOW ME THE LIGHT!
I WANT THE REINS OF MY LIFE!
[solo]
[Last Chorus]
Lost on this path, the demons searching for me
This hollow shell, I fight with all my might
I beg for forgiveness, just for a shred of light
Rips these chains, I need to breathe! (breath)
I’m screamn’ from the void, hear my bleeding plea
Lift me up, (lift me up)
Save my wretched soul—SET ME FREE!
