Lyrics
There is nothing left for me
Nothing more that I can see
God, what do you want from me
It's so dark, I cannot see
Who do you want me to be
Torn by anger, I can't agree
I'm crying out, why can't you see
Let me set myself free
Tell me now, how do you feel
My emotions that you steal
Haunting woes, I cannot deal
This suffering can't be real
To you, I'm just the third wheel
Silent screams, my way to deal
It was my life you tried to steal
Gun to your head, how do you feel?
It's like the hell
It comes to life
And someday we
Won't sacrifice
And then my life
Leads me to find
This world is torn but we survive
Emptiness is always here
The false hope that I hold dear
Cannot cope with my own fears
Can't you feel the end is near
Reality is free from cheer
Your life determined by career
The road to death, which way to steer?
The grim inferno is now here
Don't know why to even try
Manipulation for which you strive
You can't even hear my cries
Accelerating your demise
Time to go, let my hopes fly
Falling into the grey sky
Because of this, now, you must die
Your sands of time have now run dry
It's like the hell
It comes to life
And someday we
Won't sacrifice
And then my life
Leads me to find
This world is torn (This silent scream)
But we survive (Brings me to life)
