There’s something that lives in me/ A fight for a cause/My reason to be/ Who I really am/ Because I’m not what you see/ I can’t explain what this really is/ Forcing myself to believe what could have been/ Can the dreamer really dream in me/ Failing to write his dreams into reality/But there is nothing left to say/ Let open the flood gates and tear down these wall/ I wait out my own storm/ Set sail alone and try to keep current/I’m gone/ Carry me alone/ As I’m cast out to sea/ The waves are crashing down/I’m pulled underneath/ to what could be the end of me/ Why am I just missing you away/ Why won’t you believe in me/ Just take a chance on me/ Why am I/ Jumping the waves instead of pushing/ Pushing through your tides/ and currents/ Tread on again/ I bet you didn’t see this coming/ Left to drown in my faith/ But there is nothing you can say/ When I was missing you away/ Always missing you/ She calls out to me/ So I’m following to see/ To what could lead/ To these memories and broken keys/ Away

So tell me. Is this what you do to gain attention. She said “is this what you’ve become because of me. And tell me. Is this what you wanted? What you wanted me to be. Like every other fucking picture perfect played out movie scene. And tonight stop wish hell on wishing well. You knew I was always one for hope. This won’t be prolonged. Just understood. This is my antidote. Stepping away from everything I know. This won’t be prolonged. Just understood. This is our anecdote. Never to be told again. Give me the spotlight. Give me one reason why. I shouldn’t call you out right now. And let the world in on your lie. This is the last chance I have. So give me your ear. You know I couldn’t give a fuck about you. You’ll never hear from me again.

You burn the book but still you ask the question#” How do we live such a poisonous life”# Step up# You never listen# You never truly listen# We see the problems #no one will fix them now# No one can fix this# We are all Mannequins# We all pretend to live something real# But sometimes you’ll get a glance on how I really feel# This little flame# Building behind my eyes# Has ignited this hurricane that washed away your lives# I’m stuck in the same place# Wondering and Waiting# We've been here for a thousand years# And I think it’s time that we move along# I can’t stay still in this# I’m sick and tired of this back and forth shit# But I can’t move along# In a world where I’m living amongst the defeated# but I just can’t seem to leave it# To the ones who doubted us now# We’re not giving up# To let you know# We’re standing our ground# We are not giving up yet# Give it sometime I’m sure you’ll find# Open mouths reek havoc on closed minds# Can you handle this# Can you handle change again# Let go of your frail young mind# And just give it up# Can you handle this# Can you handle change again# from the start you had the heart of a mannequin#

If everything were to go as promised>There would be no room for you<And if you fail to see my logic>Can you even make that promise in the first place< We are not civil no we’re not even close> Just animals walking around in peoples clothes>You've never seen me> You’ll never see me at all<With your noose around my neck> and your back against my wall> I’m caged in> With your nightmares< trust your instincts> Let me feed for just a second> Here I stay.>Caged in most nights> Just let me out<Let me feed again> It will taste so good< I’ll pave the way to give you what you want> I’m not afraid to be> What you’re not< You’re not sinking your teeth into desire<You’re not biting the hands of your faults> Don’t close the book on me<Like it’s easy to see> I’m some wolf in sheep’s clothing<I’ll bite the hand that feeds you all the lies<

Stop talking^ I’ll Stick with^ Who I am^ Hello my father say goodbye to your loved ones^ Goodbye my fallen^ No I can’t be your saving grace^ A cure for your disease^ Just try putting your mind at ease^ for once^ Don’t over think things^ Don’t overthink the word believe^ This is your calling^ Farewell to my following ^ Sorry I can’t be there to speak your words^ My hands are tied^ They seek compassion^ Don’t let them hold your faith^ Build your boats they still won’t save you from this earthquake^ I make me sick^ You make yourself so sick^ With this world that we live in ^ Can you clean up your mess^ or will you bathe in the filth^ That you’ll be buried in^ This is our calling^ Farewell to my following
