I've been waiting for a shot at redemption Won't be held down anymore Racing thoughts and this depression Beat me while I'm on the floor Like a fire burning inside I'm leaving this life there's a cold paranoia telling me I won't get it right But I know I can leave my fears behind I won't be a prisoner of time I won't back down I'll bury your crown but you'll never get the best of me And I Stand Tall can't make me fall No I'm never gonna to fade away bury me and burn me to ashes bury me I'll be ok I won't back down I'll bury your crown But you'll never get the best of me I've been breaking my walls inch by inch That I built from your careless words Jump through hoops to gain your affection won't be who I was before With my back against the wall I will stand and fight With this world bearing down I will bring my world to light Everything I want and everything I've dreamed It's all standing right in front of me I won't back down I'll bury your crown but you'll never get the best of me And I Stand Tall can't make me fall No I'm never gonna fade away bury me and burn me to ashes bury me I'll be ok I won't back down I'll bury your crown But you'll never get the best of me Won't be a slave to my demons anymore I'm taking this whole fucking world by storm The pain The shame Of life with no gain This is the end of your reign Bury me burn me to ashes Bury me I'll be okay I won't back down I'll bury your crown but you'll never get the best of me And I Stand Tall can't make me fall No I'm never gonna fade away bury me and burn me to ashes bury me I'll be ok I won't back down I'll bury your crown But you'll never get the best of me

Do you feel the void inside your heart They set out just to tear you apart Kick you while you're down and keep you on the ground But there is always hope to be found Rise up, stand out, and be loud Or the world won't let you make a sound Show them all who should be proud Don't let them bring you down Gotta find our voice gotta stand for something We can't let them think that we're here for nothing They thrive We die We're wrong They're right Our lives are filled with hopeless nights Gotta light a spark till we're burning inside Our hope is the fuel that we use to ignite We fight Survive Revolt Revive Rise up and keep the fire alive Overcome their words They're just a part of the herd Another hanger on Another anchor gone Deadweight shed in the middle of the ocean The currents strong But this life is long So just hold your head up high Don't just pass on by They won't hear our cries Keep the fire alive Gotta find our voice gotta stand for something We can't let them think that we're here for nothing They thrive We die We're wrong They're right Our lives are filled with hopeless nights Gotta light a spark till we're burning inside Our hope is the fuel that we use to ignite We fight Survive Revolt Revive Rise up and keep the fire alive They pushed us aside for too long It's always the same old song We will stand for what we believe In Triumph and in defeat We fight Survive Rise up keep the fire alive We fight Survive Rise up keep the fire alive Gotta find our voice gotta stand for something We can't let them think that we're here for nothing They thrive We die We're wrong They're right Our lives are filled with hopeless nights Gotta light a spark till we're burning inside Our hope is the fuel that we use to ignite We fight Survive Revolt Revive Rise up and keep the fire alive

I'll just end up broken in the end I've been waiting for too long I've been faded night till Dawn I've been chasing something It may be nothing But I can't move on And I wonder Exactly what it takes to make you think of me And I'm over Seeing you in tears cause he left you here selfishly But it's always the same Locked away My heart is a prison So now I'll just stay Nothing that you can do can fix me Can't find the reasons No one will understand Nobody can save me I'll just end up broken in the end I can't take it when you're gone I keep explaining that I'm wrong I keep saving the things that made me a king But I know I'm not one I'm hoping Everywhere you look your thoughts are hooked on me And I'm coping With how my heart tears every time you stare right past me Locked away My heart is a prison So now I'll just stay Nothing that you can do can fix me Can't find the reasons No one will understand Nobody can save me I'll just end up broken in the end Get me out and Make this better Tell me it won't hurt forever Get me out and make this better I can't hold back I can't forget her Locked away My heart is a prison So now I'll just stay Nothing that you can do can fix me Can't find the reasons No one will understand Nobody can save me I'll just end up broken in the end

I begged God to strike me down I looked up to the sky with no answers to be found Banged up! This is who I am A product of the worlds wrath I'm going down a dark path Back up! You don't understand I'm living like a madman Tell me how this all began God I've tried to get out of this state of mind I Collide I blackout it's not justified No balance for malice Living a life so calloused The silence is timeless There's never ending violence Just step back get away far away from me I wanna see how it feels watching as they bleed You don't know what's really happening You're seeing the dark heart in me Stand Down! As my world turns black The demon makes its way back Forcing me to attack Shot down! This place Goes to Hell I'm giving you this farewell While dropping like a bombshell Help me now Before I've crossed the fucking line Get me out I don't wana live a lie Just step back get away far away from me I wanna see how it feels watching as they bleed You don't know what's really happening You're seeing the dark heart in me Incinerate the world Turn it to Ash Plague after plague I wanna see the collapse

I can't keep playing these games You're nothing but a fake You were never there anyways Your mask just Falls right off A coin doesn't care how it lays There will always be two faces Your pictures been erased I'm done I've had enough You're caught up in your lies And your disguise is wearing thin And in time You'll find yourself alone again You can't say you're a victim anymore I've heard the words And it's always the same You Slither like a snake While you play your games It's a joke in your eyes It's no surprise you don't give a fuck about any of our lives You're just Mindless Treating others like they're lifeless Abusing vices Acting like you're timeless Well the clock is ticking down I'll be there just to watch you go out You're caught up in your lies And your disguise is wearing thin And in time You'll find yourself alone again You can't say you're a victim anymore I've had enough of the shit you put me through I'm done giving in to you Your lies mean nothing to anyone You can't hide from a Smoking Gun Ahh! You can't hide from a Smoking gun You're caught up in your lies And your disguise is wearing thin And in time You'll find yourself alone again You can't say you're a victim anymore

I always knew it was a matter of time You left me in a desert chained to your mind And we've been going round in circles for a while I'm pushing through the pain to see you smile If you could walk in my shoes for a mile You'd break these chains and say your goodbyes We fall down, pick it up, then we put it back Then we wonder why we're so quick to react Always yell, always scream, always snapping back I always swore to myself I'd never push you back You tried your best You tear me down I did my worst I hurt you now But in the end I blame myself Please don't go I need your help I just wanted to say your spectrum is a little gray Don't say I never tried Don't say you never lied to me Why did we turn into everything we hate I just wanted to say Maybe we can try again someday This isn't what I want This is how it has to be To live, to love, to grow We gotta move on And I just wanted you to know Every breath I take isn't any easier No it's not your fault But I go back every time no matter how hard I try And the road seems to go both ways Our intentions are questioned It's clear that we've overstayed Tell me again how I fucked it all up I lied to your face yah I'll take the fault But you never wanna hear the truth You just use and use (It's not like you're listening) Always acting like I'm fucking stupid or confused I don't play these games and neither should you Can we find the common ground what do we do I swear I'll always love you but I'm sick of being abused Tired of these games I just wanna trust you I just wanted to say That your spectrum is a little gray Don't say I never tried Don't say you never lied to me Why did we turn into everything we hate I just wanted to say Maybe we can try again someday This isn't what I want This is how it has to be To live, to love, to grow We gotta move on I wish I could shake you awake You know I made a mistake You never really cared about anything You always say I'm the one to blame I gave it everything But you just walked away I just wanted to say (I just wanted you to know) That your spectrum is a little gray Don't say I never tried Don't say you never lied to me Why did we turn into everything we hate I just wanted to say (I wish that you would go) Maybe we can try again someday (I don't think so) This isn't what I want This is how it has to be To live, to love, to grow We gotta move on
