Who Saves The Savior?

(So close, deceived by the window that should never have been open anyway).
Now that I know, I know they found a hole in me... They found a hole in me.
I’m tired of hiding my face from the likes of my shame.
The world seems different watched through vengeful eyes.
In a panic I pray for what I know is not right.
And they know just how to get to me.
So rest those eyes. It’s safe in here. Now take a breath.
I’ll tell you what you wanna know, what you oughta know about them here.
(Blame is always tied to lies)
A conversation with a ghost can save me from what weighs the most,
and lift it from my weary chest.
Though I may forget...
Though I may forget...
Though I may forget... Who I am.
And they know just how to get to me.
So rest those eyes. It’s safe in here. Now take a breath.
I’ll tell you what you wanna know, what you oughta know about them here.
(You shatter then break, we came too close to what we hated my love.
You’re sweet it’s sad I never heard your voice)
You’re sweet it’s sad I never heard your voice.
Drifting by the light of your eyes.
You start to believe just like.... like them, unlike me. Now take a bow.
And they know just how to get to me.
So rest those eyes. It’s safe in here. Now take a breath.
I’ll tell you what you wanna know, what you oughta know about them here.
(I feel the pressure, my nails against her. I’ll never let her, never let her go)

All our dreams left behind, in letters drawn out in lines.
(As I lay here now)
Here at the gates, here on the floor.
Where I live, you’ll find in a while.
It’s safe from the world, you’ll wanna know why.
Believe these words, the only light will change your mind.
It tells me all about my sins.
A bitter child never grows no matter how long it has been
since the offense that brought them down.
And so am I?
The picture fades, leaving no one, no one behind.
The picture fades, leaving no one, no one behind.
I came out laughing and pulled it together it made me what I was.
The champion that we.
And all we know is all because, we’re giving up.
Think back to when you were a child.
Think back, and notice how you’re nothing now.
The picture fades, leaving no one, no one behind.
The picture fades, leaving no one, no one behind.
I could’ve sworn that it was over and done.
I’ve broken promises, but I’m not the only one.
I’ve broken promises, but I’m not the only one.
The only one, the only one.
The picture fades, leaving no one, no one behind.
The picture fades, leaving no one, no one behind.

Now as I dream in (Four words) I find a way to express in my life
the idea behind acting not saying, and doing not dying.
This moment here is where these patterns collapse.
(and something born) and somethings born...
They move in numbers as they go,
each one a scar within my heart.
I watch in teams the seasons call,
each one is claiming their part.
And so you found me falling away, to be honest I'm not okay. (okay)
All I ever wanted was to show I could make it right. (To see)
Seeing now what it was I waited for, now it's all gone.
And now I'm waiting and torn apart. (Like this now)
Within your heart you wait alone.
(Within your heart I'll be alone and freezing)
From now on you won't even waste your time,
I'm not waiting for you. I'm done too.
(I fucking hate you!)
I've been wasting too much time
and now I need to find a place to call my own.
I don't mean to bleed you dry,
I need to breathe and now I know I'll make it on my own.
(While you're alone I dine on the unknown).
I'll rest my head, what defines you best?
(And my god takes it)
I'll reach and pick you up and now it's time to go.
(I'm making up my mind)
I'll reach and pick you up and now it's time to go
(How could such criminal eyes become the witness?
That which caused my demise)
They move in numbers as they go,
each one a scar within my heart.
I watch in teams the seasons call,
each one is claiming their part.

(With bated breath and bodies pouring from the sky,
The tattered wings of angels not equipped to fly will block the sun).
The black eyes of a stranger at my door,
they gaze through me as he gracefully assures that he has come in peace
and he will shortly be severing the arms of the traitors... the traitors.
Before long we’ll be searching for the arms of the savior,
it’s the wondering that makes this all so hard.
(There’s not a fucking thing that we can do)
We’re so alone, we need to change.
It’s taken us so long, we had to find our way.
We're so alone, we breathe the same.
It's taken us so long we had to find our way.
(Someone put this fucking fire out)
So blindly, we’re put use. A dark cloud is the illusion.
We are safe, we are safe.. Choiceless and erased.
I wanna know what your intentions were.
I wanna see right through your bitter skin.
We’re so alone, we need to change.
It’s taken us so long, we had to find our way.
I am the one you heard about.
Of dreams and of tyrants we’re falling out.
Falling out.
A light to guide us home, to change your life.
When fate arrives, I will know.
(This is the moment we pray for the souls missing, as I take the rage and go....
Too precious, let them go. I can’t, I’m far too sorted.
I am now the new reaper, look forward to hell dear. Look forward to me)

The way your broken heart becomes mine.
We lose part of ourselves over time, and I can’t avoid all the lies.
And I can’t avoid all the lies.
(As for these words that broke your heart)
I Apologize
(I searched for truth but found no words)
And I can’t escape all the lies
(So I become)
I Apologize
(The Riddle)
There’s simple reasons for this and I’d like to let it go.
We've got ourselves into this and I still think you should know
that you are the one that made it worth the fall.
You are the one...
(I’ve waited for so long)
For the chance to breathe before I rip you apart.
(As for these words that broke your heart)
I Apologize
(I searched for truth but found no words)
And I can’t escape all the lies
(So I become)
I Apologize
(The Riddle)
Feel the failure. (So do I. And we’re dead inside.)
Don’t waste this moment bleeding!
(I feel the failure rising deep inside my broken heart.
I’m feeling failed and spited deeply, I’ve been sold for parts.
So I’ve become, don’t take this personal, my own.
It dies now.)
Smile, I know that I won’t fall again, never again.
(As for these words that broke your heart)
I Apologize
(I searched for truth but found no words)
And I can’t escape all the lies
(So I become)
I Apologize
(The Riddle)
And I can’t escape all the lies

(On my word) How could it be that we may never know?
(We fall apart) What causes the screams?
The source may have a face of its own. (There's no one else)
I can't believe how far I've grown from hope.
(Who cares? In the end we'll let it go)
When you find your way.
The resurrection of what's dead inside
my bruised and battered mind becomes the only promise
yet, it seems unstable at best. (As I speak Right Now)
All I need right now. (I watch them die)
As I reached out for your hand not knowing you've gone away, bleeding..
I realize while I lie here just what I DIED FOR!
(On my word) How could it be that we may never know?
(We fall apart) What causes the screams?
The source may have a face of its own. (There's no one else)
I can't believe how far I've grown from hope.
(Who cares? In the end we'll let it go)
And when you find your way, I know you'll be forgiving then.
My dear until we see that day I volunteer to be the blame.
It's not too much to ask considering (I already am).
So take it out on me (Take it out! Take it out!)
But sleep tight angel the best is yet to come.
Hold tight and don't let go....
So get yourself out, get yourself safe. (Get out, get away)
I have no place to make demands and I know you won't believe in me,
so I'm coming home and I won't look back.
I've made the best of time to move on.
I'm stronger now and I'll scream out...
I'll make them listen if it kills me now,
(they'll listen if it kills me now).
Speak up my dear.
(I wasn't lying when I promised I would die for you),
as your reaching out for me,
(I never tried to break your heart, it's something I just do!)
I will remain on my knees...
breathe in for me, you're breathing for me...

As you whisper, point me towards the answer.
You know you are the only one who cares.
As you whisper, searching for the answer,
you know you are the only one who cares.
Now restless, close to giving up. (We find ourselves)
Like a blister in the sunlight. (Alone, alone)
Where we wait till we see you go... The one who brought the fire by.
I’ve been blessed by the reaching ones, not to judge the answer, know.
I’ve been blessed by the razor while... she holds.
And now the days of bleeding come to close, they're finding me all alone.
Like waves and satellites... I’ll find the rest in time.
(Will you crumble to pieces?) Cause that was not the answer I was hoping for.
(Before the answers come will you crumble beneath this?)
Cause that was not the answer I was hoping for.
No one will live, no reason why.
No reason at all to hide.
So run from this, no need to try.
You’ll see when your live's on fire.
So lend yourself to this. These moments will persist.
And in a mist you go, convinced of lies, you’re fine with your life in denial.
(As for the house that keeps burning, I never called it home.
I hate that fucking place and I don’t care if its ash, I hope they leave it a hole.
It’s never been so easy to let a person go.
I have no enemies, I have no worries left and now I want you to know,
as you’re dying right where I left you, that this is where I go)
As for the house that keeps on burning, I hope they burn it down.
I hope they burn it down, I hope they burn it down.
FEELS LIKE THEY’RE LISTENING
As you whisper, point me towards the answer.
You know you are the only one who cares.
As you whisper, searching for the answer,
you know you are the only one who cares.
And do you care?
And do you care?

(Heavy hearted with a map and a compass, I have no prisoners.
This ship is empty but it sails with a purpose, therefore shall see the earth.)
The earth, it rumbles beneath my feet,
when you’ve been through almost everything,
it’s the only thing you’ll need.
But I’m alright, and life is so unfair.
For what’s ahead there is no way to be prepared.
My new nightmare of traveling alone,
down this path tonight, is a waste of my time, I know.
The battle now to hold my head beneath this crown,
while they threaten to put me down.
Like a warrior I stood my ground.... Now.
There is no way to live through this.
We took the wrong road.
There was no way we could have known.
Even if fate is on your side, time is not... No.
(Now I’ll take your eyes!)
In those final moments you thought about me.
How I sold those lies, stole those perfect lives from you.
I didn’t want to be this evil man.
But I played the part so very well,
I played the part and now in hell
I look back at all the problems that I caused.
(The problems that I could avoid)
And my apologies won’t help now.
I Will Not!
(Action takes the place of reaction.
You will suffer child, I will not.
Action takes the place of reaction.
You will suffer child, I will not.
I will have scarred you. I Will!)
And there is no way to live through this.
We took the wrong road.
There was no way we could have known.
Even if fate is on your side, time is not... No.

(By cells, by cells and shadows, away we go.
We might not have any answers, but have no doubt that yours are wrong)
No chance of sleep, we’ll float away.
(This here is the sight of the murder)
In hopes we’ll make it through another day.
We need to find our home, if only you could stay. (Just stay)
[Chorus:]
She... She’s safe from my world, torn apart.
Too dark to find a home. Maybe my girl, we could start.
Now clear of hope, we’re on our own. How about a meeting of the minds?
You know that your arms are so tired. Even if we’re wrong.
We’d survive... we’d survive. Save the night.
[Chorus]
Now the world and all her tears are dreams.
(Dreams? I don’t dream anymore!)
