Captives

Squander
I can confess but believe me it's true You walk all day in a fog of abuse When you see, we will be, at the front of the pack I know you won't care about what we lack I wish that we could all see How futile is our crying We'll sit and watch as all our seeds Will grow and bloom into nothing The soil is putrid and diseased Was it worth all this fighting? I'm just the sum of my bad deeds They'll swell and sprout into... Sprout into hate, it was no mistake You will find me drinking at the bottom of the lake I can't be sure of your intentions to love Broken, afraid Strength is hard to regain I can't be saved, I'll end up starving alone End of my days, You'll find me praying for grace I wish that we could all see How futile is our crying We'll sit and watch as all our seeds Songtexte Will grow and bloom into nothing The soil is putrid and diseased Was it worth all this fighting? I'm just the sum of my good deeds They'll swell and sprout into nothing I know I'm not okay But I'm not afraid, I'm not afraid I see my reflection It isn't clear, I'm not really here I know I'm not the same And I want to change, how can I change? I'm numb to everyone I swear to God, I'm at the very end of my rope I'm fading so fast I've lost who I am Sure, I'm still here But I can't comprehend Why I just can't be happy Even though everything seems so complete in harmony Something is not right Something's here with me You reek of deception The smell is rancid, how can one stand it? Your tongue is running rampant, lies so stagnant We are all the same A crowd of sinning saints Show some restraint Yeah, we are all the same Crying to be bathed Rotting youth of today We can't be saved, beating the corpse of a dead saint I know this scares you to hear, so blatantly spoken With lives so broken, it seems sure to me You won't be saving me Who are you my friend? Who was the one who let you in? I don't recognize your face It's so faint, another time, another place Who are you my dear? Who you are, I fear Who is this person in the mirror? How did you, end up here? (You've planted this seed in me. It's bloomed into such hatred for your wretched excuse for importance) Who are you to say? Who are you to lay? (with someone else) Who are you to love? Who are you to cry? Who are you to die? (Am I any lesser of a person because I don't live and breathe in the same sin and filth as you? I've found my own disease.) Aus Songtexte Mania
