Youve watched me grow
The seed you sow
A flask of wine
No one dials my line

I breathe and my heart beats
It burns and it bleeds
The eyeliner i wear
The mask... people stare

Was once a warrior
But the axe came down
Cracked open its over
The pain i faced as i was drowned

Sorrows will come tomorrow
As i was happy today
Maybe next, but who knows?
What can i say

Im just like you
Two eyes and a smile
But deep down
We are all in denial

Im trying to write
But my mind strolls away
I feel i should lie
So we dont go a stray

Maybe its best if i take a break
The gods only know
How much i can take

Speak to me soon
Speak to me true
I do not know what to do
Ive got no one but you

I may be a sinner
I may regret things
My emotions are growing thinner
Just listen and think

I try and i try for the better
To get rid of this black dog
I try and i try for the better
To take the weight off of my back
I try and i try for the better
As i look up to the gods
I try and i try for the better

But i still cant hold my tears back
