lyrics

Are you lying again?
My barrel pressed on your head
Oh no
Another pound of pressure on the trigger
What's going through your mind?
I'm thinking back in time
Oh no
Another pound of pressure on the trigger
Before I cross the line

Another night I lie awake
Affected by your poison
You slipped it in so easily
So off guard I lose feeling
You were my center
A god in my eyes
So what am I supposed to do?
When I'm stricken down
I choose to hide
I choose to hide
I choose to hide
I choose to hide, hide, hide

I ran
As far as my body could go
My mind
Stayed unbearably close to home

So don't say you had hope then
You knew I'd have to come back
So don't say you had hope then
There's no resolution when you choose to hide

I stand
Lost in the great divide
Contemplating
My eternal fight or flight
If I strike you down now
The cycle will be complete
And I will become you
I wish I could just leave
And wave goodbye
And wave goodbye
And wave goodbye
Goodbye

Are you crying again
Afraid to deal death's hand
Oh no
Maybe I'm not what you said I am

Your venom
Fueled me
Took from me
And I kept moving on
Darkness
Fading
As the night
Lifts up the sun
Release
My grip
It's not worth
To keep holding on
Compassion
Drives me
Divides me
And I kept moving on
And I kept moving on
And I kept moving on
