Well here comes that feeling again
the racing thoughts that plague my mind they never end
Fighting myself everyday
I just can't seem to find myself in this so called life
Acceptance of a failure that has yet to come
I find myself all too familiar with
this impending doom that overshadows who I am
WHO I AM
Inside a shell that I am only trapped inside
I find myself all too familiar with
this impending doom that overshadows who I am
WHO I AM
Inside a shell that I am only trapped inside
Inside a shell that I am only trapped inside
Inside a shell that I am only trapped inside
Inside a shell
Well I've said it before, all we want to do is fail
Well I've said it before, all we want to do is fail
Today I want to breathe, the fresh air that you gave me
Tomorrow brings a light, that I look forward to
Cursed we are in the dying of this light, that burns between my eyes
Cursed we are in the dying of this light, that burns between my eyes
Cursed we are in the dying of this light, that burns between my eyes
That burns between my eyes
Well here comes that feeling again
the racing thoughts that plague my mind they never end
Fighting myself everyday
I just can't seem to find myself in this so called life
Acceptance of a failure that has yet to come
It's that same repetition that keeps me on a mission
to do something important with my life
So much negativity spreading through ourselves
Passing on to one another, why can't we all just be positive
It's that same repetition that keeps me on a mission
to do something important with my life
So much negativity spreading through ourselves
Passing on to one another, why can't we all just be positive
Cursed we are in the dying of this light, that burns between my eyes
Cursed we are in the dying of this light, that burns between my eyes
I thought I saw you feel like you were in this moment
I never forget those eyes, like I meant something
I thought I saw you feel like you were in this moment
I never forget those eyes, like I meant something

Loathsome
Yet another day, yet another battle of this suffering
We just can't seem to co-exist
(You sleep away the pain)
You sleep away the pain, while I drink away feeling
that I once had, I have grown so numb
You sleep away the pain, while I drink away feeling
that I once had, I have grown so numb
I have become so loathsome
the air I breathe it stings my lungs
The sights you see, it blinds your heart
Everything in your existence
Revolves around you, or so it seems
You sleep away the pain, while I drink away feeling
that I once had, I have grown so numb
You sleep away the pain, while I drink away feeling
that I once had, I have grown so numb
You sleep away the pain, while I drink away feeling
that I once had, I have grown so numb
The things that we think we hear eachother say
It's all because we are not even listening
I have become so loathsome
the air I breathe it stings my lungs
The sights you see, it blinds your heart
Everything in your existence
Revolves around you, or so it seems
Communication has been lacking
Refusal to accept the way things are has become a problem
You are so selfish and you hate to admit it
because you are the center of your own universe
Communication has been lacking
Refusal to accept the way things are has become a problem
You are so selfish and you hate to admit it
because you are the center of your own universe
Yet another day, yet another battle of this suffering
We just can't seem to co-exist
(You sleep away the pain)
but I am the one who always has to apologize for the way I feel
The sights you see, it blinds your heart
The sights you see, it blinds your heart
I have no friends
I am just an existence
Evaporating quickly
You sleep away the pain, while I drink away feeling
that I once had, I have grown so numb
You sleep away the pain, while I drink away feeling
that I once had, I have grown so numb
You sleep away the pain, while I drink away feeling
that I once had, I have grown so numb

Fruition
It has come to my attention
that this day is no longer meant for either of us
Let the lifeless have their way
Lurking in the shadows of insecurity
and we will go onto our own
to another brighter moment
Where the light shines and the darkness
has long faded away
Where we can be ourselves and pain only exists
in the memory of yesterday
I would die for you just to live another day
To breathe in this life and to live your dreams
You mean so much to me
That I cannot even express the way I feel about you
in my heart
It has come to my attention
that this day is no longer meant for either of us
We must fight through the pain
to get what we deserve
There is a light at the end of the tunnel
That we both will see at the end of the day
This heaven lies only beyond this hell
the eternal abyss is just a void
We must attempt to crossover the waves
that crash in between us
and swim our way onto our own little paradise
We must fight through the pain
to get what we deserve
There is a light at the end of the tunnel
That we both will see at the end of the day
This heaven lies only beyond this hell
the eternal abyss is just a void
We must attempt to crossover the waves
that crash in between us
and swim our way onto our own little paradise
You mean so much to me
That I cannot even express the way I feel about you
in my heart
We were meant to be more than what we have become
The distance between our hopes and dreams
are closer than we imagine
We must conquer all of our demons in order to reap the benefits
The kingdoms of heaven and hell is what we lie between
We must fight through the pain
to get what we deserve
There is a light at the end of the tunnel
We must fight through the pain
to get what we deserve
There is a light at the end of the tunnel
I would die for you just to live another day
To breathe in this life and to live your dreams
I would die for you just to live another day
To breathe in this life and to live your dreams

Miseries
There are no thoughts to unleash on a sheet of paper
There are too many words lingering in the depths of my heart
but I will persevere
The darkness that pulls me closer
to the shore of my own dream
And if I drown before my body reach the land
deeper than what lies beneath the raging ocean
Does this beauty lose its light underneath
or am I waiting for something that will never happen
and yet lifes brightest stars rise above the troubled sea
The agony in which day dims from all of our vision
The black night seems to pull everything together
And if I drown before my body reach the land
deeper than what lies beneath the raging ocean
Does this beauty lose its light underneath
or am I waiting for something that will never happen
and yet lifes brightest stars rise above the troubled sea
The agony in which day dims from all of our vision
The black night seems to pull everything together
The agony in which day dims from all of our vision
The black night seems to pull everything together
As an angel of light bathes us in its ecstasy
He opened our eyes to the fractured sky
Only a bittersweet mirage that is tempting my cold heart
Underneath the world where dreams are silent
Whispering to my memory
And if I drown before my body reach the land
deeper than what lies beneath the raging ocean
Does this beauty lose its light underneath
or am I waiting for something that will never happen
and yet lifes brightest stars rise above the troubled sea
The agony in which day dims from all of our vision
The black night seems to pull everything together
The agony in which day dims from all of our vision
The black night seems to pull everything together
As an angel of light bathes us in its ecstasy
He opened our eyes to the fractured sky
Only a bittersweet mirage that is tempting my cold heart
Underneath the world where dreams are silent
Whispering to my memory
There are no thoughts to unleash on a sheet of paper
There are too many words lingering in the depths of my heart
but I will persevere
The darkness that pulls me closer
to the shore of my own dream
There are no thoughts to unleash on a sheet of paper
There are too many words lingering in the depths of my heart
but I will persevere
The darkness that pulls me closer
to the shore of my own dream

Repetitions
I have felt this feeling before
It is a memory that I cannot shake
Where was I in this moment that brought me to this realization
Oh how I love these moments that bring me to a
Reminiscence of my childhood, I want to bring it back
Suffering everyday that I have to go on
Will I finally accept the things that I can't change
It seems like the dreadful are rewarded
It seems like the ones who follow the path are punished every day
It seems like the dreadful are rewarded
It seems like the ones who follow the path are punished every day
I have felt this feeling before
It is a memory that I cannot shake
Where was I in this moment that brought me to this realization
Oh how I love these moments that bring me to a
Reminiscence of my childhood, I want to bring it back
Suffering everyday that I have to go on
Will I finally accept the things that I can't change
Suffering everyday that I have to go on
Will I finally accept the things that I can't change
My young life, months or even days ago
Feelings of remorse I can deal without
Feelings of happiness is what I live for
My young life, months or even days ago
Feelings of remorse I can deal without
Feelings of happiness is what I live for
Another day, another repetition
Let me try to change what this life has in store for me
I will make something of myself
I will make something of myself
I will make something of myself
It seems like the dreadful are rewarded
It seems like the ones who follow the path are punished every day
It seems like the dreadful are rewarded
It seems like the ones who follow the path are punished every day
It seems like the dreadful are rewarded
It seems like the ones who follow the path are punished every day
It seems like the dreadful are rewarded
It seems like the ones who follow the path are punished every day

Worthless
As I sit here feeling sorry for myself
I wonder how many out there feel the same
Reverse the thought of negativity
Start building towards all your dreams
Release the light inside
Release the light of your dream
As I sit here feeling sorry for myself
I wonder how many out there feel the same
Reverse the thought of negativity
Start building towards all your dreams
Release the light that is inside of you
and you will see the change
Connection with another is the key
All it takes is one thing
Release the light inside
Release the light of your dream
Release the light that is inside of you
and you will see the change
Connection with another is the key
All it takes is one thing
I feel so worthless I'm coming down from yesterday
It was only a dream now get back up on your own feet
and try it all again tomorrow
Pain only dwells in the past, waves will wash it all away
The endless repetition of a constant reminiscion
is a deadly combination in the feeble mind of an individual
Life is not a competition, so be weary of collision
of people without a mission, wandering aimlessly through this life
I feel so worthless I'm coming down from yesterday
It was only a dream now get back up on your own feet
and try it all again tomorrow
Pain only dwells in the past, waves will wash it all away
The endless repetition of a constant reminiscion
is a deadly combination in the feeble mind of an individual
Life is not a competition, so be weary of collision
of people without a mission, wandering aimlessly through this life

I try to speak but the words will not leave my body
They are held prisoner inside of my own mind
Oh how I wish that these words would flow like the wind in your hair
Instead they crash like thunder on my tongue
Fumbling out of my mouth
beyond any comprehension
The battle that lies in between ourselves
The repetition of monotony is what brings me close to the edge
Just another day in the life of Zachary
No need to listen what I say isn't important anyway
As the darkness of my sould overtakes all that I am
and what I live to be
I can feel the malocchio overpower the thought of my dream
Just another day in the life of Zachary
No need to listen what I say isn't important anyway

Mephitic
I have tried so hard to stay within myself
I feel my life withering away
How do I get back what I cannot have
I want to take it back
I have tried so hard to stay within myself
I feel my life withering away
How do I get back what I cannot have
I want to take it back
Life has hit rock bottom and I rise
So tired of being who I was in this life
I now realize that things can change
Because I have lives depending on me
Life has more meaning than it ever had
Little eyes staring at me
Life has more meaning than it ever had
Little eyes staring at me
Life has hit rock bottom and I rise
Tired of being who I was in this life
I now realize that things can change
Because I have lives depending on me
Life has more meaning than it ever had
Little eyes staring at me
Life has more meaning than it ever had
Little eyes staring at me
Life has more meaning than it ever had
Little eyes staring at me
Life has more meaning than it ever had
Little eyes staring at me

Captivate
I awoke my vision distorted
Am I awake or in a dream
Staggering, I view myself inside the mirror
Face melting, will I survive?
My body pulsing, the void is calling
struggle to break free
but pulled benath the water
Drowning, gasping
This colorful net only holds me further
No, it can't and shouldn't contain me
Constantly bombarded with the feeling
that I've been here before
I can't give in
Inside the soul is bleeding
the warmth it flows
Searching which way to go
I feel it's never ending
the grind so captivating
Sacred shapes are gathered in my mind
They speak a different language
I can't understand
I feel it's never ending
the grind so captivating
Sacred shapes are gathered in my mind
No, it can't and shouldn't contain me
Constantly bombarded with the feeling
that I've been here before
I can't give in
Inside the soul is bleeding
the warmth it flows (Breathing)
Searching which way to go
I feel it's never ending
the grind so captivating
Sacred shapes are gathered in my mind
They speak a different language
I can't understand
I feel it's never ending
the grind so captivating
Sacred shapes are gathered in my mind
