We all hide behind a mask

A product of our own self destructive past

We all ache for something deeper than the surface

Searching for anything to break the name "worthless".

If only we could see the damage we cause ourselves

It often seems our best intentions pave the road to hell

We do it to ourselves

It's got me overwhelmed.

I've never fallen this far

It's never been this dark.

Take me back to better days

Before I was a slave to the choices that I have made

There's gotta be a better way, this can't stay

Don't let me fade away, don't let me fade away.

Don't let me fade away, don't let me fade away

I just can't make another day

Don't let me fade away, don't let me fade away

I've been torn down to nothing.

We all want to be set free

Enslaved to emotions or someone we're ripping at the seams

Can't seem to stop the bleeding too blind to see

The cycle repeats.

Feels like I'm made to fail

You pick the coffin and I'll drive the nail.

You pick the coffin and I'll drive the nail.

Take me back to better days

Before I was a slave to the choices that I have made

There's gotta be a better way, this can't stay

Don't let me fade away, don't let me fade away.

Don't let me fade away, don't let me fade away

I just can't make another day

Don't let me fade away, don't let me fade away

I've been torn down to nothing.

We all hide behind a mask

We all want to be set free.

We all hide behind a mask

We all want to be set free.

If you can hear this, if you can feel this

Don't let me fade away, don't let me fade away

If you can hear this, if you can feel this

Don't let me fade away, don't let me fade away.

Give me a sign

Tell me everything will be alright

Give me a sign

These idle hands adept for a crime.
