Death Awaits
Picture this for a moment
as you lay your head
the walls are falling around you
but you're trapped in bed
paralysed and powerless
you look at him surprised
A face you've seen before
yet a stranger through your eyes
He's heard the lies you've spoken
so many times
When it's all revealed
when the truth has come to light
you will fall from grace
and re-live all of your mistakes
You thought it was washed away
it put your mind at ease
but the sky was falling towards you
And you were to blind to see
He speaks the words you've spoken
to you this time
How does it feel to be helpless
you can't escape your fate
death awaits
how does it feel to be helpless
lay in the bed you've made
death awaits

I Remember

As he grew up his life was
Always Falling Down
Isolated from help and protection
Battered and bruised as he
Fell to the ground
He treated him the same
for 15 years everyday he cried
mentally drained
Physically broken
one step closer to suicide
If you could travel back
through these nightmares
and find the face from which I ran
Hopeless dreams
Helpless cries and times where
he tried to take his life
I remember crying out your name
I remember lying there in pain
emotional scars remain today
because of what you put me through
I'l never be like you!
If only you could see me now
what would you say to me?
do you think that you'd be proud
of what your son came to be..
I remember crying out your name
I remember lying there in pain
emotional scars remain today
because of what you put me through
I'l never be like you!

One Must Be Told
I've done it again
and I don't know why
with no one to blame this time
it was only me
they say we can change
that we can tell right from wrong
but in the heat of the moment
our souls belong
Here I am waiting for you
to let me go
the sweetest lie,
the bitter truth, only one must be told
The secrets I've told
about my history
but why can't I change this time
when she is right for me
Here I am waiting for you
to let me go
the sweetest lie,
the bitter truth, only one must be told

Out of the sky
he flies before me
with such beauty and grace
alone in the night
He takes my hand
Together we escape.
We drift above the moonlit sea
between the silver clouds
his gentle voice begins to speak
I'm taking you home,
to where you belong
I will never leave you alone
Where have you been all my life
the constant war the pain and strife
never ending life of despair
why weren't you there?
why did you wait until I died?
A ravishing sight lies before me
descending to paradise
pristine and unharmed
a perfect land, is this the home of christ?
In a state of serenity
we lay beneath the stars
he answers all the questions I ask
why am I here?
Is this my new home?
will this all disappear?
Where have you been all my life
the constant war, the pain and strife
never ending life of despair
why did you wait until I died??
Where have you been all my life
the vile times
the agony
never ending life of despair
were you really watching over me??
A voice begins to call my name,
reminiscent of the one who took my life.
Out of the shadows his face became clear
a life of crime stricken with fear
unafraid I looked him in the eyes
full of sorrow and endless cries

Watch Me Bleed

Weak and frail
to escape is a fairy tale
bound by chains
and my words all sound the same
Pain and time
together intertwined
my memories
Begin to play tricks on me
Fear washed away
All hope is lost
only my name will remain
Seen by this world
screams are not heard
only my name will remain
I see the shadows
begin to take my mind
my soul arises to the sky
You take what I own
and the world will grieve
the power you hold
is used and you
watch me bleed
You take what I own
as I bow at your knees
the power you hold
is used and you
watch me bleed
