these tears run down my face

of signs of redemtion

i swallow in my sadness

i'll never pull a shame

hung by strings like puppets in a play

run like slaves

nowhere to escape

no sun burns through these darkening days

hard to imagine i could be this way

i bleed for you

i bleed for you

i hate to see these darkening days

so deep my motivation

when the time is on my side

everything ive had ive wasted

ive gambled all my life

hung by strings like puppets in a play

run like slaves

nowhere to escape

no sun burns through these darkening days

hard to imagine i could be this way

i believe you

believe you

i hate to see these darkening days

looks like all the time

i need to unwind

i cant be the way you wanted me to be

constant pride

ive frozen mine

im losing mine

hung by strings

run like slaves

no sun burns through these darkening days

hard to imagine i could be this way

i believe you

believe you

i hate to see these darkening days

no sun burns through these darkening days

hard to imagine i could be this way

i believe you

believe you

i hate to see these darkening days

these darkening days
