FROM THE BEGINNING AND ALL THE WAY TO THE END YOU WERE A FRIEND
INDEED IN MY TIME OF NEED
THE "FAKE" SIDE TAKES CONTROL TO STAB ME IN THE BACK
WITH ALL THE KNOWLEDGE YOU HAVE DRAINED FROM MY HEART
GOOD THING IT WAS ALREADY BROKEN AND FROM OLD WOUNDS RIPPED APART
THE PAST IS WHAT CHANGED ME AND MADE ME WHAT I AM TODAY AND THE MORE IT SUCKS
I AM ANGRY AND COLD AND GREATLY FUCKED...MENTAL, INSANE AND SUCH
FOR ONE, I LIKE BEING ALONE, JUST ME AND MYSELF CANT DO ME WRONG
I LIVE THROUGH MY MIND WHERE I BELONG
AS I SIFT THROUGH THE ASHES INSIDE WHERE MY FIRE IS BURNING STRONG

THE DEVIL'S SIDE?
THE PATH I CHOOSE TO PULL MY STRENGTH AND REST MY PRIDE
ALL OTHER OPTIONS DONE FUCKED, HAVE FAILED, KILLED ME INSIDE
MY WANTS AND MY WILL FOREVER DENIED...I'M BURIED ALIVE
FUCK IT, I'VE GOT ENOUGH SKELETONS OF MY OWN THAT I CARE LESS IF I SEE MORE
NOT EVEN EXCITED AT THE THRILL TO SEE BLOOD AND GORE
I'M CREATING MY OWN WOUNDS TO EXPLORE

WHAT?
I'M NOT MYSELF LATELY, WHY?
MY HATE IS BORN THROUGH THE PEOPLE THAT HAVE CHANGED ME
I NEVER ASK FOR MUCH BUT FROM THESE HANDS I CANT GIVE ENOUGH
I'VE GIVEN IN TO ALLOW ALL TO TAKE AWAY FROM ME ALL THAT YOU CAN
FOR IT SEEMS WHEN I'M "DOWN", THOSE THAT PRETEND TO CARE TAKE PRIDE AND MORE TO FEEL LIKE A BETTER MAN
I AM NOTHING, I HAVE NOTHING, YOU WALK AWAY
I LIVE, I GIVE, YOU STAY
I HAVE NOTHING TO OFFER BUT THE COLD DEPTHS OF ME
HOLLOW AND COLD TO WHICH I DO NOT WANT TO BE FREE
SURROUNDED, DROWNING IN MY OWN HATE
THIS FROWN IS YET A SMILE OF THE MISERY I ATE
I SWALLOW ENOUGH SHIT TO SPLATTER THE TRUTH
I LEAVE IT ALL BEHIND WITH WHAT WAS FED FROM MY YOUTH
