A Fading Wing

Legacy of the broken things Gripping tragedy of a fading wing Melody, hear the devil sing Of the better things, just forget the ring Paralyze the fruit of your lies Fruit that you despise, yet the seeds still rise To the skies, though you hope it dies It waits for sunrise to blind your eyes Oh, light of home Oh, life is gone There's no bliss when my mind's like this When I wrap my fist 'round the things I miss Can you break my grip, let the memories drift Things that don't exist fall in this abyss Your reality keeps degrading me Stories full of glee, pages left empty Mocking me with your fantasy Can I be set free from your fallacies Oh, weight of words Oh, they still hurt I've given up and said I tried my best I let my shadow make my mind a mess If I don't stop this I'll be laid to rest By the bitterness inside my chest I've gotta wreck something to make this end I'll teach this circle how to break and bend I'll say goodbye to you, release your hand Watch you descend to your homeland You got me fighting myself like I'm Wrestling an angel Am I on the right side or Am I on the side that fell On and on inside my head I question life, I question death And then I start to lose my sense Of value for my innocence (Oh) I'm not omniscient, nah (No) But I'll never forget you Dragged me down but I won't give in, no I won't give up, no I won't give in, nah (Oh) Save your breath you'll be needing it (No) Sorry that flame that you're feeding is Taking all you have and dragging you under I ain't going down with you, have fun in the gutter
