In My Blood

Time heals my eyes

But not what they've seen

And the mirror tells only lies

I walk in darkness

Lost in your fortress

Trying to find some peace of mind

I can't see that there's a way out

You chew on the sanity left in me

In my blood, through my veins

And now you fill my brain

Open truth torn away

I've lost another day

In my blood, through my veins

And now you fill my brain

Hope and truth torn away

I'm drowning in my pain

Now I'm twisted up

And mislead like a story with no end

And they still fear me

Though I can't break free

From the shit you've given me

I don't need your traditions

You just love the power over me

In my blood, through my veins

And now you fill my brain

Open truth torn away

I've lost another day

In my blood, through my veins

And now you fill my brain

Hope and truth torn away

I'm drowning in my pain

I can't see that there's a way out

And you just need to leave me be

In my blood, through my veins

And now you fill my brain

Open truth torn away

I've lost another day

In my blood, through my veins

And now you fill my brain

Hope and truth torn away

I'm drowning in my pain

Waiting for the time to come

When I will need no-one

Dead and boxed this pain long gone

This cannot be undone

I lived my life day by day

Watching myself decay

And prayed the world would go away

I'm drowning in my pain
