This Dying Soul

Lyrics

Hello, Mirror
 So glad to see you my friend, it's been a while
 Searching, Fearless
 Where do I begin to heal this wound of self-denial?
 Face yourself man!
 Brace yourself and
 Trace your hell back
 You've been
 Blinded
 Living lie a one way
 Cold existence
 All the while
 Now it's
 Time to
 Stare the problem right between
 The eyes
 You long lost child
 I wanna feel your body breaking
 Wanna feel your body breaking
 And shaking
 And left in the cold
 I want to heal your conscience making
 A change to fix this dying soul
 This Dying Soul
 ♪
 This Dying Soul
 Born into this world a broken home
 ♪
 Surrounded by love yet all alone
 Forced into a life that's split in two
 A mother and a father both pulling you
 Then you had to deal with loss and death
 Everybody thinking they know best
 Coping with this shit at such an age
 Can only fill a kid with pain and rage
 Family disease pumped through your blood
 Never had the chance you thought you could
 Running all the while with no escape
 Turning all that pain in to blame and hate
 Living on your own by twenty one
 Not a single care and having fun
 Consuming all the life in front of you
 Burning out the fuse and smoking the residue
 Possessive obsessions
 Selfish childish games
 Vengeful resentments
 Passing all the blame
 ♪
 Living out a life of decadence
 Acing without thought of consequence
 Spreading all your lies from coast to coast
 While spitting on the ones that matter most
 Running power mad with no control
 Fighting for the credit they once stole
 No one can ever tell you what to do
 Ruling other's lives while the can't stand
 The thought of you
 A living reflection
 Seen from miles away
 A hopeless affliction
 Having run astray
 ♪
 I wanna feel your body breaking
 Wanna feel your body breaking
 And shaking
 And left in the cold
 I want to heal your conscience making
 A change to fix this dying soul
 This Dying Soul
 ♪
 This dying soul
 ♪
 Now that you can see
 All you have done
 It's time to take that step
 Into the kingdom
 All your sins will
 Only make you strong
 And help you break right
 Through the prison wall
 ♪
 Come to me my friend
 (Listen to me)
 I'll help this torture end
 (Help to set me free)
 Let your ego go
 (I can't carry this load)
 You can't go through this alone
 (I feel so hopeless and exposed)
 You'll find your peace of mind
 (Give me some direction)
 You can no longer hide
 (Break out of this isolation)
 Let humility
 (Openness, honesty)
 And become what you can be
 (A healing tranquility)
 Help me
 Save me
 Heal me
 I can't break out of this prison all alone
 ♪
 These tormenting ghosts of yesterday
 Will vanish when exposed
 You can't hold onto your secrets
 They'll only send you back alone
 Your fearless admissions
 Will help expel your destructive obsessions
 With my help I know you can
 Be at one with God and man
 ♪
 Hear me
 Believe me
 Take me
 I'm ready to break right through this prison wall
