Search For The Light

Tear me apart from the inside.

It hurts so bad, and you're killing me.

Tears of glass, they cut so deep.

My body aches; no, I can't sleep.

Broken down, not what I used to be.

All alone, and the nightmare's becoming me.

I can't find peace, I search for the light, but I'm in too deep. The light at the end of the tunnel is a lie, It's a freight train on hells' wheels, and It's heading for me.

Love is the meat grinder of hate.

What comes out used to be you.

Solitude, she beckons me,

At least this way I can be free.

Succubus, you never gave a damn,

You consumed my soul and left me for dead.

Although I search for the light, I can't find peace, but I'm in too deep. The light at the end of the tunnel is a lie, it's a freight train on hells' wheels, and it's coming for me.

So as you can see, there is no hope.

You're born to die and live through hell.

So open my chest and eat my heart.

Make another meal out of your broken promises.

Often I wonder, how peaceful death can be.

Anything's better than living in this hell you put me through.

I can't find peace, and although I search for the light, I'm always in too deep. The morning light I have always seen at the end of the tunnel is a lie, it's a god damn freight train, churning on hells' wheels, and this time it may take me.
