The broken windows
A crack in the door
They're watching
If you cannot tell,
I'm stuck in this hell
So save me
Afraid to know
How long I've been waiting alone
Came to a halt
Connected to nothing at all
The room painted black
The knife on the desk
So tempting
The blood on the floor
The hole in the wall
So eerie
Cried for help but
I got no answer

Walked in the dark, alone
You've lost yourself again
What started out as a bet
Turned into a trap
So innocent and pure
You walked into this maze
Before you can react
There's no turning back
Initially
You had the faith
To keep yourself living through the game
But as you go
You realized
That something just didn't work the same
And suddenly
Within a twist
You curled up into a ball and cry
And finally
Too fast to see
You gave up reaching the end of the line
Struggling to find
The exit far ahead
Collapsing on the ground
For countless of times
Remaining hope of life
Has vanished from your eyes
You're not getting up this time
For another try
Hear your heartbeat slowing down
See your last breath running out
The one last farewell to this world
Another victim of
The arrogance, died in confusion

I looked away
And you're gone
I tried to find you
But you left me no trace
I don't believe
It's just like a dream
A lonely flower
In the middle of nowhere
So close to me
Yet you're so far away
I can't carry on
For you are not with me
Don't leave me here
It's not fair
Turned away from me
And you never look back
I won't believe
It all feels unreal
The lonely flower
In the middle of nowhere
(I should not have looked away)
I can't carry on..

Carry me
Forgotten and unseen
A goal that cannot be reached
What is that you're saying?
Let me scratch off your name
From the list
Wait for it
Dead, it seems to be
Regretting taking the pill
Walking into mystery
Returning with my soul lost ever since
Paralyzed and tied down to a chair
Please get out of my head
The one last hope that disappeared
Execute the mercy that remained
I'll never be the same
The tears that turned into a mask
I believe
That it was meant to be
When we fell into a dream
It's not that complicated
But I'm too scared to even take the leap
Restlessly
My mind kept crystal clear
Holding my breath in fear
Hidden underneath me
The paranoia, please don't leave me here

I have tried
Doing everything I can
To save you from this end
But as they said
There is no escape
There's no turning back
from this
Time will pass
Take away what once exists
No matter who you are
What you have done
Or where you have been
What songs you've played
Or what you have said
===========================
Barely seemed alive
There has been a sign
The color, it won't shine
Time to say goodbye
To go a different way
To sing in tune again
And maybe I should give you
Another chance
===========================
I did not
Treat you as well as I can
You withered away
So fast
Too early to go
Shouldn't be alone
Like this
Cut down with a knife
Take you one by one
Struggling to learn
Twisted, and return
So long, my friend
It's good to have you here
Cannot be undone
Can't be put back on
Ruined at the end
Never be the same
Farewell, the time, we've shared
"Please
carry on
Don't let go
Just a little more"
You
didn't care
Nor you can
Anyway

The clock went around and around
That time of the year had arrived somehow
Sooner and sooner it came
Forced us to hide in the shade
And as the time went on
We gradually got used to it
Learning to live with the haze
As everything should be
Tried to strike a balance, but all went in vain
I had pushed the button, nothing really changed
All that's said and done, I still got no response
Starring at each other, wondering what went wrong
Slowly lost the patience, luck was running out
"Only you and me are in this room right now"
Letting out a sigh, at my own foolish moves
Only one way left, I'll set the whole thing from the start
How could this happen to me?
I worked so hard for a peace of mind
To calm myself in this state
"I need you to cooperate"
An inanimate object
What was I hoping to achieve?
I did not understand
As I gave it up in the end

Tried to get away
Coming back to me
Quietly crawling under my skin
Leaving no comment
Terrifying glance
Piercing through the wound in my hand
Shown in black and white
There's nowhere to hide
Grabbing on the edge to survive
Kick me in the face
Push me down a cliff
Never had a chance for a ride
Now that it's your turn
I have been through this
A curse that you cannot hide away...from
Would you hurt yourself
For someone that you love
Even someone you've never met
Answer me right now
Tell me that is true
Don't give me that look on your face
I know that it's hard
But it's the only way
Do something that you won't regret
You said that it can't be done
But I've shown you that it's not
I know how it feels to be
Thrown away when hopes were gone
In the end, you have the choice
To save a life or not
Just look me in the eyes
And smile
Bloodstain on your hands
Still you hesitate
Knowing that it was the last chance
Look at what you've done
He will be the next
Haunted by the ghost from the past
Still you broke the rule
Live another day
Taking life from another man
It's the only way
Just give me a rest
The disappointed look on your face
You're just another victim of love

I've never seen your face
Why would someone like you visit here
So young and innocent
This is not somewhere that you should be
You're acting really weird
It makes me wonder if we've ever met...before?
Been staying here for years
An empty space in my mind disappeared
Wait a minute
Isn't this where my worst nightmare should end?
I've been stuck in here, cannot escape
I should never, sell my soul
Even if there's nothing left
My life, taken, away
What have you done to me?
I knew you are the one holding the key
In actuality
I knew you are the one who broke the deal
"I'm just a homeless man
Forget about the words I said
Look at yourself instead
You know there's no turning back"
"You're finally awake
Been sleeping for an eternity"
I remembered everything
I will find myself again

A ten out of ten, a perfect beginning
But somehow you feel, empty inside
After a while, you realized something
That you're just a ghost, stuck in the past
Everything, up to this point
Has nothing to do with your life
Might as well, throw it out and far away
So unreal, is this my life?
In the end, won't matter anyway
Might as well, start it all over again
Look at you now, broken and helpless
You've lost the will, for another step
Your heart and your soul, frozen and lifeless
You've lost the hope, for another day
Surrender and give in
And have the angel set you free
Hope someone else will be
Over the other side, waiting

The sound, fades in
As it, should be
The cries, died out
Killing, in the scene
And time, it went beyond
Sits on a one way track, right from the start
And I, thought I was wrong
So can you listen to me, and see what I see?
Just sing along with me
See you on the other side
If you can feel the flame
Burning down, deep inside
Will you, look at youself, and see what went wrong?
Will life, stick to the past, or choose to move on?
The wave, crashing
Into, the shore
The crack, dividing
All of, your deals
And time, it went beyond
Sits on a one way track, right to the end
And I, thought you were wrong
So can you look right at me, and hear what I hear?
