Mortal

Sometimes I hate that I am mortal
My time just flies and falls away
In little circles it reminds us nothing lingers, no one stays
I won't let that be my fate

It's always under the surface
This growing hunger in my veins
I want my life to be worth it
And I'll do anything it takes

You should know
If you get too close
I'll only let you down

Pain
Running me into the forest
Burning and I can't ignore it
It owns me now
Shame
But it never breaks the surface
Even if I don't deserve it
There's no way out

Happiness is overrated
Greatness is the only goal
If that's the price, I'll take it
I've already sold my soul

You should know
If you get too close
I'll only let you down

Pain
Running me into the forest
Burning and I can't ignore it
It owns me now
Shame
But it never breaks the surface
Even if I don't deserve it
There's no way out

I'll let you down

Pain
Running me into the forest
Burning and I can't ignore it
It owns me now
