Dark Places

You rise like sun as I open my eyes
And burn me alive from the inside

You won't leave me alone not even by night
Look upon me and bug me under the moonlight

Sometimes smiles taste like fake
True ones fade when I awake
In this place where dreams come true
Only when they let you down
Sometimes smiles taste like fake
True ones fade when I awake
In this place where dreams come true
When they turn back on truth

When I open my eyes I hope you've gone
But you're there to kick in with the routine
You take away my motives to change
Tying me down to this ball and chain

Expecting the best, to then feel the worst
Punched in the face and set back to my place
Dark places of my mind prevail on the light
Waiting for a sun to end this fight

You're the cause of every problem I get
You're a vicious circle that never breaks
You've been my depression for over ten years
Hiding and planning on my death
Pointing the gun at my head
No trigger has been pulled yet
Cause I'm the safety lever and I'm still set
