Child

A bullet to the head is all it took to kill the child in me
A gunshot ringing out awakened me from all my dreams

A hedonistic fall from grace, indulging my sadistic traits
Have I learned nothing from all of my mistakes
Faces around me fade away, is this all a fucking game to me
Finding the mystic puzzle piece to fill the hole, in my brain

Sick and twisted life, why have you forsaken me
Taken the things I wished weren't real
And made them too clear to unsee
Masochistic lies, I tell myself
Are the only things that keep me from this reality I've tried to hide

Stripping paper off the walls that I had always called my home
Revealing concrete barriers in which I've been unknowingly enclosed

Waiting for my life to live itself
Go on without me
'Cause I can't bear to just follow you like this anymore
Tell me, where do we stand, if not alone
Struggling through this world that's too colossal for us to hold

For too long now my head has been hollow
A chamber in which I've been contained
So tell me where do we stand
Is this all just a game

Sick and twisted life, why have you forsaken me
The things I wished weren't real
Have become too clear to unsee
Masochistic lies, I tell myself
Are the only things that keep me from this reality I've tried to hide

I've tried to hide
