Still Rings True I Am The Ghost lyrics

I am the ghost of everything I ever dreamed that i would be
An empty vessel sinking slowly
Screaming out will someone help me
I'm left alone to struggle with hate and defeat
A bitter way to pass the time I feel like I've been losing my mind
No matter where I run I end up at the start
Always facing down these demons
Never had the strength to beat them
So brick by brick I just keep adding to these walls
Lost all faith in someday being
Strong enough to begin climbing out
So I just sit here broken waiting for the fall
And I don't even think I care at all
Some will call this growing up I call it slavery
An existence based on profit nothing more

And now my heart had grown so cold that I no longer see
Any reason left to get up off the floor
Instead of me changing the world the world is changing me
And I have never felt so helpless or afraid
Cause when I look into the mirror I see the enemy
The reflection of a soul left to decal
I feel the hate
Taking control inside my mind
Instead of apathy I feel detached
And I can't find
Those memories or better times
They buried underneath the weight of my submission
