The old scars ripped open yet again
See me falter, see me fall, watch me from the distance
Watch me from the distance, sky growing darker
Gripping reality as I feel I am slipping away
Every painful moment I bleed to fulfill
The sky painted with the blood deeper still
Gray days and dark nights blending together
It seems this pain was made to last forever
Watch me from the cover, clouds getting darker
Opening wounds, letting my blood run wild
The sun rises again to greet the pain
To sear my flesh, to open my vein
I waste no time for the madman's hope
Every passing day feeling closer to the rope
The ancient scars ripped open yet again
I will falter but I won't fall, watch me from the shadows
Watch me from the shadows, sky growing brighter
Spilling the life that runs cold inside of me
The sun rises again to greet the pain
To sear my flesh, to open my vein
I waste no time for the madman's hope
Every passing day feeling closer to the rope
