Now I will Tell You...

by Deathwish   Oct 21, 2014


Now I will tell you what I've done for you,
50,000 tears I've cried, blurring and stirring the truth and the lies
So I don't know what's real and what's not
Always confusing the thoughts in my head
So I can't trust myself anymore
I know the truth now, I know who you are,
and I can't do this anymore,
Never was and never will be, you don't know how you betrayed me.
Without the mask where will you hide? Can't find myself lost in your lie
When you'd cry I'd wipe away all of your tears
When you'd scream I'd fight away all of your fears
I've held your hand through all of these years
You used to captivate me, by your resonating light
But now I'm bound by the life you left behind
These wounds won't seem to heal
This pain is just to real
There's just to much that time cannot erase.
I've tried to kill the pain, but only brought more,
and I'm pouring crimson regret and betrayal
My wounds cry for the Grave
My soul cries for deliverance
Tourniquet
Monsters calling my name,
let me stay where the wind will whisper to me
Where the raindrops as they're falling tell a story
In this nightmare I build my own place to escape
Swallowed up in the sand of my screaming
cannot cease for the fear of silent nights
Playground schoolbells ring again
Rain clouds come out to play,
has no one told you she's not breathing?
If I smile and don't believe I know I'll soon wake from this dream,
Don't try to fix me I'm not broken,
Suddenly I know I'm not sleeping
Hello? I'm still here all thats left of yesterday
No ones here and I fall into myself,
this truth drives me into madness
I know I can stop the pain if I will it all away
Never sleep, Never die
Fallen angels at my feet
Whispered voices at my ear
Death before my eyes
Lying next to me I fear
It bekends me, shall I give in?

Upon my end I shall begin
Forsaking all I've fallen for...I rise to meet the end....

    I like the use of various lyrics from Evanecense songs, it is well done and very creatively complied, however I think you should make a footnote or something and warn people that not all of these words are your own.
