How many times
Have I walked away
Thinking that
I finally cured
This bleeding inside
How many times
Will I see
The same gray
When I sense the devil
By my side
How many days
Will go by
Before I’m done
With this
Subservient life
How many ways
Will I find
To wallow in my misery
And pay the price
No more hiding place
It’s time you show your face
Take me off
To a place
On the other side
Somewhere I can see
The darkness rise
Take me off
To a place
Where I can hide
From the demons
In disguise
How many lines
Can I hide behind
Thinking that
Nothing is sane
In this dying mind
How many crimes
Can I justify
Seeing all the pain
That comes
From the crazy times
I never intended
To take it slow
I just want to see
This eternal ride go
I want to know
What tomorrow might bring
Want to see right through
To the afterglow
No use tempting fate
It’s all been ripped away
Take me off
To a place
On the other side
Somewhere I can see
The darkness rise
Take me off
To a place
Where I can hide
From the demons
In disguise
