I stand on the edge of life
 Staring down
 Into a sea of despair
 Why did I even seem
 To really care?

 Reflecting on my life
 And what it once was
 Recalling the glory
 The peace, the joy, the love

[Chorus:]
 Was it all but a lie?
 A promise of better times...

 A gleam of hope
 For my soul?
 Or the loss of all control?
 All alone
 And left in thought
 A battle that was never fought
 In a world so unkind
 As I slowly lose my mind...

 A vision of me
 Left without a cause
 A sad display
 And must be wrong

 But continues to show
 My life's defeat
 Giving way
 To this fucking misery

 Sending me
 Into a fit of rage
 Bringing upon
 The end of days
 Killing me slow
 Until it takes my life
 Arteries cut with the blade
 Of my knife

[Repeat Chorus]

 The anger
 That it makes me feel
 Invokes a pain
 So surreal
 Now that I've lost it all
 Into emptiness I fall
