Forever walking this path of self-loathing and living in the shadow of my outer mask,

Temptation hangs within the mist of this journey pulling me towards lonesomeness,

Forever walking this path of self-loathing and living in the shadow of my outer mask,

I stand and look back I see that time is not stopped it’s just moving quicker for the world.

As the hatred spills down my face it begins to burn the truth to my heart.

When the light fails the darkness begins and the victory will be theirs,

Evil will finish of the defeated and slay the very soul,

Nothing can save the heart unless the mind accepts the truth.

Evil will finish of the defeated and slay the very soul,

The temptation building and the pressure mounting,

I can only give in and follow call of darkness further.

Blinding my will and severing my senses it hides the goal of this escapade,

And in this confusion I can only attack others.

Carrying this burden along my travels,

Seems to make the road narrow and the end seem unreachable,

And finding ways to share this load

I'm hoping that it is only a mere faze, wishing it were a mere memory.

When the light fails the darkness begins and the victory will be theirs,

Evil will finish of the defeated and slay the very soul,

Nothing can save the heart unless the mind accepts the truth.

Evil will finish of the defeated and slay the very soul,

As the hatred spills down my face it begins to burn the truth to my heart.

Discovering the truth was only the beginning

And the unveiling of the soul brought the answer,

Deep down I've always blamed myself,

I always hated myself.
