Survivor Lyrics


In a dark place of terror, corruption and greed

I float in a mind that I don’t recognize

The blessings of innocence that I once held

Is smashed into fragments that I can’t mend

Stop - The vision’s so vivid

Can’t stop - This darkness within me

Please stop – I’m seeking answers when there are no answers to have

A forgotten time in a forgotten life

I strain to believe that it’s still part of me

A moment of weakness that I can’t fight

Is dragging me down into torture and shame

I’m failing again, a build-up of dread

A dark wave of helplessness clouding my head

It scares me to death, heart pumps in my chest

Desperate to put all my demons to rest

Stop - This vision’s too vivid

Can’t stop - The darkness becomes me

Please stop - I need some answers when there are no answers to have

Fade away

My mind fades away

Crushed by the weight of shame

Save me now

Take this pain away

Just give me one more day

I look to the sky and I ask – Why this happened to me

A gray place between black and white I can’t find

A neutral ground thin as the ice I stand on

The balance is tipping to darkness and death

Can’t hold any longer, I plunge right in

Stop - This vision’s so vivid

Can’t stop - This terrible sickness

Please stop - I cry for answers when the answer’s right in my hands

Fade away

My mind fades away

Crushed by the weight of shame

Save me now

Take this pain away

Just give me one more day

Fade away

My mind fades away

Crushed by the weight of shame

Save me now

Take this pain away

Just give me one more day

I look deep inside and I find – That it wasn’t my fault
