lyrics

My mind is set and my fist is clenched
I’ve got no option but to bury the pain
The show must go on, the show WILL go on
Fuck everybody!
For far too long I’ve been dragged in the mud
Time to refocus and set things straight
The show must go on, come on
Fuck everybody!

In the beginning everything went so fine
I was convinced the sun will always shine
I never felt so strong, so powerful
For so, I let my guard down
I let it fucking down
Opening myself like I’ve never done before
I could feel the trust, I could feel that bond
To blind to realize
I dug my own grave
And kept digging & digging & digging some more

Now I’m left with my broken dreams
Dreams of a happier life
Dreams of brighter future
I’m facing the harsh reality
I’m not myself anymore
Just an empty and dark shell

Fuck, it hurts like hell
I’m becoming what I despise
A pathetic human being with no self respect
A fool trying to catch the moon with his bare hands
Putting aside what makes my life complete

I’ve got to open my eyes & do what best for me
Suffering is leading my decision
I’ve go to keep my sanity
Luckily, the true ones are pulling me out of my misery
My journey through Hell has only just begun
For sure, this path is the worst I ever have to walk on
I have to remember who I used to be
I know this person is somewhere
I’ll keep searching
Again & again

This is my wake up call!

Wake up call
Time to rebuild my shield
Wake up call
And forge it with pride
