These feelings of emptiness inside
Chisel away at my self esteem
They take away,
Take away until all is gone again
And I'm torn between two sides
The side I love
The side I hate
I try to fight, I try to fight
It seems that darkness always wins
Rise hope
For the ransom
Rise hope
At the top of the hourglass of life
I didn't quite fall like everyone else
But still they bash me in,
Bash me in until all is gone again
And forces outside and forces within
Break me down when I am weak
I cannot stand, I cannot stand
With the weight put on my feet
I'm crushed by when you say it and lie it to my face
