With every breath I take I'm forced to swallow pride with my mistakes And I toe the line between honesty and regret I'm forced to spend my time repressing what I wish I said With every breath I take I'm forced to swallow pride with my mistakes But here I stand, but here i stand So tell me what it takes to be a man Build a house in a bottle with your bare hands Destroy the fabric of your home The family divides and stands alone Now I can't stand Now I can't stand Stand living in the shadow of my makers hand With my hand to my heart Even thou we're apart With my hand to my heart I swear you'll never leave me I won't bow down to the men who've caused such injustice I'ill arise in the eyes of those who have loved us I will stay strong in the absence of danger And rejoice in the fact that my fathers a stranger A broken man in the mould of another Resented his kids cause they resembled their mother In trust we seek until the penance is paid Until the eyes the loved turn to eyes of dismay We are prisoners here we'll be till' we die Til' we rot in the earth and wail our goodbyes When I leave this place, I'll bear no regrets Just a map a with an x, that leads to my chest So tell me what it takes to be a man I've lost my way, a broken man In the eyes of dismay now I must stand So tell me what it takes to be a man I've lost my way, a broken man In the eyes of dismay now I must stand With every breath I take I'm forced to swallow pride with my mistakes I toe the line between honesty and regret We are prisoners here, will be till' we die Til' we rot in the earth, and wail our goodbyes In the world I see Its beauty doesn't comfort me Knowing that I am lost I lost my sense of self I swear you'll never leave me I swear you'll never leave With my hand to my heart Even though we are apart I swear you'll never leave me

This is where it all begins I feel the pressures sinking in How did I get here Where do I call home They made me do it They made me do it I feel the pressure I feel the pressure sinking in How did I get here and where do I belong I don't know where I'm going But Im not looking back Fearing the thought that a memory Will make its way into my restless head I just feel like I'm falling Away from everything I knew Falling far away from you What's left inside I find the truth I find what's left in you What's left inside, I find truth I'm a prisoner by my own hands And I I just want you to know I wish I could find the words And take back all the hurt And never let you go Take back every word Never let you go We'll be the voice of a new generation This is the sound of unending frustration But I will face myself now This is where it all begins I feel the pressures sinking in How did I get here Where do I call home We'll be the voice of a new generation This is the sound of unending frustration What's left inside I find truth I am a prisoner by my own hands Where do I call home

So trust me enough to let me create A space in your chest so I can hibernate This winter holds no hope for my soul So harbour my heart Till' there's life in the soil Is this what you call home It's a house without you You were my home Since you've been gone I feel alone My heart lives with you Coz I long to feel I long to feel Coz I long to feel You said you'd never die That even when your gone You'll live on in my heart But now that you've gone It's like you were never here at all And our hands formed a cup and the shedded tears are filled with love You said you didn't care for the other guys out there It's you who makes me beautiful for it's your heart that I've shared And I know that I've broken your heart But I've been broken so long It was till death do us part So now I live in the place where only fragments remain That space in your chest where your heart was laid When it was whole There wasn't room for both of us But now that it's gone I've never felt so alone So while I still occupy that vacant space Piece by piece ill turn this cave Back to our home where we lived in peace Where the roof always flooded and the couch always creakes Is this what you call home It's a house without you You were my home Since you've been gone I feel alone My heart lives with you

This is the only answer Only one of us will walk away We will raise the dead, we will raise the dead We will raise the dead, we will raise the dead I think I'm going under I think I'm done with all the hurt It's like a blinding curse That has its hold on me I'm scared they'll work this out So paranoid I cant make a sound So I will do all that I can To bring you down To stamp you out It's a bitter sweet tragedy It leaves a bad taste in my mouth It's a bitter sweet tragedy And I can't believe This is what's becoming of me I'm falling weak at the knees These eyelids shield me from what I can't stand to see We will raise the dead, we will raise the dead We will raise the dead, we will raise the dead We should have tore it down But we stamped you out Turn me back to lust For she's the only one I've loved Broken we stand together Hopeful we'll fight forever These words have cut so deep and left me struggling to breath Some people fear death so strongly they often forget to live We all need a lighthouse to see through the darkness We all need a reason to stay clean So I'll take down this mirror from my living room wall Coz without it I'm beautiful but within it I'm flawed And i'll trace back my mind to when I was sixteen And I wept for my shadow coz it got stuck with me The world I see Its beauty doesn't comfort me Knowing that I'm lost I lost my sense of self But there is hope for us yet As evolution races to its death I will embrace this life Until I draw my last breath

Show me truth I can't go on reading others palms Trying to get a grip on what this life means to me I swear you'll see I won't be a slave to these insecurities They won't determine me Delve inside your mind Realise it's not the only way to live Don't be a slave t`o the way they control your every waking thought And in my head I see through the mire But in my heart I have dreamt again We will never be alone We are all brothers of a broken home We'll never be alone, we'll never be alone Cast off the shackles, get a grip Realise it's not the only way to live Live your life for yourself And for your brothers Have the heart to live Can't you see that you have so much to give Fuck With every breath I take I'm moving in reverse I've built walls that will never break or worse will never fall I'm at a loss with my Inhibition It's taken everything I've got To turn these memories into moments I forgot I'd rather live a lie than risk living with an empty chest And making empty threats towards how unjust the world is We will never be alone We are all brothers of a broken home. We'll never be alone, we'll never be alone. Show me truth I can't go on reading others palms Trying to get a grip on what this life means to me I swear you'll see I won't be a slave to these insecurities They won't determine me With every step I take I've built walls that will never break It's taken everything I've got
