lyrics

Legs breaking cannot hold the masses
Another straw on the camel’s back
A tortured soul waiting for release
Who said the end justifies the means

Lying helpless
The vultures are waiting to peal the skin from bone
Come for the debts you owe Left for dead
We’re damned by choice
The demons I hear speak a familiar voice

My days are numbered
This is where devils lie
My heart turns cold
And says one final goodbye
A broken legacy
That I leave behind
My heart turns cold
And says one final goodbye

Release the ties that bind me
Bring me back to my reality
Release the ties that bind me
Set me free, bring me clarity

A clenched hand caresses the trigger
A violent image staring back in the mirror
Living life on the edge of knife
Brace myself to stand and deliver

This is my condition
This is my illusion
This is my condition
This is my conclusion

Losing focus
Of the life I’ve left behind
Chasing shadows
Why am I so blind
Wake me From this lasting nightmare
Or pull the plug
and end this despair

My days are numbered
This is where devils lie
My heart turns cold
And says one final goodbye
A broken legacy
That I leave behind
My heart turns cold
And says one final goodbye

I peel the skin to look inside
To free this pain I’ve felt all my life
Embrace the light within the darkness
I’ll find the answers within the abyss

My days are numbered
This is where devils lie
My heart turns cold
And says one final goodbye
A broken legacy
That I leave behind
My heart turns cold
And says one final goodbye

Release the ties that bind me
Bring me back to my reality
Release the ties that bind me
Set me free, bring me clarity
