your love is all that can redeem me

2. Desolate

as i come into this place once again
i couldn't help but think and remember when
times were easy, didn't have a care in the world
now i'm stuck and i'm lookin' for the open door

is there a way out 'cause i feel so trapped and confused
my mind is spinning, can't separate the lies from the truth
i feel alone, wretched, broken, i'm tired and weak
where should i look... 'cause i can't see

and in this place where things are never easy
where everyone around will leave me
when things aren't going the way they think they should

i wander through this desert place
just to try to find the way (i'm desolate)
but in this search for something more
all i find is another day (i'm desolate)
i'm crawling in the dark
i can't see anything at all (i'm desolate)
i'm standing on the edge and screaming
who's gonna hear my call (i'm the desolate one)

thinking 'bout the choices i made before
and how i felt so lost and insecure
giving in to the pressures, disappointment and fears
the whispered voices were all that i could hear

looking back i now see how i was so blind
chased the mirage then getting there only to find
that i am back in the same place that i began
looking for a helping hand

and in this place where things are never easy
where everyone around will leave me
when things aren't going the way they think they should

i wander through this desert place
just to try to find a way (i'm desolate)
and in my search for something more
all i find is another day (i'm desolate)
i'm crawling in the dark
i can't see anything at all (i'm desolate)
i'm standing on the edge and screaming
who's gonna hear my call (i'm the desolate one)

i can't take this anymore (get me outa here)
i can't take it anymore (get me outa here)
i can't take this anymore (get me outa here)
i can't take it anymore (get me outa here)

i wander through this desert place
just to try to find a way (i'm desolate)
and in my search for something more
all i find is another day (i'm desolate)
i'm crawling in the dark
i can't see anything at all (i'm desolate)
i'm standing on the edge and screaming
who's gonna hear my call (i'm the desolate one)

3. Neck Deep

walking through the darkness
then you say you wonder why
just open up your eyes
just look up to the skies

you say that your so innocent
you say you're not to blame
who buried you in shame
who brought you all this pain

how much longer can you do it
before you loose your soul
before you loose control
don't be such a fool

are you ever gonna let go
are you ever gonna give it up
all the things that have taken hold
when will you say that you've had enough

neck deep
you buried yourself alive
created your own demise
you're so neck deep
are you feeling the crushing pain
as you drown in the pouring rain
you're so neck deep

lookin' in the mirror
now tell me what you see
is it who you claim to be
or is it still blurry

it's time to face the music now
and realize who you are
you're drifting way too far
stop making things so hard

i'll never understand
the choices that you've made
what's it gonna take
so your life doesn't break

are you ever gonna let go
are you ever gonna give it up
all the things that have taken hold
when will you say that you've had enough

neck deep
you buried yourself alive
created your own demise
you're so neck deep
are you feeling the crushing pain
as you drown in the pouring rain
you're so neck deep

are you ever gonna let go
are you ever gonna give it up
all the things that have taken hold
when will you say that you've had enough
are you ever gonna let go
are you ever gonna give it up
all the things that have taken hold
when will you say that you've had enough

neck deep
you buried yourself alive
created your own demise
you're so neck deep
are you feeling the crushing pain
as you drown in the pouring rain
you're so neck deep

4. Decay Of Society

looking at the front page of the paper
catch the evening news
the world's in rambles, we keep on going
like we've got nothing to loose

to each his own, every man for himself
is the mindset that we choose
when the going gets tough we turn our backs
like we've got nothing to loose

who's to blame for this travesty, it's a shame we've lost our dignity

the decay of society is what's haunting me (it's time to wake up, open your eyes) (2x)

stop pointing your fingers at everyone else
and look into the mirror
responsibility is staring you down
so what you got to fear

no more holding back to protect yourself
and all that you hold that's dear
it's all crashing in, you're backed against the wall
the end is very near

who's to blame for this travesty, it's a shame we've lost our dignity (2x)

the decay of society is what's haunting me (it's time to wake up, open your eyes) (4x)
