"Echoes" lyrics

"Echoes"

I was wrong and I'm ashamed
A twisting of fate had scuttled in
And poisoned me
The life I chose, it cost me dear
I'm imprisoned by the truth
Confronting seems the only way to lose

Well I can't believe it no matter what I want
There's ways to carry on

Will you draw your fatal lines
Up to the sky and cut through the clouds?
And you call this a celebration
As the lies flow from your mouth

I had a choice to treat the pain
I removed every trace of all that remained
Time helps you stand alone
I narrate my script
Then hide it in this grave
I interfere with external sound
From the jealous and the fools
And it seems to me the only way to lose

Will you draw your fatal lines
Up to the sky and cut through the clouds?
And you call this a celebration
As the lies flow from your mouth
With the nails removed
I'm still alive with infected wounds
I'm still in love but it feels too soon

When the daylight is dead and gone
The echo of a voice will come
It's a dangerous world
Suffocates and burns

I would lie with you here, my friend
I would stay with you to the end
The end
Don't be afraid to lose control
Don't be afraid to bear your soul

But I won't survive
Won't survive
But you've got to try
You've got to try

We were born to die
It's a dangerous world
Suffocate and burn

Two voices lost inside the ricochet
And what's deceiving one another
Because you know it's a lie
