No Me

There, I’m all alone again

And it seems as though it’s never been so bleak

With the prize still in my hands

I’m led away towards a fate I cannot flee

Broke a bargain on my end

To redefine, cut all the ties that incomplete me

Turn around, I know the wind's there

And I was blind for all the sights I could have seen

And the crown that I might get here

I won’t prevail against the walls that I can’t breach

Take the reins now in my stead

I’ll move away from all the eyes that cannot see me now

See me now

Hear the raging in my past

Hear the rising of my breath

Far away, as the veil is nearing death and I’ll grieve

But the fire is lit again, slowly burning me within

All the way, as the scene is nearly set, and I’ll see

Butterflies that are aching me inside

Through the veins, as they cut out all the mess

And they won’t rest till I bleed

Then I'm all alone again

And it seems as though it’s never been so sweet

Let me write it all by hand

And I’ll be the one I’m told I cannot be

All the roads that are ahead

Lead away from all the arms that cannot reach me now

Reach me now

See the fading of the past

The unwinding of the thread

It was all above me

Right above my head

Now it's pouring on me

It's dawning on me

That everything that's golden

Is buried deep and the ground's eroded

Now start digging there where all the lines meet

When the light has gone away

When the light has gone away

Not afraid, not afraid, not afraid of the dark

And the rise we're on will be

And the rise we're on will be

All the same, all the same, all the same as the fall

And the signs went up again

And the signs went up again

Don't be late, don't be late, don't be late to the door

Or the ride will never end

Or the fight will never end

Gone around and I wasted years to get it

Now throw away my only friend

Form a line and make you pay to get in

My God

Gone around, wasted years to get it

Now throw away my only friend

Form a line and make you pay to get in

My God

Am I too late?

I'm not my father, nor my cares

I'm not my body, there is no me

Get it now

I'm not my father, nor my cares

I'm not my body, there is no me

Get it now

Not my father, nor my cares

I'm not my body, there is no me

Get it now

Not my father, nor my cares

I'm not my body, there is no me

But you will know me, brother

Know me, brother

And the price went up again

And the price went up again

Buy the weight, buy the weight, buy the weight on your heart

And the body that we’re in

And the body that we’re in

Not awake, not awake, not awake but not dead

And the foes we’re up against

And the foes we’re up against

Are not there, are not there

Only there in our head

Are not there, are not there

Only there in our head

Are not there, are not there

Only there in our head

Are not there, are not there

Only there in our head

Are not there, are not there

Are not there, are not there
