Lyrics

Relapse
Tear the stitch from my open wound
Time would heal but I never wanted to
Roots run deep, poison rushes through
Left its hooks in me
Severed my sense of truth
Severed my sense of truth
I take one step forward then two steps back
'Til I run out of time in the hourglass
When heaven is full
And hell don't want me back
Watch it fade to black
As I relapse
You might call me insane
Withdrawing from the pain
Tell myself I can change
Swear I'm not an addict
Just another bad habit
Just another bad
Just another bad habit
Just another bad habit
I take one step forward
Then two steps back
'Til I run out of time in the hourglass
When heaven is full
And hell don't want me back
Watch it fade to black
As I relapse
I take one step forward
Then two steps back
'Til I run out of time in the hourglass
When heaven is full
And hell don't want me back
Watch it fade to black
As I relapse
I should stop but I ain't one to quit
So you can save yourself
Or free fall in this bottomless pit
Save yourself
