All That I Bleed

I Stand Alone

All That I Bleed


One more time it burns at night 
As the tears fall 
I can't remember the last time I cried 
I can't explain how much I hate or love myself 
But do I lie if I say I feel the same way about you? 
This lullaby is only in my head 
The real world is the one you represent 
Why can't I see you in the mirror 
Father, mother I stand alone 
And I can't face the world 
As I choke on reality's sick and twisted game 
I see my life and I just can't stand it 
As I bear you and the one's you've handled 
Where did she go 
As you held me in your arms 
Once again I lay here at night 
As a wayward son consumed by things gone wrong 
God I can't explain how much I miss her 
As I kneel in tears asking her to come back 
This guilt is a part of me alone 
This emptiness the one I represent 
Why can't I see me in the mirror? 
Father, mother I stand alone 
And I can't face the world 
As I choke on reality's sick and twisted game 
I see my life and I just can't stand it 
As I bear you and the one's you've handled 
Where did she go 
As you held me in your arms
