The candlelight has finally faded away No escape for me - it's time - it's time to pay My past has come merciless to dictate my future To collect my debts How chaotic is my punishment How hypnotic to feel again All the suffering of everything that walks this earth House of torment and myself Different names, but mean the same My mind is a battlefield My misery is a mystery It only expands inside of me Among the living, i'm walking dead With this living hell inside my head How many lives that won't be saved I'm a slave to eternal anguish How many more tears will shed again I've fed this death wish Feels like thousands of needles have been placed Deep within my heart - and now It's needless to say, every beat rips it further apart Agonizing in slow pace - realizing i must face That my hope has wilted While my distress has bloomed in this garden of doom My hope, you have killed it House of torment and myself Different names, but mean the same My mind is a battlefield Another hell to live through Another link in the chain Born again - pay again This nightmare has no end The sun ascends now, but the stars still aglow
