Chapter 8 - Falling Again
Chapter 8 - Falling Again
Once you fall through the bottom,
You know it can only get that much worse,
Struggling to climb back up the way you came,
You have to escape this forgotten curse.
There's no way to tell you if you will win,
Or if you'll lose it all again and tumble farther.
Misery is not the only thing waiting for those fallen.
Run as hard as you will, you cannot get away from it.
Haunted by half-forgotten memories
Lost within the darkness inside yourself
Hedging everything you feel away
Put up a mask to fool the world around
Lie to yourself, lie to them, lie to me...
How can you keep going after all of this,
All of the things that killed you inside
Yet you still keep moving...
Frozen emotions trying to thaw,
Ready and willing to rend every scar raw
Choke down your panic, and kill your pain.
Gasp in air and clench your arms to yourself
Hold together just a little bit longer,
Keep those fractured and cracked shards together
Raise your empty eyes to look at the stars.
Whisper a strangled prayer
"Please, please..Don't break me again.."
The words escape your lips before you can think
Knowing that such a hopeless prayer won't ring true
Everything is made in this world to be broken
Nothing that survives is ever real
Can you hold up your end of the deal
Haunted by half-forgotten memories
Lost within the darkness inside yourself
Hedging everything you feel away
Put up a mask to fool the world around
Lie to yourself, lie to them, lie to me...
How can you keep going after all of this,
All of the things that killed you inside
Yet you still keep moving...
Oooh, oooh, oooh~
Ah, hah, ah!
You've lost a piece of yourself again
Now how many little holes are on you,
Can you keep it together,
Now that you've lost again?
Haunted by half-forgotten memories
Lost within the darkness inside yourself
Hedging everything you feel away
Put up a mask to fool the world around
Lie to yourself, lie to them, lie to me...
How can you keep going after all of this,
All of the things that killed you inside
Yet you still keep moving...
Ooooh~ oooh~ ooh~
You know it can only get that much worse,
Struggling to climb back up the way you came,
You have to escape this forgotten curse.
There's no way to tell you if you will win,
Or if you'll lose it all again and tumble farther.
Misery is not the only thing waiting for those fallen.
Run as hard as you will, you cannot get away from it.
Haunted by half-forgotten memories
Lost within the darkness inside yourself
Hedging everything you feel away
Put up a mask to fool the world around
Lie to yourself, lie to them, lie to me...

Yet you still keep moving...
Frozen emotions trying to thaw,
Ready and willing to rend every scar raw

Yet you still keep moving...
Ooooh~ oooh~ ooh~
