From the recording Awakening
Lyrics
I am my own plague
Destroying the values I hold so dear
Breaking within myself, I need you to hear
Shame and guilt
They keep me from the light
Dishonor's hands have crippled me
We war in silence
Too ashamed of what we've done
I can't speak now
My eyes bleed now
As I gaze into this fear
I am held captive within
This mortal body of sin
And I feel there's no way out
Death is the only way out
Addicted and conflicted
This burden weighs too much
The hell that grips my hand tight
Has all but had enough
War alone and die by the knife
Every man left to fight for what's right
We war in silence
Too ashamed of what we've done
I can't speak now
My eyes bleed now
As I gaze into this fear
Cold war
Soul torn
Cold war
Soul torn
You suffer and thirst
While fighting this curse
Face first in the fire
Fall on the hands that will bring you through this trial
You
Are not abandoned
You
Are not despised
Keep your eyes fixed on me
Strength is now found through the hard times of life
Keep pressing on
You have what it takes
The past is the past
New life starts today
Eyes up
Head up
We must haste the day
