lyrics

i am the ghost of everything i ever dreamed that i would be/ an empty vessel sinking slowly/ screaming out will someone help me/ i'm left alone to struggle with hate and defeat/ a bitter way to pass the time i feel like i've been losing my mind/ no matter where i run i end up at the start/ always facing down these demons/ never had the strength to beat them/ so brick by brick i just keep adding to these walls/ lost all faith in someday being/ strong enough to begin climbing out/ so i just sit here broken waiting for the fall/ and i don't even think i care at all/ some will call this growing up i call it slavery/ an existence based on profit nothing more/ and now my heart had grown so cold that i no longer see/ any reason left to get up off the floor/ instead of me changing the world the world is changing me/ and i have never felt so helpless or afraid/ cause when i look into the mirror i see the enemy/ the reflection of a soul left to decal/ i feel the hate/ taking control inside my mind/ instead of apathy i feel detatched/ and i can't find/ those memories or better times/ they buried underneath the weight of my submission
