Don't ever hold me To expectations of the past, you see, Or explanation of my past beliefs Even if you'll never take it Forget the last time To explain what's gone through my mind I know I'll have to trust I'll put it past for us even if I have to fake it You know you're never gonna see me fall I won't lose it all for you I'll never get another chance to lose And though I know it might be hard to see It's truly killing me To be something I might not be cut out to be But it's something that I'll have to prove So trust in me, don't walk away Cause we are better off this way I see the fear in your eyes Our past won't die So you can think you throw it all behind To leave a mark on everything Like scars left carved in the skin This is my revival I'll never give you the chance To make me think I'll fear the rest I've seen a brand new side of me glance back from the mirror And now I know the chance might not get any clearer Or hear a new voice warning me the path to stay clear of I'm near the edge The dim lit dawn of our new era And when I ask myself why Do I even try? I realize my dreams are still clearly in sight And I won't be the reason why that this will die I'll still be here The last one standing every time Now you all hear me This isn't over you'll see I'm just a lost soul, clouded mind when I lose control I'll never be the leader they expect me to be Will I be free to choose for me, how I come to be? This is my one chance, no second glance It'll be too far for me to ever see There's no looking back Feels like a full blown attack Shot down hopes You think you knew all from day one Acting like we'll all go the same way Cause they say you know you're never gonna make it You know you're never gonna see me fall I won't lose it all for you I'll never get another chance to lose And though I know it might be hard to see It's truly killing me To be something I might not be cut out to be But it's something that I'll have to prove So trust in me, don't walk away Cause we are better off this way I see the fear in your eyes Our past won't die So you can think you throw it all behind To leave a mark on everything Like scars left carved in the skin This is my revival I'll never give you the chance To make me think I'll fear the rest I've felt it for the hundredth time No reason why I'd lose my mind over countless lies For I am no longer caught up in the web's we've weaved Retracing our steps to find the unseen Emergence, I come to be You have everything that is left of me
