I've been waiting for this pain to subside
All of this dark is taking me for a ride
It seems that all I have known
Is how to lay down and die
I've been hiding all these scars on my hands
Painful reminders of what I really am
There's been way too many nights
That I have lost my head
All these times have finally taken its toll
I can feel the whiskey burning my soul
I've seen it taken many lives
It's nearly taking my own
If I could take back the things that I've done
And be the perfect man that everyone wants
There would be nothing left to become
I wouldn't live all my life on the run
But Everybody's got their dues to pay
One step closer to our final day
And when I finally find the words I could say
I'd hush my mouth and take them to my grave
To my grave
I can hear the demons calling my name
Pushing me closer to the edge of insane
It seems that all I've learned
Is how to bury the pain
But I'll keep crawling back out of that hole
Try and keep ahold of my heavy soul
In all my days I've never seen
A heavier load
If I could take back the things that I've done
And be the perfect man that everyone wants
There would be nothing left to become
I wouldn't live all my life on the run
But Everybody's got their dues to pay
One step closer to our final day
And when I finally find the words I could say
I'd hush my mouth and take them to my grave
To my grave
If I could take back the things that I've done
And be the perfect man that everyone wants
There would be nothing left to become
I wouldn't live all my life on the run
But Everybody's got their dues to pay
One step closer to our final day
And when I finally find the words I could say
I'd hush my mouth and take them to my grave
To my grave
