Promise me you'll stay away
Stay away from this torment
Through charity i'm seeking clarity
Please bring release
Please show me peace
I've had enough of these games
Every step that I take
I'm haunted by, the memories of my past mistakes
Stay away from me
It's now when I need I need you the most
I can't change my ways
Promise me you'll stay away
Let me live out this misery
Let me Rot, let me slip into sleep, don't wake me I'm in too deep
I find beauty in this darkness
Im hopeless, i've lost faith
I have no answers for the way I behave
Stay away from me
It's now when I need you the most
I can't change my ways
Every step I take
I don't want to hurt anymore
I can't change my ways
It's time to rewrite this chapter
I need to step up, step out
Pick myself up, break through the darkness
Every step, that I take, haunts me
Finding myself in the same position once again
Every night Lying in solace, choking on the breath I'm trying to catch
Praying each one will be my last, and I can finally achieve what I need but don't have the means to do
Held down by the weight of emptiness
Rendered helpless by the destructive nature of my own mind
At times the guilt of acknowledging the fact
That I might succumb to the last siren song of the black dog tears me apart
But I know in the end I'll finally be able to sleep
Stay away from me
It's now when I need you the most
I can't change my ways
Every step I take
I don't want to hurt anymore
I can't change my ways
Every step I take
I don't to hurt anymore
I can't change my ways
