As smoke becomes the slave
I can't bare the silence
Tell me God, what price will I pay?
What price will I pay?
Always leave my thoughts to betray
You were hiding in my agony
I held on to every word that you spoke
Give me sleep or give me disease
I can't seem to move past the space
Between you and me
Nothing left, lost and abandoned
Let this go, I'm begging you just to let me leave
Leave me here, washed up and silent
Breathe me out, I'm lost in the world of the dead
No, its not the way its supposed to be
I can't fall asleep, it won't set me free
But I can't breathe because everything that I love
Gets raped and then it's taken from me
So bury my soul in the ashes
And I'll lay them beside your grave
Then I can sink into a place
Where I can hear the shadows sing
Of what was and what couldn't be
Jaded, soulless, hopeless
It's not the way it's supposed to be
As smoke becomes the slave
I can't stand the silence
Tell me God, what price did I pay?
What price did I pay?
You'll never know what it meant to me
But time heals nothing
Spit me out
Where I don't belong
I'm driving nails through my eyes
For all the things I've done
For all the things I've done
