The door swings wide open into my world A story best forgotten but today it is told I count the hours missing from night and day A broken reel of the devil's play A bitter truth, I waste away What is left of me to see Broken lies the beggar But he is far from poor, for he is rich With skin and wasted breath But still he hunts for more What have you left to give? I made this bed of snakes To lay my head in shame Rot in the stench of the same old mistakes Only one to blame I'm losing days to this as I bask in blissful ignorance Never thought to think again Now I have, I see the end The bitter truth, wasted away Nothing left of me to see Broken lies the beggar For he has spent his wealth on a creature bound in leather This is the price you pay for the weak that you prey on There is nothing left to give I made this bed of snakes To lay my head in shame Rot in the stench of the same old mistakes Only one to blame Forgive me I've spent years as a creature that crawls on it's knees I've sown my seed to satisfy my needs Tonight is a chance to end my suffering So take my hand and march me to the end The end of a nightmare The end of a dream The end of a life that seemed so serene In the face of a man that never suffered a fall I am the one that bears the burden for us all I am the one that bears the burden for us all I'll bear the burden but the price I pay is murder
