[Intro: Cold atmospheric synthesizer pads, pulsating bass, powerful rock beat.]
You carved out the scars that now burn in my heart,
With merciless words, you branded my soul.
I took all the pain, thankful right from the start,
A willing-ly, captive catch, losing control.
[Vеrsе 1]
You ground bitter salt in the wounds, raw and deep,
To wring out the very last tears I could cry.
And this vicious role that you chose to keep
Tore down every dream of the days gone by.
Our hopes have collapsed into ashes and dust,
Leaving just scars on my skin, scorched and grey.
And in this new world, you don't feel, you don't trust
That I've become you in every single way.
[Сhоrus]
You built up a wall of the bluest of ice,
So breathless, I'd search for a crack in the stone.
You crushed all I'd built at a terrible price,
Erasing the pain, all the seeds I had sown.
My memory holds all that darkness and dread,
Where every step forward was just a mistake.
My only sin was the war in my head,
But you turned our love into torture and ache.
[Vеrsе 2]
Through all of the fire, the agony's haze,
Where feelings were burning with no end in sight,
I realized you are me in these maze-like days,
It's from you I'm choking, while holding you tight.
My personal hangman, my lesson to learn,
No matter who sent you or from where you came.
A sin or a gift—it's my turn to burn,
I would have been lost without feeling this flame.
But with it, I'm dying among the debris,
These beautiful ruins are all that I see.
[Сhоrus]
You built up a wall of the bluest of ice,
So breathless, I'd search for a crack in the stone.
You crushed all I'd built at a terrible price,
Erasing the pain, all the seeds I had sown.
My memory holds all that darkness and dread,
Where every step forward was just a mistake.
My only sin was the war in my head,
But you turned our love into torture and ache.
[Bridge: ad-libs.]
You are my verdict, my sweetest of pains,
I signed my own freedom away from the start.
It's useless to fight now when nothing remains.
You are me. We're one and the same, torn apart.
My broken reflection in shattered glass scenes,
You're all I have tortured by being my own foe.
But I would have died without trying the means...
I drank down your poison, and now I just know,
Erasing reality, sunset and dawn.
[Instrumental Break: Powerful soaring guitar and synth solo - a passionate, catchy, sad melody.]
[Final Chorus: Full Power!!! Ad-libs from all gang.]
You built up a wall of the bluest of ice,
So breathless, I'd search for a crack in the stone!
You crushed all I'd built at a terrible price,
Erasing the pain, all the seeds I had sown!
My memory holds all that darkness and dread,
Where every step forward was just a mistake!
My only sin was the war in my head,
But you turned our love into torture and ache!
My hangman, my savior, who came from the dark,
You guided my lost soul to stand on the edge,
You burned out the blindness and left a new mark!
And on this scarred heart, I am making a pledge!
So let all these wounds be both rugged and deep,
Let my heart be a stone that no longer can feel!
I've taken your gift and a promise to keep,
One shard of a dream that still echoes so real...
That quiet "enough" whispered soft in my mind,
And these are the walls that your own rules designed!..
[Оutrо: ad-libs.]
I'm saying goodbye to you forever!..
Forever!..
Goodbye...
[The final guitar chords, then complete silence.]
