Somehow I’m forgotten, some hundred miles away
Closer to the devil, the demons in my way
Fighting hard to leave it, for my shallow grave
Is ever moving forward, my own sweet addiction I crave
God has left me, as an island slave
Pushing through the darkness, weighted by the pain
Crawling to the master, of a forgotten age
So close to winning, still some miles away
Please forgive me, weak is in my veins
It’s what I’ve grown accustomed to, when I feel this way
I can feel them coming, closer every day
Full of hate and suffering, a mirror to my name
I feel the pressure building, thin sin begins to move
Like the hands around my throat, slowly taking hold
Prayers have failed me this time, there’s nothing left to prove
The last breaths escape me, as I release my soul

What is this emptiness I feel?
cast into the day
No one around to lead me home
in times I've gone astray
no one could ever know
the hurt and the pain
each day that passes on
just adds to the strain
every eye begins to look
at the broken life I lead
every person slowly fades
into the emptiness I see
Every try I make, to escape this hole
I seem to slip, for these holes just feel like home
I can't reach out, so instead I'll face the cold
And I will fall again, because I'm empty in my soul
I feel a hunger inside me
a thirst for social grace
to just be accepted once
to have a real face
I could only wish for things
I know will never change
So I hide inside myself
heading to my grave
every eye begins to look
at the broken life I lead
every person slowly fades
into the emptiness I see
And every eye begins to look, too late to change the plan
every time I try to breath, I feel the hold again
And any chance I had, to make myself, better then I am
has fallen off its course, with no one left to take my hand
Every try I make, to escape this hole
I seem to slip, for these holes just feel like home
I can't reach out, so instead I'll face the cold
And I will fall again, because I'm empty in my soul
