I burn these dead memories
I look upon myself
All I see is this disease
And nobody around to help
Can't you see this sickness?
The death that does come near
I cannot be the one to miss
Because I'm full of fear
Drown it all...inside myself
I can't stop these dreams inside my mind
Just watch...as I fall, falling away
Just a few more pieces to the puzzle I won't find
I watch, and bleed
Another moment inside of me
That I feel, this seed
A hatred inside that only I see
Can't you see this sickness?
The death that does come near
I cannot be the one to miss
Because this isn't something dear
Drown it all...inside myself
I can't watch these dreams inside my mind
Just watch...as I fall, falling away
Just a few more pieces of the life I won't find
These painful memories
Feeding off my conscience
Like drowning in this damn disease
All this pain at my expense
I can always feel this sickness
A death that's drawing near
And I'll be the one to miss
Because I fall in fear
