[Intro]
I am the ghost in the shadows, I am the fear of the dark
I am the murderer of apathy, an angel that's fallen
I am the psycho, the sinner, I am what you can't escape
I am the splinter underneath your skin, I am a monster!
[Verse 1]
With a bang, I feel my heart start to separate
The enemy within can no longer be contained
I'm running from myself
There's something inside of me and it's ripping a hole through my chest
I spit the fire from my lungs
The creature I buried is now the beast that I've become
We pretend that we can be someone else
But heaven's judgments nothing when you're already in hell
[Chorus]
So take these broken wings, they'll just slow me down
(I'll never be the same, I'll never be the same)
And take my fragile heart, they'll just tear it out
(This is the end of broken me, they call me to the lights)
I am the ghost in the shadows, I am the fear of the dark
I am the murderer of apathy, the angel that's fallen
I am the psycho the sinner, I am what you can't escape
I am the splinter underneath your skin, I am a monster!
[Bridge]
I feel so god damn tired and I can't escape the things I've lost
The cycle repeats and repeats and I can't turn the f**ing power off
I hate the things that I'm not and I'm sick of how this has to end
I tried to reason with you, but now all of you are f**ing dead!
I am a living dead!
I am a living dead!
I walk through hell alone and none of you can save me now
[Chorus 2]
So take these broken wings, they'll just slow me down
(I'll never be the same, I'll never be the same)
And take my fragile heart, they'll just tear it out
(This is the end of broken me)
They call me to the lights
Their voices just like thunder
They call me to the lights
But I'm already gone, what have I done?
I am the ghost in the shadows, I am the fear of the dark
I am the murderer of apathy, an angel that's fallen
I am the psycho the sinner, I am what you can't escape
I am the splinter underneath your skin, I am a monster!
