Shadowed by what seems to be the end
Where my hopes will only pretend
To silence the voices I hear calling me
And forcing me to face the truth to be
I refuse to accept my fate
And not believe there's no escape
Desperate to survive
Will time stand still for me?
Desperate—desperate to survive
I'm alone and a captive of my past
In solitude my penance is cast
For vicious memories taunt my peace of mind
I feel helpless and despair, a victim of time
I just have to stay alive
There's nowhere to run, nowhere to hide
Desperate to survive
Will time stand still for me
Desperate to survive
Desperate to survive
Too late, it's too late for us
It's too late, it's too late for us
Torment, I can't take the thought I have to stay
For inside my terror lives all the sins I must repay
So tragic, I can't take this pain
Lost in my sorrow, so endless
It's so hard to maintain
Desperate—desperate to survive
Desperate to survive
Desperate—desperate to survive
Desperate to survive
