Insomnium - Collapsing Words lyrics

[Music & lyrics: Friman] Behold; never trust anyone Every shadow shields a traitor Always keep your friends near you And your enemies even closer Behold; never trust anyone Betrayal lurks in every corner Always keep your back against the wall Your mind collected and focused The crash of collapsing worlds The crackle of burning paper Always speak less than you know Walk one step ahead of others Their words cut like knives Their words sharp as razor But never surrender to fear Never let them take your freedom And remember, you'll always be alone Since the day you choose your own path So make sure to prepare yourself For everything live might throw at you Because you know your only chances are To win this war by each battle Merit the difference; never bow anyone You are your own saviour Live as if you were to die tomorrow Learn as if you were to live forever Stay awake while the world is sleeping Free yourself before you disappear
