This Cold Life - My Collapse lyrics

[Verse] I have seen the broken world Never knew its shame I have been the guest of spite But never knew its game What can I call this place So lost and void of grace The shadows breathe The darkness sees The other side That will never go away [Chorus] I woke up and saw today Was darker than before Walls were shattered Foundations battered I'm left for dead What I feel Is my collapse My own breath my enemy The future falters The dream state alters I'm left for dead [Verse] I have studied all my scars Now I know their place I have mourned and felt lament Enough to learn their taste What if I felt regret Could I then show my face The hollow fate The haunted day The other side [Bridge] Now I know my darkened days Cast a shadow peripheral demise Stand beside me The inevitable speaks true My words I swallow This is my collapse [Verse] I have lived forbidden lust And now ignore the shame I have been the mastermind But now repent the blame What if I turned away Refuse to make a change The fallen dreams The fallacy The other side [Chorus] I woke up and saw today Was darker than before Walls were shattered Foundations battered I'm left for dead What I feel Is my collapse My own breath my enemy The future falters The dream state alters I'm left for dead I'm left for dead (2x)
