lyrics

The monsters over my shoulder
Whispering sour nothings
It disappears to the shadows
Warns me of the storm that is coming
Try as I might despite my fright
What I know to be wrong feels so right

Hold you have over my soul has taken over control
I just went to get back
To be or not to be from your spell over me
With some pieces intact
Try to say goodbye before one of us dies
Ain’t going out like that
Must make these chains collapse and break
Forsake my fate of relapse

The monsters taken full control
I see him in my reflection
We know actions have consequences
But agreed they would never be mentioned
Just pretend we are friends to the bitter end
Or the worst whichever comes first
As we toil in the mortal coil
I envy part of me that used to be free

The hold you have over my soul has taken over control
I just went to get back
To be or not to be from your spell over me
With some pieces intact
Must try to say goodbye before one of us dies
Ain’t going out like that
I must make these chains collapse and break
Forsake my fate of relapse
