Moment of Truth
Everything is falling apart around me
My mind is filled with lies
I start looking for the beauty
And try to keep teardrops from my eyes
The room starts spinning
I'm locked in chains
I look to start winning
I try to keep myself from going insane
I sense some sort of magic in the air
I sense a presence coming close
I try to run from this nightmare
I start to lose all my hopes
I fight for all I got
I tear open the cage
I break out and am now not caught
I start to fill with rage
The night casts a shadow
The sun starts to shine
I look through the window
And tell myself I am fine
I think I better start living
I better start to face the truth
Life isn't going to start giving
Until I carve out my own booth
Every day I'm running
I can't seem to find my way
I need to be more cunning
And make sure to listen to what I say
The future scares me
Sometimes I don't want to wake up
I'm stuck in the sea of vulnerability
Until I take a drink from that cup
I'm tired of being nothing
I'm tired of everything going wrong
I'm going to make myself into something
And show myself that I belong
My mind is filled with lies
I start looking for the beauty
And try to keep teardrops from my eyes
The room starts spinning
I'm locked in chains
I look to start winning
I try to keep myself from going insane
I sense some sort of magic in the air
I sense a presence coming close
I try to run from this nightmare
I start to lose all my hopes
I fight for all I got
I tear open the cage
I break out and am now not caught
I start to fill with rage
The night casts a shadow
The sun starts to shine
I look through the window
And tell myself I am fine
I think I better start living
I better start to face the truth
Life isn't going to start giving
Until I carve out my own booth
Every day I'm running
I can't seem to find my way
I need to be more cunning
And make sure to listen to what I say
The future scares me
Sometimes I don't want to wake up
I'm stuck in the sea of vulnerability
Until I take a drink from that cup
I'm tired of being nothing
I'm tired of everything going wrong
I'm going to make myself into something
And show myself that I belong
