CARRY US AWAY

(album: GRAVESIDE CONFESSIONS - 2021)

Blackened skies have followed me all my life
But it ends tonight

Crawling through the void, there is no peace for me
Destructive by nature, there's no hope for me
I tried then I died, death is all that waits for me
All that waits for me

They warned me and I'll warn you
They'll get under your skin, they'll stick to you
And I'm only here now 'cause I made it through
I made it through

The words on this page
The blood on this stage
That's all we have
That's what we take to the grave
When the world starts to blur
I know they're not just words
They are more than their meaning
You and me we die in a dream
That's all we have
To carry us away, away

These are eyes that I can hide behind
It's easy to swallow all my lies
Truth is, these songs got a hold on me
Turned me into something I'm not supposed to be
I was found DOA in my last life
Repeat might be tonight

Blackened skies have followed me all my life
But it all ends tonight
My worst nightmares they live inside
These are ghosts that have haunted me all my life

This is a letter to all the people that I'll never meet
Farewell to everything that I was supposed to be

The words on this page
The blood on this stage
That's all we have
That's what we take to the grave
When the world starts to blur
I know they're not just words
They are more than their meaning
You and me we die in a dream
That's all we have
To carry us away, away

They warned me and I'll warn you
They'll get under your skin, they'll stick to you
And I'm only here now 'cause I made it through
I made it through

I'm not killing myself
I'm killing the voice that turned my head into hell
I'm not killing myself
I'm killing the voice that turned my head into hell
I'm not killing myself
I'm killing the voice that turned my head into hell

It's not that I want you to clean my thoughts from the walls
Sometimes it gets so dark I can't escape it all
I don't want you to hear about my death and wonder how
But I've tried thrice, I shouldn't be here now
Could that really happen
Could you all just vanish
Could that really happen
I'm afraid to ask it
