all hope is hopeless

maybe i'm dead too much for the fact i live,

and i'm paid too much for the less i give

all hope is hopeless, i can't give like a machine,

fed hate like a drug just to stay alive

in this hopeless world in which we hide



like a rifle, my life was automatic

everyday waiting for it to go off

i had the death perception, perceived the things

you'd never even recognize, world was in these eyes

but the world was starting to burn, sometimes they never learn



but our world, this world, was a killing machine

giving all your hate to the ones who won't fit in

should this be the way? since time came in, we've given in.

our one and only sin, but i refused to breathe in

maybe i don't want to fit in



but i'm not looking back, i need to forget

i don't want to remember anything

i don't need to be awake to be alive

still maybe that light may someday get brighter

there may still be a way



sometimes i wish there wasn't a face for this name

and when you go i'll take all the blame

it doesn't have to be like this, i never wanted this

i can't show this face, you shouldn't know this name

i've tarnished all and everything, i cannot ever be seen now



this secret skin closes me in

i'm shedding this life for a drifting in
