Lyrics
I carry my darkness
like a briefcase
into my life
paperweights ever linger
on my page that never turns
normal
that's what they all say
expected
like that's what it takes
when the smoldering pyre
is waiting to be relit
beckoning like a beacon
in the dark
that is my placid mind
a place without hope
copeless inside
yearning to remove my book's
frail bindings
scattering in the air
laid bare to the whims of the winds
of my existence
dependent
myself or my crutch
who wins this
tug-of-war
of my
repentance?
my sins lived on
a castle built
in the craters on my arms
a mote made atop my liver
a bridge built across my mind
the chains wrapped around my heart
the throne upon my soul
now empty
its ghosts consuming my thoughts
who wants this??
productive for what purpose?
I want this.
to not worry anyone
I want this
to suceed
I want this
to be me
[Verse 2]
I'm haunted by the darkness,
the shadows I've created
In the castle of my sins
my secrets have been gated
The walls echo regret
nightmares I can't escape
But I'll challenge my demons
rewrite my own fate
[Chorus]
In the castle of my sins,
where the ghosts reside
I'll break free from these chains,
no longer will I hide
I'll rise above the shadows,
let my spirit take flight
No more haunted by the past,
I'll conquer the darkest night
[Verse]
I gotta take it
Take it (Take it all)
Forsaken (Forsaken)
Let them fall
[Verse 2]
I'm on a
Mission to the sky (to the sky)
No matter how Hard I gotta try
No more hesitation (hesitation)
Gotta break the chains
Leaving all my troubles
in the rain
[Chorus]
Take it (Take it)
Take it all away
Forsaken (Forsaken)
I'm gonna find my way
Leaving all my demons (demons)
in between
me and sobriety
me and sobriety
[verse]
t-t-t-take it (just take me)
forsaken (forsake me)
I'll conquer all my demons
I'll leave them in the past (the past)
[verse]
t-t-t-take it (just take me)
forsaken (forsake me)
I'll conquer all my demons
I'll leave them in the past (the past)
practiced
collective suffering
yearning for emptiness
craving sweet nothings
dulled inference
doled into this
feeling of calmness
serenity
darkness revoked
learning to love myself again
[verse]
t-t-t-take it (just take me)
forsaken (forsake me)
I'll conquer all my demons
I'll leave them in the past (the past)
practiced
collective suffering
yearning for emptiness
craving sweet nothings
dulled inference
doled into this
feeling of calmness
serenity
darkness revoked
learning to love myself again
[outro]
[verse]
t-t-t-take it (just take me)

dulled inference
doled into this
