Rise, do you feel alive, fight back for your life See yourself scraping the mold off a dead old man's face Inside the fear that we hide, the ending in sight See yourself the face that reflects in the blade of a knife Born to be a blood soaked hero Raised to be a victim dying on your own Born to be an absolute sinner Made into a servant slave to a throne I want to take this I want to make this life I want to take this I want to make it mine Pray 'cause it's judgement day, you've wasted away See yourself down on your knee while you try to forget your crimes A prison of light with scars on your eye See yourself holding on like a thief in the night to your own life Born to be a blood soaked hero Raised to be a victim dying on your own Born to be an absolute sinner Made into a servant slave to a throne I want to take this I want to make this life I want to take this I want to make it mine It starts when you're young and your insides don't fit They stitch you back up and say just blend in Then you get old and your retinas rip You breathe in the dark as they peel back your skin And living your dreams means you can't pay your bills And the worst thing of all; we're all terminally ill Excuse me if I just don't seem like myself I'm still trying to deal back the cards I've been dealt Ingesting this meat makes me sick to my core So I force it back up till I'm flaccid and torn I could wake up but I don't sleep I could wake up but I just don't sleep Live in fear You are so blind when you're looking To the hands of time standing still This circle of life to be the kill See yourself so afraid of death every shadow is chasing you Born to be a blood soaked hero Raised to be a victim dying on your own Born to be an absolute sinner Made into a servant slave to a throne I want to take this I want to make this life I want to take this I want to make it mine I could wake up but I just don't sleep I could wake up but I just don't sleep I could wake up but I just don't sleep I could wake up but I just don't sleep
