DAMNATION AD LYRICS

1. Addiction

Damned for breaking, breaking the chain
Stay in line, stay the same
Obey is the only command
Surrender all your thoughts
Big brother is watching

You have to give up your freedom
Standing on unsold ground
So much talk of what you have
But you're throwing it all away
Every time you swallow
You're digging your own grave
What's left now that
Your mind and body are being controlled

Addiction dictates your fate

2. Bitter

I stare into the void that was once my life
I swear that one day I will be me again
Each turn leads me down this path alone
If I could turn back the clock, I would

I never wanted this
I never wanted this
I never wanted this bitterness
I never wanted this

This is a ceremony of self destruction
I hold on tight to what I call my own
But that has been taken away
You made me cold, can suffering make me pure?

I never wanted this
I never wanted this
I never wanted this bitterness
I never wanted this

Take the faces that haunt me
Let them share in my pain
You made me cold
Can suffering make me pure?
You make me cold
Can suffering absolve me of my sins?

3. Another Day Of Darkness

Every last ounce of hope has slipped away
And I am desperate to fight
As my world is caving in
All that is left is the mind numbing pain
And I believe that by holding on

The sun might shine
But waking to another day of darkness
Has killed my desires
No chance, hope cannot help
Carry a mind bound to agony

No I know I'm the one to blame
Because I sat back and watched
As the evil overcame me
Stare into these swollen eyes
And I know what you've done
And I believe that by holding on

4. Rain As My Veil

Can I be free?
If only I could forget
And learn how to forgive
But there is no chance of that
Tears have found a way to control my life
And leave nothing to live for
Just to wait in pain

What do I have that can' be thrown away?
Why is it so hard to just escape?

Replace what I've learned
And teach myself to hate
Struggle with my morals
But they won't let me be
As I walk alone I use the run as my veil
To conceal my real thoughts

What do I have that can' be thrown away?
Why is it so hard to just escape?

You say you know
When you're the reason why
Don't pretend to care
When you were never there

5. Time Does Not Rest

How could it all come down to this
Every word said in self-defense
Lost control of thoughts you called your own
Held on tight and you're going straight down
Time does not resist easily, easily on the weak
You're full of strength and convictions
That will never. Shine through

This facade was built to impress who?

War has been waged and you're standing alone
It never had to be this way
Sold yourself on a lie
One that even you believe
Words are powerful when people will hear
But a lie can be made, truth in your mind

This facade was built to impress who?

Holding onto what you have left
Bearing likeness to those you claim to despise
But your beliefs will not stay true
Can you stand the test of time?
