Fall from Grace

from L'appel du Vide by WitchHands

lyrics

I think I’m better off here /
I asked you, not don’t follow /
I just need some time to be alone.

Let me collapse in on myself /
Given time, I’ll be fine please /
Understand this is just my cross to bear.

I wonder if I am really better off alive /
or if I should have died that night

I know it’s not right /
but it gets so hard sometimes /
as I grow weary from this war within my mind

I know I shouldn’t be here /
Please give me just a moment /
There are things I feel I should explain.

I don’t know why I get this way /
I wish I didn’t do this /
I’m just so scared of driving you away.

Maybe it’s true /
that every day’s a little harder than the last /
as we become too tired /
to deal with all this shit expected from us

But me, I think that we just play that we're the victim /
when our fantasies don’t turn out /
quite the way that we’ve envisioned, no

I don’t know how I got here /
It’s cold and dark, and I’m afraid /
to be in this familiar place/

The echoes seem to linger /
stains of time are seeping through /
I cannot wash you off my skin

Well, I am just a broken toy /
I cannot blame you for discarding me /
no I could not blame you for anything at all /

Even your god has turned her back on me /
forgotten what it once meant to believe /
I can no longer bear the wretched weight of being

I wonder if I am really better off alive /
or if I should have died that night (died that night)

Well, I know it’s not right /
but it gets so hard sometimes /
as I grow weary from this war within my mind
(within my mind)
