lyrics

BLEED THE SYMPHONY:
I'm crashing into the lighthouse
I'm crashing into the ocean
I'm going down, I'm circling 'round
In this endless display of devotion
I'm under the spyglass, exposed like a maze with a rat
And everything is going too fast
My will is restricted, restrained and conflicted
Confusing the future, the present and past

Torn between the things I love
I don't know what I want
Somebody show me the way out...if there is a way out

I only suffer when I'm awake
I'm forced to create
While others subscribe and idealize
I'm trying to hide
I feel incomplete, I can't take the heat
All the pressure that's building is giving me chills
And the tall expectations release devastation
Inside of my head, this void can't be filled

Torn between the things I love
I don't know what I want
Somebody show me the answer

When I'm forced to bleed the symphony
I think it's over for me
When I'm forced to bleed the symphony
I think it's over and over and over and over for me

I'm going to change the shape of the world
With one step for man and one leap of death
I'm going to change the shape of the world
By writing a poem no one understands
I'm going to change the shape of the world
With one fucking bullet in one fucking gun
I'm going to change the shape of the world
Then I'll be somebody, then I'll be someone

Torn between the things I love
I don't know what I want
Somebody show me the answer

When I'm forced to bleed the symphony
I think it's over for me
When I'm forced to bleed the symphony
I think it's over and over and over and over for me
