lyrics

I promised myself just one more time, with these hands I change your life and mine, no need to be frightened dear, just bloody smile.

I promise you that you don't know fear, but you put on quite a convincing show, I will make you smile from ear to ear, a bloody smile.
You wanna talk? I'll make you feel the lies you told, the guilt I felt I swear you'll feel sevenfold. The silver lines between life and death have been cut, so say your final goodbye.

Your time, your time is out.

I'm binded by my mind, a gnawing beast I can't understand, it's not my hate that drives me, but the monster that lives within. I promise I am human, but now the demons are taking hold, and I can fight no longer, I guess my soul has been sold.
You pass judgements by my acts, if I'm the devil then you ain't no saint yourself, you know what's right and wrong, because you heard it from someone else. I wear a mask to hide my face, you wear yours to hide your shame you despise the things I do, but you're the ones that bring me fame. If you can read my mind, then you should've seen this coming all along. There is more to come, our story's just begun.

The walls are closing in, the pictures fall to the floor, my vision turns to red as they scream out that they have nothing to live for.
Don't focus on the pain, it's a lesson not a punishment. I've realized I'm not broken, it's all of you that make me sick. That's my smile on the wall, this is your joy, don't close your eyes. That is my smile on the wall, your blood should make you feel alive.

Can't you see? This is your salvation. I'm saving you from your damnation. Look at me, I am your salvation, an angel with human temptations.

My heartbeat slows, my breathing follows the metronome. There are no goodbyes, just a face painted clockwise. My mind will keep turning, my heart will keep hurting, god I must pay for my sins, because I know I will do it again. Over and over again. Over and over again.
