lyrics

In retrospective
What can you give
That has not been sold

The violation
Of human nature
Is ingrained in you

I hate you but I don't know why
All these feelings buried deep inside
You bring out the worst in me

Your ends do not justify the means
Sometimes all is not what it seems
You bring out the worst in me

I tried and tried, to keep my sins inside
We're running, running out of time
Through adversity we become
Stronger
We run faster
We jump higher
Through the fire
But all this time you let the fires burn

I hate you but I don't know why
All these feelings buried deep inside
You bring out the worst in me

Your twisted nature pulled you down
A horrid smile behind your frown
You bring out the worst in me

I tried and tried, to keep my sins inside
We're running, running out of time
Through adversity we become
Stronger
We run faster
We jump higher
Through the fire
But all this time you let the fires burn

Burn

Dig through the surface
Release your burdens
You live in your lies
And blocked out our cries

I gave you the option to
Take back your actions
You spat in my face
And now you´ll live in disgrace

Your actions have spoken
They left our bonds broken
You could have been free
You bring out the worst in me

I tried and tried, to let our disputes die
We're running, running out of time
Through adversity we become so much
Stronger
We run faster
We jump higher
Through the fire

But all this time you let the fires burn
Burn
