So Here Lies Inspiration

I will not live my life as a lie

They try to rebuild me, but

I will not live my life as a lie

They can't reinvent me

So brace yourself because it's only the beginning

Though battered bones have been through more than any should

It's not my fault that this world is so unforgiving

It goes to show that I never had a chance

This fragile mind is trying to make the best of what's torn

Its this we try to hide

We can not stray from every broken promise

We've been betrayed by those who bear our name

Why must we pay for their mistakes

I will not live my life as a lie

They try to rebuild me, but

I will not live my life as a lie

They can't reinvent me

These broken hands make broken things and

I can not be what you wanted me to be

So write me off as just another failure

I'm sorry but your ink wont justify me

We can not stray from every broken promise

We've been betrayed by those who bear our name

I spend nights in search of any light, but I

I walk in shadows

Pleading eyes beg for the sun to rise once more

Forever shadows

I try to take control

But I can't shake sorrow

If deaths cold grip should take its hold

Then mark my grave unknown

It's said to live life with a heart of gold

But a heart of stone is all I really have to show

And if I'm not the only one in this world

Then tell me why do I feel so damn alone

I can't live like this forever

We need to find a better way

I can't live like this forever

We need to find a better way
