Falling
Leaving my plague behind
Cannot live this futile lie
Resurrected
Immune to your poison
The world that I see has lost its creed
Where sin speaks through the wicked
Hell repossessed
By those who burn with the guilt of being born
Trapped! Trapped in this downward spiral
A vicious circle of lies
Fuelled with revenge
Now I'm repossessing what's mine
Another beating, can't move at all
With sweet forgiviness you'll take the toll
Rise! Fight back! It's all within the mind
Trapped! Trapped in this downward spiral
A vicious circle of lies
Laugh at your foe
Now I'm repossessing what's mine
Thrust the blade
Into this corroded world
Laugh at your foe
While you set his spirit free
Pain! Guilt! Hatred!
Revelations of a dying world
Raise your fists in anger
Fight back!
Elevate in the hierarchy
Reverse the line of command
I've been burnt by the fire within
Fallen
Left my plague behind
Won't succumb to the futile lie
Resurrected
I will not give in
Trapped! Trapped in this downward spiral
A vicious circle of lies
Hell repossessed
I've been burnt by the fires within
Escaping this downward spiral
Free to breathe again
Only to return once more
