Potter's Field lyrics

Biting the hand that feeds you
Lying to the voice inside
Reach out to beg for something
This life is a lesson, take what you're given

Feeding on self destruction
Waiting to explode again
No sign of resolution
This life is a lesson, take what you're given

You don't need direction to find your way
Don't you listen to yourself now and again
Killing time, killing your mind over matter

Mother mother, can you hear me?
I keep trying just to find me
All i know now, all you show me
Endless questions, hopeless ending

This bitter pill is pushing me away
And now i feel like there's nothing left to say
And i pretend to look the other way
But in the end, will i be okay?

Father father, will you be there
As i cry out silent again?
Turning colder, frozen deeper

Something keeps on pulling me down
And I feel like I'm losing ground
Trying just to find my reasons
And losing sense of what is real

Willing to believe in something
Forgetting to believe in me
Will I find my place in your mind
Or will I fall away in time

Now I'm feeling so far away
And now I'm hating you every day

Waiting just to see the image
You follow down my road again

Step back inside the lie again
You'll find you're wearing thin
Killing the sympathy
As you take another swing at me now

Fighting your inner self again
Losing to what you feel
Shielded behind the lies
That make you feel real now

It's over and I don't feel a thing
But you're trying to break the scar again
Your spirit is bleeding as you grin
But your bridge keeps on burning at both ends

Desperate and waiting, frozen to the core
Numb to this feeling, needing something more
All I keep thinking is where i need to be
All I can hope for is someone to take me away

Before you go, you promised me something
I need to know will you leave me lifeless
Leaving me lifeless

Will I bow down to this life that I live
Will I find freedom or lose it all again

Fear falls hard like rain again, washing over me
You say nothing will ever change, what do I believe
You fall deep inside again, nothing left to see
Weakness fills your heart again, you put it to rest

Forfeit everything cause you were never strong enough
Close my eyes again and pray that I will not give up

I try to see your face again, a photograph for me

Look around and tell me what you see
A place surrounded by the hate that hides in the shadows
Inside of you, inside of me,
What can we ever hope to see if we're not lookng

Don't you want to find your own way home again
Just leave your hate behind

When will you learn to just be you
Find your own way
When will you learn to follow through
Make your own way

Looking for something to believe

How does it make you feel when I look away?
Feelings that will never seem to fade
I try to find you, you hold your head up high
I let it all fall down, do you hear me?

Falling away from this pain
So I can fly high
Feeling low just let it show
And find the words to say what you mean

Screaming silent fears, nothing left to say
Lost inside the words that bring you down

I walk to the edge again, searching for the truth
Taken by the memories of all that I've been through
If I could hear your voice I know I would be okay
I know that I've been wrong but I'm begging you to stay
Won't you stay

Will you be here or will I be alone
Will I be scared, you'll teach me how to be strong
And if I fall down will you help me carry on
I cannot do this alone

Im sorry for needing you to carry me
Its so simple sometimes when you're standing next to me

You never change, you never stay the same
Like a picture perfect sunrise
Every time with one last song to sing

Take it all away from me and tell me how you want this to be
I want you, I need you
Take it all away from me and tell me how you want this to be
I want you, I need you

It's a long walk back to reality
She puts another brick in the wall of shame she made so long ago
Trying to figure out where things went wrong
Searching through all the lies she told

Somehow she missed out
On all the things she needed most
She spent days wondering why this life is so cold
And nothing ever changes

Screaming for attention
Watch the sun steal yesterday
