The ringing in my ears sings me the songs
Of abandoned days turned into heavy nights
My bones feel hollow and I'm dizzy with fear
Of wearing myself dead from this life
I'm losing it all for the pleasure of my sins
I'm losing it all for the skin on my back
I want everything but time punishes me
To choose between mandates of desire
And the corrupt values of dread
A cruel stalemate with no sign of weakness
I'm losing it all for the pleasure of my sins
I'm losing it all for the skin on my back
The days, the months spent in horror
The nights, the years lived in terror
I peel back time and focus in
To gain some clarity for the pleasures of my sin
I won't be the victim shadows
'Cause the will to destroy is the will to create
And I will break it all and find the third way
I will win this inner fight for faith
