Saturate

Searching in your eyes Looking for something Already knowing nothing’s there Watched the flames lick everything way Leaving you empty You’re barely alive Symptoms may have gone But the disease, it still remains I welcomed in the nightmare Gave up myself in darkness This path, It’s the one I chose to take For that I am to blame Saturate Saturate I lost my halo long ago Bathing in shadows Just another lie I made you believe I’d never leave you You made me believe You had something left for me Broke all the plans we made Just threw it all away Made more than my share of mistakes But your truths were even more fake I hear your voice inside my head I wanna wake up, wanna be free Can’t tame the flames eating through me Just another lesson burned One more love letter doused in hate Saturate Saturate It’s like you always say, nothing is forever Well I’m over you and your hold on me Nothing left for me to give Everything’s been said Let the streets run red with my regrets I welcomed in the nightmare Gave up myself in darkness This path, It’s the one I chose to take For that I am to blame Saturate
