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
