Premonition

it makes me feel like dieing again
it pushes my thoughts aside
come on lets go for a ride
drown me in the water so deep
im dreaming please wake me from this sleep
out of time and out on my feet
  i had a premonition today
  saw my life flash and fade away
  theres not a word i could use to convey
  how i feel i think ive lost my way
crashing waves out back of my brain
i think ive lost my mind again
this is becoming a trend
down this road i twist and bend
to try and find you my friend
my broken heart i need you to mend
  i had a premonition today
  saw my life flash and fade away
  theres not a word i could use to convey
  how i feel i think ive lost my way
i bleed out but you see only scars
hear the screams echoing from afar
wide open space and all you see are bars
take my hand please show me the way
off this bed of nails in which i lay
take the edge off the pain of this day
  i had a premonition today
  saw my life flash and fade away
  theres not a word i could use to convey
  how i feel i think ive lost my way
i think i have something to say
im riddled with thoughts of dismay
set me free release me from this cage
  i had a premonition today
  saw my life flash then fade away
  theres not a word i could use to convey
  how i feel i think ive lost my way

Burn For This

Bury me hastely no sunshine for me
Love lost im hurting im to blind to see
The shame of this deed is to heavy to hold
Throw me to the wolves im burdened and old
  Surely ill burn for this 
  Surely ill burn for this
Soaked in this guilt like wet clothes on my soul
Surely burning for all the lies that ive told
Hello old friend i welcome your blanket of flames 
Your dark black eyes and your numerous names
  Surely ill burn for this
  Surely ill burn for this
Ive lost again and my fates in your hands
Your words like hammers smash my heart into sand
Broken and ill from this life of sin
As you look down at my end with a *****eating grin
  Surely ill burn for this
  Surely ill burn for this
I cry out god save me it does me no good 
Hes never there when you think that he should
For i am a man alone with temptation
Appetite for the wicked a deadly sensation
  Surely ill burn for this 
  Surely ill burn for this

Get To You

will i ever get to you
unfortunatly youve got to me
i cant believe this trgady
it burns all over inside i bleed
i never wanted this to be 
so hard on you so hard on me
  will i ever get to you
  will you ever feel my sorrow
  will you ever know my trouble 
  will i ever get to you
i wish i never knew this life
i want it all to end tonight 
pack my baggage send me away
ive carried this pain 1000 days
i cant carry this heavy head
before this day is up i fear ill be dead
  will i ever get to you 
  will you ever feel my sorrow
  will you ever know my trouble 
  will i ever get to you
death knocks ever so gently at my door
this sound this pain i cant ignore
it feels like salt on an open wound
as i play this lonely tune
you will hear it you will not escape
from my song you will love to hate
  will i ever get to you
  will you ever feel my sorrow
  will you ever know my trouble
  i will get to you
