A Modest Proposal

Torn apart, don’t waste your time defending what I have become, all hope is gone
So this is when you throw me to the wolves, there’s nothing left of me to be
disappointed in
The less I try, the less I fail, somehow it’s still no good I’m stuck in this
cycle
Don’t tell anyone I’ve lost my mind, this is such a vicious cycle,
a vicious cycle
This is the trend, this is the thread, sign your name on the line to be just
like the rest.
Can you keep a secret, just for tonight? I’m not as strong as you thought I was
Why won’t you heed my warning? They think you’re so alive as you’re dying within
Each moment that passes, your will begins to break.
I refuse to let this be the end, there must be a way out, I’ll find a way out
Pick me, just bring me back, God you know I can’t do this alone.
Don’t trust me i’ll always let you down, I have become so weak
Take the hand of the King in the arms of your victor before it’s too late.
Can you keep a secret, just for tonight? I’m not as strong as you thought I was
Why won’t you heed my warning? They think you’re so alive as you’re dying within
Each moment that passes, your will begins to break.
I refuse to let this be the end, there must be a way out, I’ll find a way out
They think you’re so alive as you’re dying within.
Sing me praise with your words, break my heart with your actions
You stand strong in their eyes, but how long can you keep this up?
They think you’re so alive as you’re dying within.
Where your heart is, there lies your God.
Make your choice, your time is short
As for me, my heart lies in the hands of the one who’s conquered the grave.
