In the eyes of the pure I see the other side
Refused to hide my pride, I laid it on the line
Now I'm faced with what I couldn't embrace
Too little too late, nothing but a sour taste
I said my prayers to god, so he answered me
Gave me what I wanted, not what I needed
Turned away from the light, every day's darker
With each line I write, the heart grows harder
So what do I do
With the promises I made
So what do I do
Do I shine or do I fade?
So what do I do
In my ways I'm set
Wait and see what I do
I'm not finished yet
Trust in no one and no one will trust in you
Failed the test
Tried, not f**ing true
Locked up in four chambers till the blood runs out
Bound and gagged with your foot in your mouth
Smoke it down to the filter
Like a slap in the face
It's been a long time coming
Gone without a trace
I know the night is young
But I feel so old
Cold air fills my lungs
I'm almost home
So what do I do
With the promises I made
So what do I do
Do I shine or do I fade?
So what do I do
In my ways I'm set
Wait and see what I do
I'm not finished yet
Benefit of the doubt, you sold me out
Enemy of my enemy, sight unseen
No use coming clean
Unsuspected, standing corrected
Disbelief suspended.
