Boysetsfire - The Misery Index lyrics

My life Charred remains of a flame that's burned out My lips move but they won't make a sound I stand motionless, eyes to the ground Back for more With reopened scars I remain Battered savagely, knees start to shake I just stand there, I take it, I wait I'm just waiting for time to erase And the world to change Until then I will strive for nothing more I'll just wait for my heart to break And arise from ash, reborn, reborn Look at me Cut my eye and allow me to see What my life has become on my knees I hear the screams, I watch myself bleed But I can't feel a thing, what am I But a victim unwilling to rise Wretched shell of a man and his pride Why stop living, I'm just waiting to die I'm just waiting for time to erase And the world to change Until then I will strive for nothing more I'll just wait for my heart to break And arise from ash, reborn, reborn My life, it's so familiar Why lie when everything's the same But who am I And what am I Waiting for anyway? I'm just waiting for time to erase And the world to change Until then I will strive for nothing more I'll just wait for my heart to break And arise from ash, reborn, reborn...
