No more searching, I've seen enough ruins
No more hiding, no haven left that's solid
I'm just a ghost wandering
In these solitary streets
Empty and gloomy, mirroring me
From the cracked sidewalks leaks a story
I'm just a ghost wandering
As I get lost in these streets, I get closer to me
These places pass through me
Again I fall with solitude by me
When every face becomes the same
Solitude is my friend
A blessing and a curse
Everything I've ever had
In this ocean of distrust
Darkness is a Nile
When a home is non-existent
My soul's trapped in a state of exile
So I'll sink to deep and sing the same songs
Banished from the sky, in my niche for one
"I am the dead one, who won't accept death
I am the hateful one, trying to find love again
I'm here where I'm not, this is a life I must accept
I'm the unwanted one, I'll make sure you never forget
Fuck you for hating, full of spite I will survive
Fuck you for hating, full of spite I will survive
Fuck you for hating, full of spite I will survive
Fuck you for hating, full of spite I will survive"
I never thought that I would sing this song
But now I see that we can never truly belong
I never thought I would live this life
I've been mourning since the day my innocence died
This is the story of a ghost in a skin
Since the day I was born, everything I've every been
This is the story of an exile
And it will end the way that I write
"I will live more than you let me,
I will be more than you let me."
