Perennial Philosophy

I spent my whole life searching for substance Just to find an empty room In the void of endless meaning Where no faith can be assumed I spent my whole death waiting for answers Just to see the spaces filled In the sea of all my karma Where all my blood was spilled I know I'm gonna let you down Every single time I try to hide in my own lies If you can forgive me now You'll be in every breath I take if you believe that I can change I spent my rebirth chasing the devil Just to watch my cancer grow Try to snuff him out with a silence But he speaks to me so low I'll spend my last chance being the martyr Of all my wasted breath If I could wake you from this coma I'd give all I have left, give all I have left I know I'm gonna let you down Every single time I try to hide in my own lies If you can forgive me now You'll be in every breath I take if you believe that I can change I'm a fire inside abandoned walls Tearaway, unafraid to risk it all I'll give every reason to believe I am ready for so much more I'm not holding on I know I'm gonna let you down Every single time I try to hide in my own lies If you can forgive me now You'll be in every breath I take if you believe that I can change
