Lyrics

I'm tossed aside

I feel rejected and abandoned

Neglected and broken

Left uncared for and damaged

I'm sick of it all

I am tired of everything

So bleak are the shadows inside

The internal struggles and darkness are overwhelming


I've lost all hope, the fear and dread is never ending

I have lost all optimism; fear and anxiety persist

These heinous thoughts swirl twisting through my mind

Negative thoughts are tormenting my mind

Ghosts of regret haunt the walls, foundations that i'm building

Regrets linger, affecting the foundations I'm trying to build

Slowly cracked the structures tumble down

The structures I've built are slowly falling apart


I've tried to cast out these words of doubt

I attempted to dispel doubts, but they remain

Left lying broken dreams blacked out

Broken dreams are abandoned and forgotten

I've got no voice failure swallows my every word

My voice is unheard, failure consumes my words


I've tried to run, but I trip over rusty shackles

Efforts to escape are hindered by past burdens

I have set sail, but still my anchor drags

Despite setting out, there's a persistent anchor holding me back

I hate the man that stares back at me in my reflection

Disdain for the person reflected in oneself

Shattered the glass, I've got no will to live

Broken and lacking the will to continue living


Don't let these demons take hold of you

Encouraging others not to succumb to inner demons

You're worth much more than they value

Asserting one's inherent value


The past is past you must move on

Encouragement to move forward from the past

Just live and learn from what went wrong

Advising to learn from mistakes and continue living

Although the ghosts haunt time to time

Though haunted by the past, urging to persevere

Ignore them all stay on this climb

Advocating to ignore the haunting and continue climbing in life


The past is the past

Emphasizing the importance of leaving the past behind

Just live in the moment

Encouraging living in the present moment

So scream this with me

Expressing a strong, collective declaration

We choose our destiny

Affirmation of personal agency in determining one's fate
