Salvation

[Verse 1]
Blown out gauge, I may have pushed things too far
With hands left unclean, this broken machine has left me far from home
Is every breath I take just a minute too late?
The thoughts inside me overloading, is life really this hard?
The fact I’m not dead, hanging on by a thread
Is a testament to the strength left inside me

[Chorus]
Now I am alive, kicking and screaming
I know I’ll suffer for the rest of my life
Who knew you'd be a hand in the ties that bind?
A life you made so fucking complicated
A beaten path and now you question me why
My salvation is what you deny

[Verse 2]
Cold embrace, this time you've pushed me too far
Your smile deceives as you lie through your teeth and left my heart for broke
Now I erase your name from a life you claim
A temporary path you've chosen
Is life really this hard?
How long has it been?
Was the ride worth the sin?
You can lay on your cross as I drive the spikes in

[Chorus]
Now I am alive, kicking and screaming
I know I’ll suffer for the rest of my life
Who knew you'd be a hand in the ties that bind?
A life you made so fucking complicated
A beaten path and now you question me why
My salvation is what you deny

[Verse 3]
Bleed for me, all the times that I hit the ground running
Would I do it all again?
Be afraid, you look so calm when you see me coming
Don't you remember who I am?
I’m burning inside, save my soul for the rest of my life
You couldn't take this from me
You couldn't take this from me alive
Burning inside, save my soul for the rest of my life

[Outro]
My salvation, is life really this hard?
My salvation, is life really this hard?
