August Burns Red Exhumed
Cut me loose
Like a convict
Who never committed the crime
Hit the floor
Running like a house on fire
Your facts are all conspiracies
It's evident you never cared about me
Walking miles without moving an inch
Feeling distance by those in need
I'm not the one
Who made you the victim
You said you did that on your own
Hope is fading deep within
When negativity is all you know
There's more than one way
To murder a man
You sealed my fate
With nails made by my own hands
I've been given the keys
To a new kingdom
And I'm locking you out
Open the door to oblivion
It's undoing my memories
And rewriting my legacy
I'm not the one letting bad news lie
Peel back the layers, uncover the reasons why
An obsession is now a compulsion
I used to conjure up the worst inside
You made me lean on a crutch of splinters
The sting is all I'll remember
You told me to learn to live with it
Now I'm learning to live without you
I've never pushed aside anything so fast
My future's brighter than my past
The most terrifying nightmares
Were all within me
My demons die today
I rose from the grave
So I could erase your name
My demons and my defeat
All die today
