These tears run down my face
Of signs of redemtion
I swallow in my sadness
I'll never pull a shame

Hung by strings like puppets in a play
Run like slaves
Nowhere to escape
No sun burns through these darkening days

Hard to imagine I could be this way
I bleed for you
I bleed for you
I hate to see these darkening days

So deep my motivation
When the time is on my side
Everything I've had I've wasted
I've gambled all my life

Hung by strings like puppets in a play
Run like slaves
Nowhere to escape
No sun burns through these darkening days

Hard to imagine I could be this way
I believe you
Believe you
I hate to see these darkening days

Looks like all the time
I need to unwind
I can't be the way you wanted me to be
Constant pride

I've frozen mine
I'm losing mine
Hung by strings
Run like slaves

No sun burns through these darkening days
Hard to imagine I could be this way
I believe you
Believe you

I hate to see these darkening days
No sun burns through these darkening days
Hard to imagine I could be this way
I believe you

Believe you
I hate to see these darkening days
These darkening days
