lyrics
I won't stand by and watch you burn.
I won't stand by lies.
Brace for your life, it's crashing down.
Justify, it won't save you.
I won't ever follow.
They don't even bother.
And I won't be the martyr.
This cause dies young.
Eyes shut.
Hands bound.
Last breath.
Time has run out.
Shaking from the lack of your drug.
Stronger than I ever thought.
Close your eyes dusk has arrived.
Lay your head and cross your heart.
This war you've lost.
I won't ever follow.
They don't even bother.
And I won't be the martyr.
This cause dies young.
Eyes shut.
Hands bound.
Last breath.
I can't, I won't, save you. Let you go.
You suffer from karma.
I won't save you.
And when the dust settles.
And you find you have nothing left,
of the life you once had.
It's nevermore.
I won't ever follow.
They don't even bother.
And I won't be the martyr.
This cause dies young.
Eyes shut.
Hands bound.
Bled out.
I won't save you.
I won't stand by and watch you burn.
I won't stand by lies.
Brace for your life, it's crashing down.
Justify it won't save you...
This time, burn out, no light.
The shades of black will consume.
All that, you are, darkness.
The shades of black will consume you.
I won't stand by lies.
Brace for your life, it's crashing down.
Justify, it won't save you.
I won't ever follow.
They don't even bother.
And I won't be the martyr.
This cause dies young.
Eyes shut.
Hands bound.
Last breath.
Time has run out.
Shaking from the lack of your drug.
Stronger than I ever thought.
Close your eyes dusk has arrived.
Lay your head and cross your heart.
This war you've lost.
I won't ever follow.
They don't even bother.
And I won't be the martyr.
This cause dies young.
Eyes shut.
Hands bound.
Last breath.
I can't, I won't, save you. Let you go.
You suffer from karma.
I won't save you.
And when the dust settles.
And you find you have nothing left,
of the life you once had.
It's nevermore.
I won't ever follow.
They don't even bother.
And I won't be the martyr.
This cause dies young.
Eyes shut.
Hands bound.
Bled out.
I won't save you.
I won't stand by and watch you burn.
I won't stand by lies.
Brace for your life, it's crashing down.
Justify it won't save you...
This time, burn out, no light.
The shades of black will consume.
All that, you are, darkness.
The shades of black will consume you.
