22 and I'm losing heart
Self defeat becomes my art
Deconstruct, decompose

Alive not living and so it goes
I'm alone, I'm alone
A broken boy left on his own

I'm alone, I'm alone
I'm the only one left in my home


This is the year that I die
How many times have I said goodbye
Farewell to my former life

Eyes closed hold tight
Look to the light, look to the light
How many times have I said goodbye

Farewell to my former life
Eyes closed hold tight
Look to the light, look to the light

I'm ready to die

Black nights and lowest lows

And so it goes, and so it goes
Black nights and lowest lows
And so it goes


27 and I'm feeling right
Cleared out the skulls and bones from my life

Dead to myself reborn who knows
A man proud of where he goes
You have to breathe to be alive

You have to suffer to survive
You have to breathe to be alive
You have to suffer to survive


This is the year that I die
How many times have I said goodbye

Farewell to my former life
Eyes closed hold tight
Look to the light, look to the light

How many times have I said goodbye
Farewell to my former life
Eyes closed hold tight

Look to the light, look to the light
I'm ready to die


You have to breathe to be alive
You have to breathe to be alive
You have to breathe to be alive

You have to breathe to be alive

Crawl out, crawl out of your grave

Stand to your feet amazed
You've made it, you're here
No ground, no dirt, no fear

Let the light become your own
Don't let the grave be your home
