Only one life to live, only one chance to forgive In this life all we do is take, look at all the hearts we break We can no longer hide, time has come for us to decide If we'll ever make it through, the world is waiting on you Will we ever see Beyond Blind Eyes? We will be free Live for today before the day is gone And we will live on We are all pawns in a losing game, we have only ourselves to blame Lost all sense of reality, darkness falls on humanity In the silence there's a voice to be heard, it will bring meaning to these words All we've gotta do is try and we will find a way to get by Through all the lies Beyond Blind Eyes It's so easy to see Live for today before the day is gone And we will live on {Break} Will we ever see Beyond Blind Eyes? We will be free Live for today before the day is gone And we will live on Only one life to live, only one chance to forgive

Show me like I'm blind, Tell me like I'm deaf Take away the only peace of mind that I have left Nothing's really changed but nothing's quite the same So tell me are you happy with your new last name? Shake me now, I won't feel, beat me now, I won't break Does the silent scream keep you awake? Show me how Show me now How do you feel when the scars harden over And everything is sober And nothing around you seems real? When you put me to the test And what you call your truth has become my consequence How do you feel? Think I'll take this lying down, you must be mistaken Cause I can't stand to watch my own heart be forsaken Words are only words until they're breathed and spoken And promises ain't promises when they've all been broken Show me how Show me now How do you feel when the scars harden over And everything is sober And nothing around you seems real? When you put me to the test And what you call your truth has become my consequence How do you feel? Whoa, whoa Whoa, whoa How do you feel when the scars harden over And everything is sober And nothing around you seems real? When you put me to the test And what you call your truth has become my consequence How do you feel? How do you feel? How does it feel?

Woke up in another nightmare So damn scared I'm running out of... Time is not my friend, it's just the only thing That I can still call mine Ashes scattered on the pavement In the basement and I'm losing... Faith is not my friend, it's just the last piece of me That no longer shines So I reach out for a hand For someone who will understand But no one's there How can I believe When all love does is deceive And no one cares Cause no one's there? Sidewalks painted by the shadows From the gallows and I'm falling... Farther from the places where I've always been And where I want to be So wide-eyed and so naive I believed the lie so easy Now I'm left with nothing but this mess I made And I can barely see So I reach out for a hand For someone who will understand But no one's there How can I believe When all love does is deceive And no one cares Cause no one's there? {break} How can I believe When all love does is deceive And no one cares Cause no one's there? And no one knows the pain I bear Cause no one's there

Life Goes On 04:58
We've all felt pain, we've all felt pleasure We've all struck out, we've all found treasure So many feelings universal, but some are much more rare Everybody's lost somebody But nobody's just anybody When Father Time takes your best friend I know it seems unfair It's times like these we start all over But I'm still here if you need a shoulder I've been in shoes like yours and felt that dark despair But if there's one thing I'd like to make known You don't have to go it alone We rise together, stand as one And carry on like wayward sons And though it's easier said than done Life goes on In times of trouble, times of pain I've got your back all the same And always know that love remains As life goes on I know you've heard "time makes it better" And "cherish the times you had together" You've heard every tired cliche that that old book has told But words don't help when your heart is broken And every breath feels like chokin' So I'll be right here waiting if you need someone to hold Cause if there's one thing I'd like to make known You don't have to go it alone We rise together, stand as one And carry on like wayward sons And though it's easier said than done Life goes on In times of trouble, times of pain I've got your back all the same And always know that love remains As life goes on We rise together, stand as one And carry on like wayward sons And though it's easier said than done Life goes on In times of trouble, times of pain I've got your back all the same And always know that love remains As life goes on And life goes on
