Cross This Bridge - Falling Apart Lyrics

Distant voices come to me through a cloud of happiness
Hollow phrases and phony laughter, the sound of emptiness
And the world turns red
As I scream in dread

As I try to push the horror back into its cage
My clouded mind is fascinated by this creature, made of rage
And the world turn to ice
As I roll the dice

On and on we struggle, stumbling down the spiral
That leads to pain and death and lasting fear
I lose myself in egocentric sacrifice
That serves to no one, now the end is here

Broken and cracked I lay on the ground
The creature I unleashed has now come around
It's staring at me and moves into my heart
I feel my morality falling apart

Arrogance knows no boundaries in dark alleys in the night
Complicated reasons but at last I`m ready to fight
And the world turns to fire
Carries me higher

As the conflict escalates the creature grins at me
Its victory is now complete I drown in a black sea
And the world turns dark
And it leaves a mark

I awake and feel the pain and shame and guilt of
Conquered souls that has been overthrown
For now the beast is gone but don`t be fooled
Its absence is no promise of a golden dawn

Broken and cracked I lay on the ground
The creature I unleashed has now come around
It's staring at me and moves into my heart
I feel my morality falling apart

Now you see all the demons in me
Now you smell the stench of my fear
The hate and the doubt in my fragile mind
My eyes open wide although I went blind

Broken and cracked I lay on the ground
The creature I unleashed has now come around
It's staring at me and moves into my heart
I feel my morality falling apart
