MY LIFE IN RUINS LYRICS

1. King Of The Hill

I am here to stay
And you could never change me
No you could never change me
I will not be silenced
I will not be silenced

2. Perceptions

Hear me now
And as my voice fills your ears
Begin to breathe slowly
Let your heart become consumed in this moment
Where everyone has lost their purpose
And everyone is finding their way
Close your eyes and focus carefully
Let my words guide you home

Separation got us nowhere
And we are going nowhere fast
And my heart it beats for you my love
Won't you wait, won't you wait for me

I swore I'd change but this is hate,
This is rage

Vengeance will be mine, I will repay
I breathe for something greater
We found our peace in the silence all around us

Separation, separation
We are going nowhere fast, We are going nowhere fast

Separation got us nowhere
And we are going nowhere fast
And my heart it beats for you my love
Won't you wait, won't you wait for me

I don't breathe for myself
I breathe for something greater than us all.

3. The Architect

I built these dreams
I won't watch them fall to failure
Just as I am, I come to you this time
I won't fade away,
And with a heavy heart I walk this path I've chosen alone
I'm slowly finding my ability to speak

This is my connection,
A way to speak when no one is listening
We run when we sense failure, but only to save ourselves

How long will we bend before we break

I built these dreams
I won't watch them fall to failure
Just as I am, I come to you this time
I won't fade away,
And with a heavy heart I walk this path I've chosen alone
So speak

This is my destiny, you could never take this

And as we go our separate ways,
I'm left standing still with no one left to blame
No one left to blame,
And I know now, we will never change
And I know now, we will never change

How long will we bend before we break

4. Redemption

Alive in a day,
Where the world turns its back on everyone
And I'm left to stand here face to face
Face to face with my consequences,
As a penitent man,
I pray I soon wake from this nightmare we call living
I've watched my empire fall to nothing, burn to ashes
Maybe one day, one day
I'll find a kingdom worthy of my cause, my cause

Here I am
Take everything, take all of me I'm yours
I'm just a broken man, whose lost all direction
Lost all direction
And its hard to know your face, when your always running away
Your always running away
And I've become a mess of a man,
Slowly learning how to love, learning how to love
Well maybe one day I'll be whole again
(And there's a ransom on my head, slowly I fell its grip tightening,
Release)

Standing before the crossroads,
With anticipation at the thought of the choice
That I'm doomed and destined to make
Between love and hate, raging inside
To each side they beckon on,
Fighting for the footholds in my mind
Is this the man that I've become, become

And I've become a mess of a man,
Slowly learning how to love, learning how to love
Well maybe one day I'll be whole again

Relief, I know its there if I just surrender
