VOICES LYRICS

1. Anathema

It happened again...

It happened again...

It happened again...

2. Hostage

As I peel my face up off the floor
Another wasted chance
Another failed attempt
(Where did I go wrong?)

I've been corrupted
By the things that I've held close
They say that nothing can last forever

I fell apart again
These empty graves are haunting me
At last, I can see them
The ones that won't die
At last, I can feel them
Feeding on my lies
Feeding on my lies

Don't you love the way
I always lose my mind?
Can't you hear them saying
Stay away, just stay away?

This premonition will not be mistaken
For lonely eyes, I'm holding on tight
I fell a victim at no surprise
I'm sinking into bleeding lungs
(Sinking into bleeding lungs)

I tried to be the savior of myself
But I fell victim to all the rest
The mirror shatters before me
And I can't see what I'm becoming
Fuck... what I'm becoming

I can't decide if I should die
It doesn't matter
This isn't a test of time
So don't let me in
The Devil's holding me hostage
The Devil's holding me hostage
So don't let me in

3. Three Can Keep A Secret If Two Are Dead

Dragging myself through this hollow room
I'm scratching at the floors
My hands have turned to stone
Don't you think I've tried to escape?
These hands won't let me go

Behind this flesh there is no soul
I lost my way so I
Embrace just how I'm living

[Chorus:]
Let's live our lives so damn well
So that when Death comes for us
It will tremble
We're so far away from where we want to be
(Want to be)
I'm afraid I've become one of them
How can this be?

How can this be?
I can't breathe with all of these
Chains around me
(Chains around me)
I have been consumed
By these whispers

The floor is coming undone now
The boards have shackled me to the bed
Where has my reaper gone?

He starved me of my own restitution
All of this time
I owe him nothing
He owes me something

[Chorus:]
Let's live our lives so damn well
So that when Death comes for us
It will tremble
We're so far away from where we want to be
(Want to be)
I'm afraid I've become one of them
How can this be?

These walls captivate me
Let me live
Help me please

4. Anniversary

I've run away from my reality
Everyday It gets further away
My life is a hypocrisy
This is a relapse
This is my relapse

You left my body
Cold and ashamed
For every one to see
And no one to blame

What can we find
If we look into all of the hearts of the sane
And these walls, they reflect
All of the truths that are hidden
That we can never explain

Pray for yourself
When I am here
You could never be a
Victim of your own mistakes
Now show them your face

[Chorus:]
We all have demons
But mine are so alive
(My demons are so alive)
I've got a soul they've got a plan
To take all that I've got inside
They'll take it all away

I need you here with me
On these dark days
(These dark days)
You bring me to my knees
I'm nothing more than aching bones
You left me alone

You left me alone
I stand with my shadow beside me
I have no mercy
For anyone who tries to take my
My self control away
But you can try
I've got a remedy for your mind

When I call your name
You come crawling back to me
When you hear me say
Your fucking name
You come for me

[Chorus:]
We all have demons
But mine are so alive
(My demons are so alive)
I've got a soul they've got a plan
To take all that I've got inside
They'll take it all away

I need you here with me
On these dark days
(These dark days)
You bring me to my knees
I'm nothing more than aching bones
You left me alone

(You left me alone)
You left me alone

5. Discovering Diamonds

I shutter slowly as I watch you slowly die
But as I look at the floor
The question still remains
Was it always me?

I've been sinking for far too long
But now you're gone
You lift me up again just to let me down

Pardon me
I've got a sickness
Stay away from me because I'd rather die

I've got nothing left to give
To somebody who has lived
Through the lies and the filth that you have

Say what you will
You never will
You're fucking dead inside
I left you with what you left me with
Remember I will always get what I want

I had tried to show you everything
When everything was broken

You thought you had me
From the start
But you'll never learn
Chasing you was never worth my time
I'm fine, trust me

Looking back
I finally see where I went wrong
All of the wasted years
The wasted minds
This all could have been avoided

Time has repaired me
Am I even worthy?

I'm holding on still
Just a little further
Life is in my sights
So don't you dare give up now

[6x:]
I've been broken
I've been mended
