a damage past is haunting me 
creeps in won't let me breathe 
i can't quite grasp psychotic thoughts (and me) the troubles lie beneath 
we won't back down its far too late 
paying the price of endeless pain our love, our hate 
which on will you embrace 

now i can't pretend 
to live this life of plastic happiness 
this plastic happiness 

because one chance is all we get to kill the questions in our minds 
just one more chance to turn around this life 

break through the structure that we see 
reach true surrondings that we seek 
and force the path we know is right 
this won't conquer quietly 
we won't back down its far too late 
paying the price of endeless pain our love, our hate 

which on will you embrace 

i'm so sad to say i've watched this tragedy take everything away from me 
i write words for my own survival 
if you don't hear them then they mean nothing at all 

i won't live like this 
in plastic happiness
