[00:12.20]I can't steer away from the tragedy before me, [00:17.76]Its burning luminescence holds my eye, [00:22.13]I can not understand it, you are so disenchanted [00:26.39]In your shadow of a life [00:31.57]. [00:31.83]I hold this one truth to myself: [00:38.51]To never forget where I have come from [00:42.14]Your lies beguile us all, [00:43.88]But there's still a chance to change, [00:47.08]You must forsake the facade, [00:49.26]And realize just who you are [00:51.57]. [00:52.70]For what you've done, [00:55.20]You've faded to blackness [00:59.07]Your closing eyes, sink into darkness [01:08.51].

[01:52.79]For what you've done, you've faded to blackness [01:58.85] [02:01.81]Your closing eyes, sink into darkness [02:08.56]. [02:12.00]We're so determined to blaze our own trail, [02:21.25]That we forget who we are and we cover ourselves in lies [02:31.63]But I will not, for I have sovereignty, [02:41.32]In the eyes of those who may judge me, [02:46.81]I will overcome [02:50.43]. [03:32.74]For what you've done, you've faded to blackness [03:41.81]Your closing eyes, sink into darkness
