"Into The Darkness" Lyrics:
Holding on so tight, but I know this can't end right
Or the way I want it to
So I'll just wait for the chance to break free
From all this hypocrisy

It's killing me inside each day that I survive
A never ending chain of pain that I survive
I know I can't go on much longer deep down inside
I know I can't deep down inside

Holding on so tight, but I know this can't end right
Or the way that I want it to
So I'll just wait for the chance to break free
From all this hypocrisy

So take this down into the darkness
To fill this hole that was your heart
You'll never find this peace again
'Cause this is where you always fall apart
And now you feel that
The beginning of the end is near
So you run to the safest place
The safest place to rest your fear

Irrelevance is the only thing that I have left to fear
If I can't save myself from disgrace then I know
That I will end up right back here

It's killing me inside each day that I survive
A never ending chain of pain that I survive
I know I can't go on much longer deep down inside
I know I can't deep down inside

So take this down into the darkness
To fill this hole that was your heart
You'll never find this peace again
'Cause this is where you always fall apart
And now you feel that
The beginning of the end is near
So you run to the safest place
The safest place to rest your fear

Irrelevance is the only thing that I have left to fear
If I can't save myself from disgrace then I know
That I will end up right back here

"Bring The End" Lyrics:
I'll cleanse my hands and change my name
Our lives will never be the same
I took you down right by the throat
There's no escape, that's all she wrote
Don't give away all that we've shared
There is nothing that's compared
Through what we've felt we've been repaid
Into this dark abyss I fade

There's nothing more for us here
The beginning of the end is what I fear
All is as it was meant to be
If we bring the end it will set us free

I've disappeared several times before
Don't expect me to be coming back for more
I'm not even going to stay here and fight
I'm leaving now, soon I'll be out of sight

And now that I look back I can see
Just how things have been planned out for me
And I hope that I can compromise
With the way I'm sealing my own demise

There's nothing more for us here
(There's nothing more for us here)
The beginning of the end is what I fear
(The beginning of the end is what I fear)
All is as it was meant to be
(All is as it was meant to be)
If we bring the end it will set us free

I've disappeared several times before
(I've disappeared several times)
Don't expect me to be coming back for more
(I'm not coming back)
I'm not even going to stay here and fight
I'm leaving now, soon I'll be out of sight
(I'll be out of sight)

And now that I look back I can see
Just how things have been planned out for me
And I hope that I can compromise
With the way I'm sealing my own demise

You don't know me
This will bring the end
I will take back what's mine
I won't back down this time
I will take back what's mine
I won't back down this time

I'll cleanse my hands and change my name
Our lives will never be the same
I took you down right by the throat
There's no escape, that's all she wrote
Don't give away all that we've shared
There is nothing that's compared
Through what we've felt we've been repaid
Into this dark abyss I fade

"The End Of The Road" Lyrics:
We've reached the end of the road
I've lost my way back and I still don't know
What it was that you wanted from me
I'll divide my life in sections
We'll head in different directions
You won't be hearing again from me

There's a fine line between now and then
And I find myself living out my nightmares again
And I know I'll give myself a second chance
In spite of all this death and romance
There's been a loss of understanding here
I almost miss the times when you weren't sincere
I'd rather gaze into the sun and go blind
At least you still have 'your' best interest in mind

I won't forget what you've done for me (This time)
I always think about how things would have turned out
(I always think)
If you hadn't been there every time
(You hadn't been there every time)
And how much would it cost for a second of your time?
(Please, take your precious time)

I won't forget what you've done for me (This time)
I won't let down your hopes for time when you are not alone
I won't forget what you've done for me (This time)
I'll give it all a second look
Don't force a change in my tone

Don't force a change in my tone
(Don't force a change in my tone)
I know that you want to go home
(Want to go home)
Don't forget that you're not alone
(Don't forget you're not alone)
Have faith I'll be coming home

Don't force a change in my tone
(Don't force a change in my tone)
I know that you want to go home
(Want to go home)
Don't forget that you're not alone
(Don't forget you're not alone)
Have faith I'll be coming home

I won't forget what you've done for me (This time)
I won't let down your hopes for time when you are not alone
I won't forget what you've done for me (This time)
I'll give it all a second look, don't force a change in my tone

There's a fine line between now and then
And I find myself living out my nightmares again
And I know I'll give myself a second chance
In spite of all this death and romance
There's been a loss of understanding here
I almost miss the times when you weren't sincere
I'd rather gaze into the sun and go blind
At least you still have 'your' best interest in mind

We've reached the end of the road
I've lost my way back and I still don't know
What it was that you wanted from me
I'll divide my life in sections
We'll head in different directions
You won't be hearing again from me

I'm Not Who You Wanted Me To Be by Shatter The Curse from the album These Silent Nights.

"I'm Not Who You Wanted Me To Be" Lyrics:
I'd like to know how you got your taste
Just give it up it's all just a waste
When do I ever get your honesty?
That's why this was never meant to be

I'm not who you wanted me to be
I won't promise that I won't be me
I won't change me for you
Just like you always wanted me to

Oh, why can't you just like me for me
And give into the fact that I am free?
Since when don't I have my own choice
To be who I am with my own voice?

I'm not who you wanted me to be
I won't promise that I won't be me
I won't change me for you
Just like you always wanted me to

So when I say, "It's my time" ("It's my time")
Don't try to give me a piece of your mind (Of your mind)
So let's finish this game (So let's finish this game)
Of 'I Don't Care', 'cause you're the one to blame
Not me
Not me
Not me
Not me

I'm not who you wanted me to be
I won't promise that I won't be me
I won't change me for you
Just like you always wanted me to

I'm not who you wanted me to be
(I'm not who you wanted me to be)
I won't promise that I won't be me
(I won't promise that I won't be me)
I won't change me for you
(I won't change me for you)
Just like you always wanted me to

I'm Not Who You Wanted Me To Be

When Tomorrow Comes by Shatter The Curse from the album These Silent Nights.

"When Tomorrow Comes" Lyrics:
When tomorrow comes, I'll forget this happened
And move on from the past
Let me take back everything
From what has come to last
Let's break away from these silent nights
And move on from the past
Everything leads back to me

Break away
When tomorrow comes
Break away
When tomorrow comes
Break away
When tomorrow comes
Break away
When tomorrow comes

Let's find a way to get back to our lives
In hopes of finding out what's happened over time
I never wanted it to be this way for us
I never thought you'd be the one convicted of this crime

When tomorrow comes, I'll forget this happened
And move on from the past
Let me take back everything
From what has come to last
I break away from these silent nights
With all of these broken dreams
Everything leads back to me
The end of this it seems

The Uprising by Shatter The Curse from the album These Silent Nights.

"The Uprising" Lyrics:
And I can't kill the trend
But I'll never stop exceeding
All expectations I've set for myself
And I'm numb to it now
All the thoughts of what I could have been
Before my hopes went down the drain

And I'm stuck in this routine of misunderstanding (Misunderstanding)
And struggling to live with uncertainty
And it's not the same, there's no pretending (No pretending)
That this is the way life was meant to be for me

And I'll never stop again
And I'll never stop believing in myself
Because I know
That I can climb to the top
And become what I've always dreamed that I would become
And I'll take back control of my life again

And I'm stuck in this routine of misunderstanding (Misunderstanding)
And struggling to live with uncertainty
And it's not the same, there's no pretending (No pretending)
That this is the way life was meant to be for me

I now know what I was meant to do
I now know what I was meant to do (What I was meant to do)
And it does not concern the likes of you (The likes of you)

I now know what I was meant to do (What I was meant to do)
But it's not the first test of strength
That I've went through (That I've went through)
You were not meant to bring me peace at all
I must face this by myself
I must stand tall
I must stand tall or not at all
I must stand tall

And I'm stuck in this routine of misunderstanding (Misunderstanding)
And struggling to live with uncertainty
And it's not the same, there's no pretending (No pretending)
That this is the way life was meant to be for me

"The One You Can't Forget" Lyrics:
When I die, I'll find comfort in your pain
As blood runs from these veins
When this ends, there'll be nothing you can gain
As blood runs from these veins
It soaks and then it stains
Internally remains

Falling fast into the sky
I'll break this down into a lie
It's something that you won't forget
For years I've lived without regret
And I'll see this to the end you see
My life was mine but never free
And this is something you will regret
'Cause I'm the one you can't forget, no
The one you can't forgot, no
You can't forget

When I die, I'll make this look like a game
A game to place the blame
When this ends, there'll be nothing but your shame
A game to place the blame
It makes us feel the same
But you're left without the fame

Falling fast into the sky
I'll break this down into a lie
It's something that you won't forget
For years I've lived without regret
And I'll see this to the end you see
My life was mine but never free
And this is something you will regret
'Cause I'm the one you can't forget, no

There'll be nothing but your shame
A game to place the blame
It makes us feel the same
But you're left without the fame

Falling fast into the sky
I'll break this down into a lie
It's something that you won't forget
For years I've lived without regret
And I'll see this to the end you see
My life was mine but never free
And this is something you will regret
'Cause I'm the one you can't forget, no

This was all I could ask for
The best day for us to settle the score
I'd give it all just to get my fix
And you'd give it all to get your wish
To leave like you've got nothing real
And give yourself no time to heal
This is something you will regret
'Cause I'm the one you can't forget, no
The one you can't forgot, no
You can't forget

I'll find comfort in your pain
As blood runs from these veins
It soaks and then it stains
Internally remains
