5. Living In Emptiness (4:44)
See the hate you caused yourself
The ones you loved put back in hell
You lie,you cheat,you steal for trade
Mistakes you wish you hadn't made
I hate the pain you've dropped within
I'm torn apart,I cannot live
The synthetic joy of pathetic needs
A life crumbled by your filth & greed
You've seen the road to which it leads
Alone in four walls is all you see
Instead you thought all for yourself
Without feeling wrong within itself
Can't take no more,I lose,You gain
In my world I live,I'm scarred by pain
When will it stop,your thoughtlessness??
Your life is lived in emptiness
Chorus:
You have lived in emptiness
I live alone with my hate
Aside from confused dismay
Unafraid to lose my pride
I clench my fists & cry
Betrayed I feel inside
A chance you have so you may learn
Again a chance you may conform
I doubt you'll change your sinful world
Again the family's overturned
Why not return to the kid I knew?
A boyish charm you've not outgrown
Instead a devil from within the saint
Why not wake up & play it straight?
Chorus:
You have lived in emptiness
The ones you loved put back in hell
You lie,you cheat,you steal for trade
Mistakes you wish you hadn't made
I hate the pain you've dropped within
I'm torn apart,I cannot live
The synthetic joy of pathetic needs
A life crumbled by your filth & greed
You've seen the road to which it leads
Alone in four walls is all you see
Instead you thought all for yourself
Without feeling wrong within itself
Can't take no more,I lose,You gain
In my world I live,I'm scarred by pain
When will it stop,your thoughtlessness??
Your life is lived in emptiness
Chorus:
You have lived in emptiness
I live alone with my hate
Aside from confused dismay
Unafraid to lose my pride
I clench my fists & cry
Betrayed I feel inside
A chance you have so you may learn
Again a chance you may conform
I doubt you'll change your sinful world
Again the family's overturned
Why not return to the kid I knew?
A boyish charm you've not outgrown
Instead a devil from within the saint
Why not wake up & play it straight?
Chorus:
You have lived in emptiness
