2. Slavery (6:18)
Schizophrenia, paranoia sublime, mental see - saw all the time.
Regretting actions, repeating actions, no remorse, then heavy depression.
I know the truth, I know what I'm doing, I just cannot stop.
I might as well just die...
I've had enough of this constant battle raging in my mind, one more hit is all I need to take the strain away.
I need the drug inside me now, I feel empty without it.
I've built a wall around myself, I cannot handle life.
All my friends abandon me, my money disappears, I have nothing left to live for, I have destroyed it all...
O my Lord you're all that's left now, all that's ever left for me.
I come to you broken, empty, I am fading all away.
Change my self hate to acceptance, you know how I really feel.
Give me now your peace of mind Lord, free me from this slavery.
The world I once knew now rejects me, I no longer have place there.
Let your love embrace my heart Lord, fill me with your peaceful calm.
I do give my all to you Lord, give me peace beyond my dreams.
Free me from this constant battle, help me beat this addiction...
Regretting actions, repeating actions, no remorse, then heavy depression.
I know the truth, I know what I'm doing, I just cannot stop.
I might as well just die...
I've had enough of this constant battle raging in my mind, one more hit is all I need to take the strain away.
I need the drug inside me now, I feel empty without it.
I've built a wall around myself, I cannot handle life.
All my friends abandon me, my money disappears, I have nothing left to live for, I have destroyed it all...
O my Lord you're all that's left now, all that's ever left for me.
I come to you broken, empty, I am fading all away.
Change my self hate to acceptance, you know how I really feel.
Give me now your peace of mind Lord, free me from this slavery.
The world I once knew now rejects me, I no longer have place there.
Let your love embrace my heart Lord, fill me with your peaceful calm.
I do give my all to you Lord, give me peace beyond my dreams.
Free me from this constant battle, help me beat this addiction...
