[Verse 1:]

This is the death of me

I feel it constantly

just like an enemy

that wants to see me bleed

So I try to be silent, but my words, they explode like hand grenades

I just gotta stay calm, before I let this time bomb blow up in my face



[Chorus 1:]

these issues pin me to the floor

these issues are my overlord

I feel so dominated

these issues, they choke my like a noose

issues, they choke me like a noose

issues, they choke me like a noose



[Verse 2:]

the hounds have helped me cry

that's how they give to me

inject my head with lies, the pain's astonishing

like a flick or a stone, slowing crushing my bones, sending me to my grave

and if such a fate this life that I am going insane



[Chorus 2:]

these issues pin me to the floor

these issues are my overlord

I feel so dominated

these issues, they choke my like a noose

issues, they choke me like a noose

issues, they choke me like a noose

issues

issues, they choke me like a noose



[Chorus 3:]

these issues pin me to the floor

these issues are my overlord

I feel so dominated

these issues, they choke my like a noose

issues, they choke me like a noose

issues, they choke me like a noose

issues, they choke me like a noose

issues, they choke me like a noose



Now I think I understand

How this world can overcome a man

Like a friend we saw it through

In the end I gave my life for you



Gave you all I had to give

Found a place for me to rest my head

While I may be hard to find

Heard there's peace just on the other side



Not that I could

Or that I would

Let it burn

Under my skin

Let it burn



Left this life to set me free

Took a piece of you inside of me

All this hurt can finally fade

Promise me you'll never feel afraid



Not that I could

Or that I would

Let it burn

Under my skin

Let it burn



I hope it's worth it

Out on the highway, yeah

I know you'll find your own way

When I'm not with you

So tell everybody

The ones who walk beside me, yeah

I hope you'll find your own way

When I'm not with you tonight



I hope it's worth it

What's left behind me, yeah

I know you'll find your own way

When I'm not with you

So tell everybody

The ones who walk beside me, yeah

I know you'll find your own way

When I'm not with you tonight
