lyrics

Angry at the world
This is the aftermath
I lit the flame and threw the match
Time after time life takes without giving
My heart has turned to stone

This is how it feels to have nothing left
All of my efforts are now in vain
When all is said and done
I'm broken and bitter and hate my own name
This is how it feels to have nothing left
This is how it feels to hate yourself

God give me strength to find my way back home

I'll take the blame for the way I turned out in the end
I promised change but I stayed the same
This isn't what I meant

Angry at the world
This is the aftermath
I lit the flame and threw the match
Time after time life takes without giving
My heart has turned to stone

Pushing away those who are close to me
Blaming God for all my sufferings
Hating myself so passionately
Loneliness has become therapy

I'll take the blame for the way I turned out in the end
I promised change but I stayed the same
This isn't what I meant

If I could change one thing about myself
I would change the way I see the world
God, all I want is to love who I am
And be content with the way I see the world

I'll burn down every thought
That takes me to that hell
Through the depression and the hatred
I won't rest until I'm standing on the ashes

I'll burn down every thought until I'm standing on the ashes
