Let me tell you 'bout the things that happened Always real to me Let me tell you of my hope Of my need to reach to the sky Let me take you on an awkward journey Let me tell you why Let me tell you why Why should these curses be laid upon me? I won't be forgiven 'til I can break free What did I do to deserve all this guilt? Paid for my sins, for the sale of my soul Demons are trapped all inside of my head My hopes have gone, I reach for heaven from hell My sins are many, my guilt is too heavy The pressure of knowing, of hiding what I know I'm able to see things, things I don't want to see The lives of a thousand souls, weigh heavy down on me I know they're crying for help, reaching out The burden of them will take me down as well The sin of a thousand souls not died in vain Reincarnates to let me live again Chorus: (x2) Someone to save me Something to save me from myself To bring salvation To exorcise this hell 2nd Chorus: Someone to save me Something to save me from my hell Our destination Awake from this nightmare Chorus: Someone to save me Something to save me from myself To bring salvation To exorcise this hell
