lyrics
I swear I know myself
Better than I sing about in my songs
But I was wrong
I swear I’m not afraid
To try and fail
But I was wrong
My whole life has been a vicious cycle
Of trying to convince myself I’m right
I will not run, I cannot run
From the failures that tell me otherwise
All I am and all I’ve done will go away in the end
Empty words and empty thoughts
Have become my only friends
Everything that I’ve ever done
Means nothing when I am gone
Why should I care? While I’m still here
With this pressure building up inside my lungs
When I die I hope that my life wasn’t just a trend
An empty tomb, an empty grave
Has become my greatest friend
I swear I know myself
Better than I sing about in my songs
But I was wrong
(I was wrong all along)
I swear I’m not afraid
To try and fail
But I was wrong
(I was wrong all along)

This is the album that got me into Zao. I had heard Splinter, Blood, and Liberate, but they didn't really do it for me (although I did enjoy the listen). Cue the first track on this album. Within the first 30 seconds I knew I had to have it. Bought the cd within the day. This album is a whole 'nother beast.
Oh, and the clean vocals? SPOT ON. TheSpyHunter
