Subservient No More

By Graveyard_Desciple

Lost inside another dream
with no hope to see the light of day again
I wish I had something here to bring me back
Something here to give me strength to carry on
I despise my reflection
looking into the face of my enemy
I close my eyes to shield myself from hatred
I create an opening for my release

Pick me up now
Carry me home
I take my life
to better yours

Drowning in a pool of crimson
I can feel the chill as my body lets go
Heaven is not my rightful destination
Now I am trapped here for eternity
Forever I'll haunt your dreams
Everytime you close your eyes you'll see my face
No longer will I feel the weight of your chains
I choose to take off my mask of contemption

Pick me up now
Carry me home
I take my life
to better yours

I will abandon subservience
a slave I will be no fucking more
I have abandoned obedience
I broke free of your fucking chains

Pick me up now
Carry me home
I take my life
to better yours

Pick me up now
Carry me home
I take my life
to better yours
