misconstrued, but haunting
you know you barely could survive
it's apparent in this life upon you
and we're changing for the bitterness of touch
full circle, end of flame, engulf me

i never dreamed i wouldn't follow up this loss
i gotta' pay a lot to figure out this cost, this cost

but hold on and hold out
you've gotta keep me alive
you've gotta' fake the candles into burning one more lie

hold on and hold out
you've gotta' keep me alive
you've gotta' keep me alive

it's the truth, but it haunts me
you know we barely could survive
it's apparent with this knife stuck in you
and we're changing for the bitterness of touch
four circles, end of flame, engulf me

i never dreamed i wouldn't follow up this loss
i gotta' pay a lot to figure out this cost, this cost

but hold on and hold out
you've gotta keep me alive
you've gotta' fake the candles into burning one more lie

hold on and hold out
you've gotta' keep me alive
you've gotta' keep me alive

it's the truth... we're changing...
i never dreamed i wouldn't follow up this...
hold on, you've gotta' keep me alive
hold on, you've gotta' keep me alive

but hold on and hold out
you've gotta keep me alive
you've gotta' fake the candles into burning one more lie
you've gotta' fake the bastards in
