  • What have I done?
    Where have I come from?
    When I burnt the backs with the sun through a glass
    Did I seal the loss that's become me?

    Feeling undone
    What have I become?
    When I turned my back on you
    I turned my back on myself
    And became this machine

    Thoughtlessness (I feel)
    Selfishness
    Hopelessness (I feel)
    Arrogant (I feel)

    I feel it on the inside (inside)
    Twisting and contorting
    Memory has shaped me once again

    Still feel you on the inside (inside)
    Biting through and stinging
    Will I ever forget to remember?

    Shadows in the sun filter through us
    Still wrestle the demons
    That arrested me as a child, confession rejected
    We grow up to give up
    People step on the cracks
    For wounds owed, paid back
    Through the words of surrender

    Emptiness (I feel)
    Loneliness
    Listlessness (I feel)
    Worthless (I feel)

    I feel it on the inside (inside)
    Twisting and contorting
    Memory has shaped me once again
    Still feel you on the inside (inside)
    Biting through and stinging
    Will I ever forget to remember?

    Oh, can you save me from myself? (Myself)
    From these memories
    Oh, can you save me from myself? (Myself)
    From these memories

    Surrender to the shadows
    Haunting inside
    Bleed through you
    Surrender to the secrets, inside
    Lies within you

    I feel it on the inside (inside)
    Twisting and contorting
    Memory has shaped me once again (inside)
    Still feel you on the inside
    Biting through and stinging
    Will I ever forget to remember?

    Can't feel you on the inside (inside)
    Set down the bag and left it
    Lost memory has left me, one again
    Open up the inside (inside)
    Admission for the cleansing
    Now that I've forgotten to remember

    Surrender to the shadows
    Haunting inside
    Bleed through you Writer/s: Chad L. Gray, Greg Tribbett, Matthew Mcdonough, Ryan Martinie
