A link to the past

There is supposed to be light at the end (of the tunnel)
But all I see is just more tunnel
Tomorrow all of the sorrow
But we just keep keeping on

You cut yourself to sleep
Lost in a nightmare far too deep
You give with one hand
But you take away with the other

You can have your way with me
Being your rock takes everything I’ve got
You keep me convinced
There’s something good still left in this ruined world

I shrugged off your punch to my face
And collected the teeth from the ground
Tossed them back in my mouth
Friendly fire has made me strong

Just grab life by the throat
And chokeslam it to the ground
Life is as hard as it gets
Doesn’t help with your regrets

You can have your way with me
Being your rock takes everything I’ve got
You keep me convinced
There’s something good still left in this ruined world

What takes us back are memories
What carries us forward are our dreams
Until death (will) do us a part

You can have your way with me
Being your rock takes everything I’ve got
You keep me convinced

You can have your way with me
Being your rock takes everything I’ve got
You keep me convinced
There’s something good still left in this ruined world
We can travel south until
Our hearts start beating, start beating again
I know you are
The only thing still good about this world
