The Mortal

Am i supposed to die
With my heart in my hands
Was i ever truly free
Is this how it was meant to be
Am i just holding on
Or just holding off
This life's become too much
Why fight it anymore

[Chorus]
I am not beyond the tears
The tears that are ripping at my heart
I am not beyond the pain
The pain that tears my soul apart

I have lost all hope
The only joy i feel
Comes from tightening this rope
And knowing the end is near
Misery fuels the fire
Which leaves my charred remains
All of my life
Has been spent in vain

[Chorus]
I am not beyond the tears
The tears that are ripping at my heart
I am not beyond the pain
The pain that tears my soul apart

I thought i was strong
Now i know i was wrong
I try to pretend
Putting off the end
I thought i was strong
Now i know i was wrong
I try to pretend
Putting off the end

At the final turn i see
How life was meant to be
With no regrets i tie the knot
And with death i am apart
