On album False Idol (2017)

False Idol
From the dust, I rose up and brought hell
Unchained but captive, in hate I dwell
The power controls me
Darkness, the Goddess who knows me

I'm ashamed of what I've become
Sick of myself, sick of being numb
I'm ashamed of what I've become
I am not enough, I have given up

I'm not who I was (Who I was)
And I wish I was a better man but I am who I am (Who I am)
I crawl the from the dust (From the dust)
And I've never seemed to understand but this is who I am (Who I am)

I've disgraced this crown of blood
I am simply not enough
Forgive me for giving up
Salvation can't save what I've done

Lost and stricken with despair
Crippled kingdom lies unrepaired
Despair

I long for the moment I no longer breathe air

I'm not who I was (Who I was)
And I wish I was a better man but I am who I am (Who I am)
I crawl the from the dust (From the dust)
And I've never seemed to understand but this is who I am (Who I am)

I've disgraced this crown of blood
I am simply not enough
Forgive me for giving up
Salvation can't save what I've done

Lost and stricken with despair
Crippled kingdom lies unrepaired
Despair

Accept my fate, ascending now skywards
My body shakes, the top of this tower
I face the ground as I lean my weight forward
Their digital eyes watch as I fall downward

A final inception, it calls through the air
I pray as I'm falling, the power is there
I pray as I'm falling, the power is there

I'm not who I was (Who I was)
And I wish I was a better man but I am who I am (Who I am)
I crawl the from the dust (From the dust)
And I've never seemed to understand but this is who I am (Who I am)
