[Verse 1] Though I never thought it'd come down to this, why do we go through so much pain just to exist? I'm making a list, no one caring what it is The mirror showing a stranger, someone I don't know How it came down to this, no one knows [Verse 2] Every tick-tock from the clock whispers my name, telling me that I should be in so much shame All of my plans deteriorating Life's become so disorientating Truths and lies, nothing's pure black and white [Pre-chorus] Hating you, hating me It's not the way to be So why is it so goddamn hard to change? [Chorus] All I ever wanted was someone to love, someone to hold me when nights get lonely So why, oh God why, does no one see that the emptiness coming from my heart is not from me? I'm tired of everyone pretending to see how so much better they are than me So, stop what you're doing and take a good look If you don't like the true me I'll be that insufferable villain in your damn book [Verse 3] "Oh, fuck it..." You're the same as me Baby, can't you see Sharing the same motivation and thoughts as me You think it's outrageous? Just you wait Give it a couple years and we'll share the same fate [muffled, like on a radio] They make you in their image Never caring to set you free So, take your own freedom, dancing on the burnt remains of bridges never meant to be [normal] Hahahaaha Go on, take your own freedom my child Those bridges were already burned Sitting by the large bonfire of their misconceptions of you "Yes, of you" Isn't life just great with all its twists and turns [Pre-chorus] Hating you, hating me It's not the way to be So why is it so goddamn hard to change? [Chorus] All I ever wanted was someone to love, someone to hold me when nights get lonely So why, oh God why, does no one see that the emptiness coming from my heart is not from me? I'm tired of everyone pretending to see how so much better they are than me So, stop what you're doing and take a good look If you don't like the true me I'll be that insufferable villain in your damn book [Bridge] Yeah, together we'll be those insufferable villains in your book Depicting your story as one of grace while we fall into ruin to save your face Steering the story to have a good ending That's the villain's job, is it not? "Hell is empty, and all the devils are here" That so much is true Take a good look around you with eyes full of fear But it's way easier to give blame than take it yourself So we'll play the villains, you play the hero Let's see how this story ends [Pre-chorus] Hating you, hating me It's not the way to be So why is it so goddamn hard to change? [Chorus] All I ever wanted was someone to love, someone to hold me when nights get lonely So why, oh God why, does no one see that the emptiness coming from my heart is not from me? I'm tired of everyone pretending to see how so much better they are than me So, stop what you're doing and take a good look If you don't like the true me I'll be that insufferable villain in your damn book

Strofa 1 I find myself in a night Writing with a frantic obsession, Like a madman chasing a dog. I forget myself, humiliated by memories, People talk, but I don’t listen. A cigarette in my hands, Vibrating on the keyboard of a cell phone. I don’t know if there is strength or weakness in this. Ritornello Devour everything you can love, Like a child with his sweets. Every moment is timeless, Find beauty where you’ve never looked. Strofa 2 I wish I could shout to the world that I won, But I don’t know the meaning of victory. The future supports my every thought, As if it were the last. We live in a state where thought is free, But reality is a cage. Nothing will better translate, What I’m telling you now. Ritornello Devour everything you can love, Like a child with his sweets. Every moment is timeless, Find beauty where you’ve never looked. Bridge (Parlato o Cantato) Creativity is possessive, The assimilation phase is paranoia. My work is the truest part of me. My mask. My real life. Finale (Ritornello + Ad Lib) Devour everything you can love, Like a child with his sweets. Every moment is timeless, Find beauty where you’ve never looked. Like a madman chasing a dream.

[Verse] Walkin' down this road of sorrow and bitter ways Every step I take feels like I'm lost in a maze Heartbreak and misery dancin' Won't leave me alone All these blues and tears have found a place to call home [Verse] Midnight whispers haunt me under a silent sky Broken dreams and shattered love I can't even cry Pain has carved its name on the walls of my soul On this path of despair I've lost all control [Chorus] Heartbreak highway I'm travelin' slow Every mile is a memory Every shadow a ghost Pain and misery My companions My foes Heartbreak highway No end in sight goes [Verse] Empty bottles sing the song of my weary heart Every drop a reminder of love torn apart Fingers trace the scars that time refuses to heal In this lonesome journey Numbness is all I feel [Bridge] Night after night This blues stay the same Tangled in the web of love’s cruel game Now I walk this path with no one to blame Just me and my shadows Whisperin' my name [Chorus] Heartbreak highway I’m travelin' slow Every mile is a memory Every shadow a ghost Pain and misery My companions My foes Heartbreak highway No end in sight goes

[Verse] Steel ghosts haunting Streets are hollow Cold lights flicker No dreams to follow Concrete jungle claws at my soul City's grip tight Losing control [Verse 2] Brick and mortar Chains that bind Empty faces Nothing to find Grinding gears Drowning in noise Lifeless grey Losing my voice [Chorus] Breaking free Fields calling my name Leaving shadows Shedding this shame Countryside whispers Sweet embrace Sunrise kisses Life's warm face [Verse 3] Dust pathways Winds are speaking Silent hills My heart seeking Golden wheat sways Open wide Freedom found Nowhere to hide [Bridge] Skies stretch endless Feel the ease Breathing clean Every breeze Stars at night Clear as a bell Hell behind Now farewell [Chorus] Breaking free Fields calling my name Leaving shadows Shedding this shame Countryside whispers Sweet embrace Sunrise kisses Life's warm face

[Verse] Sympathy cuts like a blade Sharp words leave me betrayed In the shadows where we played Truth was lost and never stayed [Verse 2] Cold eyes A distant stare Promises fade They don't care In the dark We laid it bare Fleeting moments Rare as air [Chorus] Sympathy is a knife Dull and slight Cutting deep in the dead of night In the silence Wrong feels right Hurts the heart No end in sight [Verse 3] Mirrored lies Reflections torn In the whispers Love was worn Blazing trails where dreams are born Left alone To mourn and scorn [Bridge] Bleeding under false pretense Every wound A new defense In this game There's no suspense Sympathy makes no sense [Chorus] Sympathy is a knife Dull and slight Cutting deep in the dead of night In the silence Wrong feels right Hurts the heart No end in sight

I was a wreck when you walked through that door,Heart in pieces scattered on the floor. She left me cold, filled me with doubt, Made me believe love was just a way out. Trust was a ghost, hope was a game, Thought I’d never feel real love again. Then you came along with a different light, One look from you, and the world felt right You’re healing me, breaking down the walls, Turning the silence into something that calls. Where she left scars, you’re planting grace, In your arms, I’ve found a safe place. Piece by piece, you’re making me whole, Turning my cracks into something gold. You’re healing me, lifting the weight, Showing me love isn’t tied to hate. I’d buried my trust deep in the ground,She stole every piece that I’d once found.But you’ve been patient, steady and true,Mending the heart I’d given up to. With every word, every touch that you give,I’m learning again what it means to live.Where there was fear, now there’s belief,You’re proving love doesn’t come with grief. You’re healing me, breaking down the walls, Turning the silence into something that calls. Where she left scars, you’re planting grace, In your arms, I’ve found a safe place. Piece by piece, you’re making me whole, Turning my cracks into something gold. You’re healing me, lifting the weight, Showing me love isn’t tied to hate. You’ve got a way of making me see, Love doesn’t have to mean misery. You’re the strength that’s been missing so long, A safe place where my heart belongs. You’re healing me, breaking down the walls, Turning the silence into something that calls .Where she left scars, you’re planting grace, In your arms, I’ve found a safe place. Piece by piece, you’re making me whole, Turning my cracks into something gold. You’re healing me, lifting the weight, Showing me love isn’t tied to hate. In you, I’m finding my peace again, Not just a lover, you’re my best friend. I’m breathing free, learning to trust, Building a love that’s more than just us

[Verse] Took my heart and broke it twice Left me hanging cold as ice Even shadows seem to cry When you said your last goodbye [Verse 2] Mirror's cracked reflects my pain Echoes of a lost refrain Every step a tragic play Words you spoke won't fade away [Chorus] Shattered pieces hit the ground Love's a ghost that can't be found Haunted by your empty stare Everywhere I turn you're there [Verse 3] Memories like jagged glass Cut too deep no way to pass Silent screams fill empty rooms Living with these heavy dooms [Bridge] Time won't heal this aching wound Minutes hit like drumming doom Reaching out but no one's there Lost in love's cruel solitaire [Verse 4] Hope's a fire that lost its spark Cold as night devoid of dark Faces change but pain remains Haunted by your love's remains

Feeling the thrill, a card in hand, Bet it all, hoping to stand, Luck's a fickle, treacherous game, In the end, the outcome's the same. The cards are dealt, fortunes fade, A losing hand, a price paid, In the shadows of a gambler's plight, The rock of luck, turns black as night.

[Verse] Faded dreams behind the wall Whispers lost in endless call Broken light on empty streets Shadowed souls where fate retreats [Verse 2] Distant fires in the night Lonely cries without a fight Ashes fall from open sky Silent stars just passing by [Chorus] Waking up in shattered haze Chasing ghosts in twisted maze Voices echo in my mind Truth is something hard to find [Verse 3] River flows with tainted blood Concrete greys through endless flood Hearts are cold like winter's breath Running fast from certain death [Bridge] Through the storm we try to see What it means to just be free Stories lost in bitter pain Tangled up in rusted chain [Chorus] Waking up in shattered haze Chasing ghosts in twisted maze Voices echo in my mind Truth is something hard to find
