The end begins.
I can't escape
As it pulls me further into anesthesia.
Tear down my sense of conviction.
Corrupt my soul.
The end begins.
In my eyes.
In my heart.
I have laid upon a deadman's bed,
Only to fall into a trap of lies and seduction that rivals the greatest sense of love.
Play it back
Until the voice becomes just a sound.
Penetrate my mind with all these images of you.
I have given up an angel's kiss.
Only to break apart your path of trust and burn myself down.
Struggle to the end;
I scare myself.
I'd give it all to have it back.
I could have had it all in front of you all by myself.
Love in my eyes,
Lust in my heart.
I made it all up.
Lies, deceit empowers me,
So it ends.

    General CommentGreat song. Nothing better than rocking out to this when im angry or upset about something. Yelling along with it always seems to calm the nerves. Specially when your put through a similar situation. "Only to fall into a trap of lies and seduction that rivals the greatest sense of love"

    General CommentThis song is about the movie Session 9. It's very obvious just from the lyrics.

    General Commenti think its about how he thought this girl was ruining his life and how she makes him do watever she wants, but then once he doesn't have her anymore, he realizes that he wants her back because he doesnt feel right without her

    General Commentsooo awesome!
    everyone SCREAM!!! along with song and feel the intence emotion of it. youll know what i mean when you do it.

    I feel that this song is one of the best songs that Silverstein's ever made. maybe one of the best songs out there thats sings about self-destruction.
    awesome song! =]

    General Commenti get the image of a guy getting a message on his phone from his girl saying that she is cheating....
    at the beginning of the song, in my mind, i see him sitting there by his bed with the phone in his hands as if he had just heard the message. he feels destroyed. and he realizes that the relationship he was in, was nothing but lies. "play it back until the voice becomes just a sound, penetrate my mind with all these images of you" is him just listening to her message over and over and thinking things he wish he wouldn't. and finally it seems like he contemplates suicide?? maybe?
