There's no turning back Everything is built up all around me My problems, restrictions Complications rule all my decisions It's a slippery slope leading to my end Show me the way out Give a grip again These afflictions which are all inside me Can't find direction No It's such pain We are desperate for solutions Where is the door that leads to redemption? Everything is dark Will I ever find my way out? These afflictions which are all inside me Can I be forgiven? You take what others have worked for You love it or not You want the burden of meaning within Lost This is for all those who struggle For all those who care To let your troubles define you Be the better man I'm held down by the weight of my selfish mistakes Buried under miles of gills Miles of gills You were the parasite and now you suck your teeth You are abomination Oh, oh I have watched myself change from the inside out Becoming what I swore I'd never be There's gotta be more to this There's gotta be more to this You take what others have worked for You love it or not You want the burden of meaning within Lost This is for all those who struggle For all those who care To let your troubles define you Be the better man Be the better man Be the better man Be the better man Be the better man Where do we go from here? Down this lonely road I've never felt so scared Out here on my own There's no turning back I have left my old self behind The demons are upon me but I won't be the victim God, will you wash the blood from these hands? I'll change my ways I'll be the better man
