Shadow Boxing

Do you see me do you see what I've become

I'm not the same beast I leave a scar on all I touch

You think you know me now is it better than I know myself

I know it hurts like hell admitting just how you've misjudged

All my life I've been told the same old

Don't step out don't test the mould

We know your kind yeah we know you

So much better than you know yourself

See the ones that won't engage me

Are the same trying to cage me

But I can't sit still and I won't be tamed

When the lights go out better know your enemy

'Cause I've spent a lifetime shadowboxing with death

And we'll dance with the devil till there's no songs left

So do you see me do you see what I've become

I'm not the same beast no I leave a scar on all I touch

You think you know me now is it better than I know myself

I know it hurts like hell admitting just how you've misjudged

You don't know me you cannot own me

The path I'm on don't fit the old me

I bear my soul as I keel evolving

And I chase this taste for blood

See I learned real young don't seek no gold

Trust no fool and you won't get sold

I never feared the dark no I just became it

When the lights go dead you better pray you're safe kid

'Cause I've spent a lifetime shadowboxing with death

And we'll dance with the devil till there's no songs left

I try to keep my cool and not let this hate win

I find this mask I wear can't keep the darkness in

The world you know was born to fade

We'll dance upon its grave

You don't know me you cannot hold me

You should've guessed that you can't control me

I raise my soul like a private army

And I steel myself for war

'Cause I leaned real young when you walk through hell

The devil can't buy what you won't sell

So I took my fear reshaped and aimed

'Cause when the night caves in no one will save you

So we'll dance with the devil till there's no songs left

I try to keep my cool and not let this hate win

I find this mask I wear can't keep the darkness in

This mask I wear can't keep the darkness in
