Downheart Lyrics

Heavy lies the weight of a scorned past

Wait a moment and this too shall pass

I'm in the way of myself lately

A heavy feeling in the chest

Sudden cardiac arrest

If there's life after death, is there a time to truly rest?

Has my soul become quiet now?

Does he fall asleep as I spiral down

As I spiral down

I block it out to ignore the sound; it's overbearing

Feet to the earth, head in the clouds; I'm disappearing

As more of life fades I forget who I was trying to be

A ghost in the shell, a flickering flame, a dying light

I'm in the way of myself lately

When Death caresses my skin, and my time has come to an end

When I'm at the gates should I pretend that I'm not guilty of my sins?

If I talk to the devil as a friend, does it mean that He won't let me in?

Will He be able to forgive me when I've been here time and time again?

I shut the door to keep it out; I swallowed the key

Feet to the earth, head in the clouds; I'm disappearing

As more of life fades, I forget who I was trying to be

A ghost in the shell, a flickering flame, a wanna be

I'm in the way of myself lately

So much empty space in time and I get lost trying to find my peace of mind

The end lingers just like a plague

And what comes next is a mystery

So much empty space in time; within that, I can't find the lines to end this song

As if this were the only part of me that will live on

Through power, there is strength

Internal power / Internal strength

Through power, there is strength

Internal power = Eternal strength
