The Amity Affliction - Not Without My Ghosts Album Lyrics

Show me your god

I am the boy who cried wolf
So when you find me I'll be rotted out
I'll be the king without a crown
I'll be the fool
The fool who you could live without

Show me your god
Does he come with a clip?
Are his teeth made of steel?
Is there death in his grip?

Throw me down the well
Throw me down the well
Let it swallow me whole
Pull me into hell
Throw me down the well
Let it swallow me whole

I see the wolves by the pack (wolves by the pack)
I count my blessings, blessings
By the knives in my back

Show me your god
Does he come with a clip?
Are his teeth made of steel?
Is there death in his grip?

Throw me down the well
Throw me down the well
Let it swallow me whole
Pull me into hell
Throw me down the well
Let it swallow me whole

If I had your god in my hands
I'd be dead tonight
I had glorious plans
If I had your god in my hands
I'd be dead tonight
Show me your god
Show me your god

If I had your god in my hands
I'd be dead tonight
I had glorious plans
If I had your god in my hands
I'd be dead tonight
Show me your god

Throw me down the well
Throw me down the well
Let it swallow me whole
Pull me into hell
Throw me down the well
Let it swallow me

Is it heaven up there?
Because it's hell down here (hell down here)
Is it heaven up there?
Because it's hell down here

I can feel you writhe
I feel the tears well in your eyes (your eyes)
Streaming down your face
You haven't seen the sun in days (you haven't)

Your breaking heart, your daily tears
I'm watching you in slow motion
A broken dream, a deathly calm
There's nothing on the horizon

I can feel your fears
And I can taste your tears
Is it heaven up there?
Because it's hell down here (hell down here)
I can see your sorrow
I hope there's no tomorrow
Is it heaven up there?
Because it's hell down here (hell down here)

Like a snake, I tire
The cold dark clouds
They steal my light (my light)
You're so distant now
A world away
I'm winding down

Your breaking heart, your daily tears
I'm watching you in slow motion
A broken dream, a deathly calm
There's nothing on the horizon

I can feel your fears
And I can taste your tears
Is it heaven up there?
Because it's hell down here (hell down here)
I can see your sorrow
I hope there's no tomorrow
Is it heaven up there?
Because it's hell down here (hell down here)

No more sunlight
No more dead ends
No more heartbreak
No more dead friends

No more sunlight
No more dead ends
No more heartbreak
No more dead friends

I can feel your fears
And I can taste your tears
Is it heaven up there?
Because it's hell down here (hell down here)
I can see your sorrow
I hope there's no tomorrow
Is it heaven up there?
Because it's hell down here

We don't live in a glass house
We don't die in a glass house

The glass around me began to crack
I can't let them in
No, I, I can't turn back
When darkness falls
I call out your name
I hope you know that you
Were never to blame

I've been living in a fog it seems
'Cause I don't feel alive
And I'm not in a dream
Fade away, fade away
I want to fade away

Sick of living in this misery
Don't want to be alive
I want eternal sleep
Fade away, fade away
I want to fade away

We don't live in a glass house
We don't die in a glass house

Are you the one who
Has held me down?
My own reflection screams
I start to drown

Worn down by each day
It's all the same
I hope you know that you
Were never to blame

I've been living in a fog it seems
'Cause I don't feel alive
And I'm not in a dream
Fade away, fade away
I want to fade away

Sick of living in this misery
Don't want to be alive
I want eternal sleep
Fade away, fade away
I want to fade away

I think if I disappeared tomorrow
The universe wouldn't really notice

Just let me fade away, fade away
Just let me fade away, fade away
Just let me fade away

I've been living in a fog it seems
'Cause I don't feel alive
And I'm not in a dream
Fade away, fade away
I want to fade away

Sick of living in this misery
Don't want to be alive
I want eternal sleep
Fade away, fade away
I want to fade away

I want to fade away
I want to fade away
I want to fade away

It haunts me
Does it haunt you too?
The size of the waiting field
They say sorrow's cold
But the sorrow will go
As long as you're waiting here

I am haunted
And I fear that
There is nothing to be done
They say you can
You can beat it
Beat the setting of the sun

But I am yet to find
A way to beat the pain

They say the pain will go
Or so I have been told
But I'm haunted here as I sit and forever wait
Between death and the setting sun
There's no light at the end
Just more darkness my friend
And I'm haunted here as I sit and forever wait
Between death and the setting sun

It haunts me
Does it haunt you too?
The way we all fall apart
I said sorrow's cold
You said tomorrow it goes
Then you left me in the dark

I am haunted
And I fear that
There is nothing to be done, to be done
They say you can
You can beat it
Beat the setting of the sun, setting of the sun

But I am yet to find
A way to beat the pain

They say the pain will go
Or so I have been told
But I'm haunted here as I sit and forever wait
Between death and the setting sun
There's no light at the end
Just more darkness my friend
And I'm haunted here as I sit and forever wait
Between death and the setting sun

Find me a way right out of here
That isn't just a loss of fear
Cave into pain, I never learn
I'm telling you
Your heaven is gone
Your heaven is gone

Find me a way right out of here
That isn't just a loss of fear
Cave into pain, I never learn
I'm telling you
Your heaven is gone

They say the pain will go
Or so I have been told
But I'm haunted here as I sit and forever wait
There's no light at the end (at the end)
Just more darkness my friend (darkness my friend)
And I'm haunted here as I sit and forever wait
Between death and the setting sun

Find me a way right out of here
That isn't just a loss of fear
Cave into pain, I never learn
I'm telling you
Your heaven is gone

I hear their voices in my head
I feel their sorrow in my chest
I've seen them pushed to the f*cking edge
I see the ghosts of my friends
I see the ghosts of my friends

If they can't make it out alive
Maybe I am too am meant to die
I am waiting for hell to take my soul
I am death, I am utter failure

And I can't make it out of here
Is this the end of everything?
I am, I am the noose, I am the knot
I am hate, I am your depression

I hear their voices in my head
I see the ghosts of my friends
I see the ghosts of my friends

They didn't make it out alive
And I'm just here waiting to die
I am the coward standing on the edge
Throw me out, I am utter failure

And I can't make it out of here
Is this the end of everything?
I am, I am the noose, I am the knot
I am hate, I am your depression

Dear god that don't exist
Fly me over oceans where my lover lives
Dear god that don't exist
Fly me over oceans where my lover lives
Dear god that don't exist
Fly me over oceans where my lover lives
Dear god that don't exist
I am death

I am death
Dear god that don't exist
Fly me over oceans where my lover lives
Dear god that don't exist
I am death

I hear their voices in my head
I feel their sorrow in my chest
I've seen them pushed to the f*cking edge
I see the ghosts of my friends
I see the ghosts of my friends

Dear god that don't exist
Fly me over oceans where my lover lives
Dear god that don't exist

You will not shake me
You will not break me

I'll make you fear me
Make you understand me
My way, the vile way
You have never faced rage like this
I'm here to end you
You mean nothing in my world
Not a thing to me
You are the enemy

I'll be the death of you (you're the enemy)
I'll be the death of you

As the rain keeps pouring
You'll be forever falling
To a hell of your making
As the rain keeps pouring
You're there forever calling
A god who's not listening
As the rain keeps pouring

You will not shake me
You will not break me

No god to save you
I'm here to erase you
My way, the vile way
You have never seen hate like this

You've never felt such hopelessness
I will annihilate, 'cause in the end
You are the enemy

I'll be the death of you (the last thing you'll see)
I'll be the death of you

As the rain keeps pouring
You'll be forever falling
To a hell of your making
As the rain keeps pouring
You're there forever calling
A god who's not listening
As the rain keeps pouring

I'll be the death of you (you're the enemy)
I'll be the death of you (the last thing you'll see)
I'll be the death of you (you're the enemy)
I'll be the death of you
The last thing you'll see

I am the one who sees through all your lies
I am the one with the heart of ice
I am the one who lives inside your mind
You are the one who will pay the price

As the rain keeps pouring
You'll be forever falling
To a hell of your making
As the rain keeps pouring
You're there forever calling
A god who's not listening
As the rain keeps pouring

Hide from the sun and the day yet to come
Be sleeping, I'll be sleeping
Hide from the sun, or my dreams are undone
Be leaving, I'll be leaving

Hide from everything, you picture the end
I'm sleepwalking instead, sleep's one step from death
Hide from the sun, yeah, keep sleepwalking
Keep masking the terror inside, sleepwalking

How long will I be sleeping?
Oh, be sleeping, I'll be sleeping
How long till I'll be leaving?
Oh, be leaving, I'll be leaving

Hide from the sun and the day yet to come
Be sleeping, I'll be leaving
I have come undone
Hide from the sun, yeah, keep sleepwalking
Keep masking the terror inside, sleepwalking

How long will I be sleeping?
Oh, be sleeping, I'll be sleeping
How long till I'll be leaving?
Oh, be leaving, I'll be leaving
Hide from the sun and the day yet to come
Be sleeping, I'll be leaving

You don't see a way through
I'm sleepwalking too
Let's paint our world blue

While we're here, can we ever be free?
Off to the stars for me, I just want to believe
While we're here, we'll never be free
Look at the stars with me, do you want to believe?
Keep sleepwalking, keep masking the terror inside
Terror inside (sleepwalking)

How long will I be sleeping?
Oh, be sleeping, I'll be sleeping
How long till I'll be leaving?
Oh, be leaving I'll be leaving

How long will I be sleeping?
Oh, be sleeping, I'll be sleeping
How long till I'll be leaving?
Oh, be leaving I'll be leaving

Don't come too close to me
Don't come too close to me

I don't want you too close to me
You know I'll just tear you down
Life made me a fortress of fear
And I don't want you around

Oh, oh, you're so f*cking close
Oh, oh, I'm begging you
Oh, oh, stop playing with fire (oh, oh)

I am so lost and lonely
Always destroying what I have
I am so lost and lonely
Drag those I love towards the edge

Don't come too close to me
Don't come too close to me

I always try to hide from it
I'm my own worst enemy
The darkness grows inside of me
Just stay away from me please

Oh, oh, you're so f*cking close
Oh, oh, I'm begging you
Oh, oh, stop playing with fire (oh, oh)

I am so lost and lonely
Always destroying what I have
I am so lost and lonely
Drag those I love towards the edge

I can't seem to exist like I'm really alive
So should I just end all of this?
Hide behind my mask where I'm already dead
And still, I can't just end it yet
I can't seem to exist like I'm really alive
So should I just end all of this?
I don't want to exist but I have to survive

For the ones I'd leave behind
For the ones I'd leave behind
For the ones I'd leave behind

Don't get too close to me
Don't come too close to me
Don't come too close to me
Don't come too close to me

I am so lost and lonely
Always destroying what I have
I am so lost and lonely
Drag those I love towards the edge

I am so lost and lonely
Always destroying what I have
I am so lost and lonely
Drag those I love towards the edge

I know when I go, the pain is over
I know when I go, the pain is over

I don't know if I can, can make it out alive
I don't know if I can take one more f*cking day
So if I go, I know the world around me heals
I know when I go, the pain is over
And only death is when you truly know yourself

Oh, oh, am I the god voice inside my own head?
Oh, oh, am I the voice that says you're better off dead?
Oh, oh, am I the god voice inside my own head?
Oh, oh, am I the voice that says you're better off dead? Dead

I know when I go, the pain is over
And I'm not sure right now if I can make it out
It's nearly been two years suppressing all my tears
Defined by all my pain buried under my fear
I know where you went the pain is over
And only death is when you truly know yourself

Oh, oh, am I the god voice inside my own head?
Oh, oh, am I the voice that says you're better off dead?
Oh, oh, am I the god voice inside my own head?
Oh, oh, am I the voice that says you're better off dead?

I can't be, I can't be who you want me to be
I can't be who you want me to be
I can't be, I can't be who you want me to be

Oh, oh, am I the god voice inside my own head?
Oh, oh, am I the voice that says you're better off dead?
Oh, oh, am I the god voice inside my own head?
Oh, oh, am I the voice that says you're better off dead?

Not without my ghosts
Wherever I may go
It's not without my ghosts

Their bodies drag behind me
Chained to both my wrists
No matter how I fight
I'm never done with it

I have to carry on
But not without my ghosts
I have to carry on
But not without my ghosts
Not without my ghosts

Wherever I may go (wherever I may go)
It's not without my ghosts (it's not without my ghosts)
A quiet daily war, no sign ahead of peace
Look alive for all my friends and try to hide the grief

I have to carry on
But not without my ghosts
I have to carry on
But not without my ghosts

One to carry sadness, one to carry fear (one to carry fear)
One to carry panic and one to carry tears (one to carry tears)
One for my depression and one who wants me dead (one who wants me dead)
One to hide my hollow heart and some I've never met

Not without my ghosts
Wherever I may go (wherever I may go)
It's not without my ghosts (it's not without my ghosts)
Wherever I may go (wherever I may go) (I have to carry on but not without my ghosts)
It's not without my ghosts (it's not without my ghosts) (I have to carry on but not without my ghosts)
Wherever I may go (wherever I may go) (I have to carry on but not without my ghosts)
It's not without my ghosts (it's not without my ghosts) (I have to carry on but not without my ghosts)
