Madcraze - All Hail Lyrics

It's taken a year to realize that I will never get those five years back
My time away from home has shown me what sort of identity I truly lack
I've seen friends and family come and go as I dwelled in familiar space
On the day that it was left behind, all I felt was shame and disgrace

All I can do is walk these streets with hopeless and bewildered eyes
Memories and photos appear in the aftermath much to my surprise
This is the work of forces within, but at this point I don't care
I'd love to fix the past with what I know now, but I'm too far gone in this despair

All hail the castle that housed kings among men
I will revisit these memories time and again
All hail the castle in which queens chose to dwell
Alone and exposed, I am in hell

I moved to the city so I could get that bread
But instead, the ego got to my head
Woke up one day, rolled out of bed
And realized that my passion was dead
All I wanted was to be respected
But nobody likes you when you're a depressed kid
'Cuz I got a brain that was born defective
My mind's poisoned, it's super effective
So what do you when you're tired of hiding?
When you're broke and you're hungry with no one left to confide in?
The answer is simple, you swallow your pride and
Admit you got a problem, so as of writing
I'll be a Hatter again in a few days or less
I'm taking my life back from the throes of stress
Through the last year, onwards I have pressed
Before life was good, it had to be a mess

After all this time, after all this pain
This one constant remains
After all this time, after all this pain
This one constant remains

I KNOW WHO I AM

All hail the castle that housed kings among men
I will revisit these memories time and again
All hail the castle in which queens chose to dwell
Alone and exposed, I am in hell
