I am shadowed by what seems to be the end 
 Aware my hopes will only pretend 
 To silence the voices I hear calling me 
 And forcing me to face the truths to be 
    I refuse to accept my fate and not believe 
 There's no escape - I'm desperate to survive   
 For I'm alone and a captive of my past 
 Solitude my penance is cast 
 For vicious memories, taunt my piece of mind 
 I feel helpless and despair, a victim of time   
 I just have to stay alive - there's nowhere to run 
 Nowhere to hide - I'm desperate to survive 
 Will time stand still for me - I'm desperate to survive   
 I can't take this torment 
 I can't take the thought I have to stay 
 Forever inside my terror 
 There lives all the sins I must repay 
 I'm trapped by suffering, so tragic 
 I can't take this pain 
 So lost in my sorrow, so endless 
 It's too hard to maintain   
 I'm desperate to survive - will time 
 Stand still for me - I'm desperate to survive
