"Downbeat" lyrics - THE GHOST INSIDE

Days can fade, and lives can slip away
Any song can be silenced
It's time that we start this over
I know what it's like to fall face down
We've all been there before
With no life in sight
When it feels like the world just gave up
With no strength to see it through
Raise a fist up to the sky
Scream it loud
"I'm not ready die."
A hymn for the hopeless
My song to the deaf
I learned to push past the pain
I've seen it before; it's never the same
Aim an ear to the heavens
Still waiting for a sign of life
I'm gonna build this wall from brick
Twice as thick, so you cannot tear it down
And then it rang in my head
"Love is what you make it
Some hands we have to fold
And the hardest lessons you will learn are the ones you've been told."
I'm face to face with death himself
I know this won't be the end of me, I just know it
You always will be my enemy. I control it
I know what it's like to fall face down
We've all been there before
With no life in sight
When it feels like the world just gave up
With no strength to see it through
Raise a fist up to the sky
Scream it loud
"I'm not ready die."
A hymn for the hopeless
My song to the deaf
I learned to push past the pain
I've seen it before; it's never the same
Aim an ear to the heavens
Still waiting for a sign of life
I'm gonna build this wall from brick
Twice as thick, so you cannot tear it down
Days can fade, and lives can slip away
Any song can be silenced
It's time that we start this over
