We hold an ideal

Of the way life's supposed to be

Following step by step

To the fall

Where is the choice

When you leave it to fate

Losing my grip is this the end

This is hell on earth

I can hear the masses calling

Screams flooding my ears

As chaos surrounds me

I beg for this to stop

I am stuck in a moment

Pushed to the point of no return

From this hell on earth

I hear them calling

I hear my name

We all know things aren't the same

As yesterday (yesterday)

Take me away from the horror

Take me away

Gasping for air

Drowning in their own worlds

From up here I hear them calling

We hold an ideal

Of the way life's supposed to be

Following step by step

I can see the fall

Wake up

This is the end of the road

Help me breathe

It's crowded in here

Our days are numbered

So let's make this count

The sun is rising

And I can barely breathe

In the end I swear

I am in control

I am in control

You're only cheating yourself

But your words defile us all

I am not a martyr

I was a victim

I am not a martyr

I am free from the ideal
