Imagine you are a puzzle, and pieces of you are falling off and running away and hiding in dark places.

07. Hell Inside
The mask I hold on my face, it can't hide everything
He pulled the trigger in me and sent me tumbling
Now my breath turns to steam before my very eyes
My rage goes up in a blaze before I realize
I've lost control of the hell that burns inside of me
The demons under my skin are finally breaking free
I try to wrestle them down, but they bite at my heart
I've got to keep my mind from falling apart
I don't know how long I can hold myself together for you
Everyday my veins are churning
A ticking time bomb waiting to explode
I can't escape this constant yearning
Or the wrath these feelings will unload
Your compassionate words are like the key to me
To keep the animal locked up so that no one sees
I tried starving the beast to make it waste away
Instead it grows stronger in my day by day
There is someone to blame for my insanity
It doesn't change my fate in this reality
My god I've tried to move on, to change my destiny
But I cannot escape this hell inside of me
I don't know how long I can hold myself together for you
I think it was a mistake
To bring you into my fate
Between the layers of love
I try to bury the hate
But every step that we take
I know I'm closer to breaking
So much is at stake
Our love is only sedation
I don't want to bring you down into my shame
I'm a restless soul without reprieve
I don't have a way to break the devil's chains
Not even your love can save me
The mask I hold on my face, it can't hide everything
He pulled the trigger in me and sent me tumbling
Now my breath turns to steam before my very eyes
My rage goes up in a blaze before I realize
I've lost control of the hell that burns inside of me
The demons under my skin are finally breaking free
I try to wrestle them down, but they bite at my heart
I've got to keep my mind from falling apart
I don't know how long I can hold myself together for you
Everyday my veins are churning
A ticking time bomb waiting to explode
I can't escape this constant yearning
Or the wrath these feelings will unload
Your compassionate words are like the key to me
To keep the animal locked up so that no one sees
I tried starving the beast to make it waste away
Instead it grows stronger in my day by day
There is someone to blame for my insanity
It doesn't change my fate in this reality
My god I've tried to move on, to change my destiny
But I cannot escape this hell inside of me
I don't know how long I can hold myself together for you
I think it was a mistake
To bring you into my fate
Between the layers of love
I try to bury the hate
But every step that we take
I know I'm closer to breaking
So much is at stake
Our love is only sedation
I don't want to bring you down into my shame
I'm a restless soul without reprieve
I don't have a way to break the devil's chains
Not even your love can save me
