LYRICS
I can't forget your howling screams.
A winter night it was.
It seems I cannot bear to be alone.
How can you have a heart of stone?

Now would you save us?

I see the truth, it's crystal clear,
but in the end it feels unreal.
And in this silence, all I hear
is betrayal, 'cause you left me out of fear.

Dramatic words twist in my mind.
Why is it hard to leave behind
a life of agony and hate?
Why can't I decide my own fate?

You tried to break us.
You can't undo what's done.

I see the truth, it's crystal clear,
but in the end it feels unreal.
And in this silence, all I hear
is betrayal, 'cause you left me out of fear.

No time for tears —
I cried all these years.
My world was upside down,
just a burning ground.
You're nowhere to be found,
just a burning ground.
You cannot break me.

Just a burning, just a burning ground.

I see the truth, it's crystal clear,
but in the end it feels unreal.
And in this silence, all I hear
is betrayal, 'cause you left me out of fear.

Oh...

I see the truth, it's crystal clear,
but in the end it feels unreal.
And in this silence, all I hear
is betrayal, 'cause you left me out of fear,
out of fear.
