Consumed Songtext
von Strike Back

I will shut you out if it′s the last thing I do
Cos I can see that I mean nothing to you
Life is nothing but pain, there's no end in sight
When you′re consumed by your anger and spite

Do you remember a time when we were only kids
Who could have ever known that we would end up like this

I would've made effort
I could've seen this through
I would′ve made the effort but the how, where and whys got the better of you


I tried to be the best that I could be
That was never enough now it′s plain to see
My mind began to wither and die
Crushed under the pressure of being around you all the time

Every word that we left unspoken
Weighs heavy now by back's been broken
Turn off the lights, close your eyes
Convince yourself you′re not living a lie

I know I'm only young but I′m dead on my feet
Mostly from the company I choose to keep

You've still got a few things to learn about the world
I won′t always be there to hold your hand

One day I hope you'll understand
