Song lyrics
Hard news, taken harder, don't look to me
Disappointed, we don't agree, I don't need your praise
(Don't look my way for help, from the beginning you came to me)
Never asked you to like me, I don't want your praise
(Won't play your games)
Look down on me, spit in my face
You're nothing to me...not to me

Darkened eyes you'll see
There is no hope, no saviour in me
(Don't look this way, don't breathe this way, don't stare this way, anymore)
Learned from years gone by
No one will care what happens to me
(Don't look this way, don't breathe this way, don't stare this way, anymore)

My presence won't be ignored, you're not to tell
Don't walk in my direction, turn the other way
(Don't look my way for help, from the beginning you came to me)
Asking questions, predetermined answers
You won't find them here (Don't want your opinion)
And I don't want you, I won't let you think
Compromise is near, cause it's not near

Darkened eyes you'll see
There is no hope, no saviour in me
(Don't look this way, don't breathe this way, don't stare this way, anymore)
Learned from years gone by
No one will care what happens to me
(Don't look this way, don't breathe this way, don't stare this way, anymore)

I'm alone in here
No more feelings
Killed my fears
Don't ask
You'll never know
You're left behind
And I'll be exposed

Far away, you keep on trying
Holding me down, picking away
Trying to distance my life
I'm one in the crowd
One with the answer
One that could change your mind

It's not true, I don't need you
Don't waste your time, and don't waste mine
I'm not your friend, I won't soothe your soul
And in the end you're all dead to me

The first time I heard this song was at night, in bed while I was trying to get a good night's sleep.....needless to say it scared the fuck outta me.

It's a good song ( ) but I'm still waiting for A7X to come up with something original. Everything so far reminds me too much of Pantera...

the song, the lyrics, the drums, the music, they just go together ALL so well. seems as if they've inherited the skills of the greatest's, and have learned to mix them together my favorite song by far.

^_^ This is my favorite song on 'Waking The Fallen'. In fact, I'm listening to it right now. My favorite part is the beginning with the drums and stuff. I don't know how to explain it, but...The drums, the guitar, the whole is frickin' song is awesome...

^^;; Sorry, I'm rambling...

(^^ This is my first time posting)
