The Rise

It took a while but it drove me senseless
Now they say I’m non compos mentis
Little wonder I’m still here at all
Staring out from the guilt free on the wall
It’s what happens when you mess with matches
Everything’s reduced to ashes
Now I’m lost and brokenhearted
My dreams had barely started
You’re never gonna drive those demons
Out of my mind
I know you’ve gone, but you’re never
Out of my mind
Still see those pictures of hell, sends me
Out of my mind
My memory’s photographic
Some of those images stopped the traffic
It wasn’t me, it wasn’t you
Feel that it’s nothing new
I’m not guilty, but I’m conscious
A bad net weight on my conscience
Another thing I have to mention
Sadly there’s no redemption
You’re never gonna drive those demons
Out of my mind
I know you’ve gone, but you’re never
Out of my mind
Still see those pictures of hell, sends me
Out of my mind
I want a lonely life
I want a lonely life
You’re never gonna drive those demons
Out of my mind
I know you’ve gone, but you’re never
Out of my mind
Still see those pictures of hell, sends me
Out of my mind
