EDIT: Re-uploaded a better-quality scan.

i need to see you step away from the edge
i've seen this coming and you're better off alive

well it's safe to say
that you were the one without a plan
and you missed the point
you put the blood on my hands

why aren't you trying to escape from the fires that i have made?
i won't be the one who kills you
oh you will find the murderer is

you built the walls that kept you alone
i torn them down just to watch you rebuild
you built this house to hide from everything you fear
i merely showed you how to tear the building down

why aren't you trying to escape from the fires that i have made?
because i can hear you scream from far away
and you can be so much more than this

but the foundation is weak
and this time these walls will come down
why don't you save all the trouble and pull yourself out and
take some gas and a match and burn it to the ground

watch the flames throughout
watch all your fears fall like ashes all around
just don't forget that you're the one who brought it down
you did this on your own
all i did was show you how

with your head pounding harder than your heart
and you feel like you're stuck where you are
when your lungs fill with smoke
and you know that you're heading towards the dark

when it seems like this scene never ends
then the least you can do is pretend
that the life you've been living is leading you out of the dark

why aren't you trying to escape from the fires that i have made?
now you can be free from everything that you fear that torn you apart
and i can hear you scream from far away
i can say that i brought you here
that i've done my deed
so i can finally go to sleep

now you can be free from every fear that you have
so i can finally go to sleep


In Fear and Faith - "Your World on Fire"

----------------------------------------------------------------

Cody, one of the singers from my most favorite band at the moment, In Fear and Faith.

I love this particular song. It sounds so aggressive, but really it's just about the narrator trying to tear down the walls a loved one built in the throes of despair. Even though you can try to show someone the way, they have to choose to take it themselves.



Anywho...yesh...check 'em out.
(And they do a cover of Gangsta Paradise and it is EPIC :XD:)


Btw, this was done in charcoal and prisma pencils, and took about 2 hours.
