Awaking with a start
When the shades are opened
The sound of my heart
Beating and not yet broken
There are lines going into
My veins feeding me the drugs
What have I been through
And what's going into my blood?

Well mama I tried
I tried so very hard to stay
To stay away from the void
Yes, mama I tried
I tried each and every day
But some things I can't avoid
AND MAYBE IT'S MY FATE TO BE DESTROYED...

Thinking back it's blurry
Tell me what have they done?
I hear footsteps scurry
Sounds like someone on the run
I can't move I'm sedated
And there are shapes in the shadows
Out of reach they're seated
Just beyond the light from the windows

Well mama I tried
I tried so very hard to stay
To stay away from the void
Yes, mama I tried
I tried each and every day
But some things I can't avoid
AND I GUESS IT'S MY FATE TO BE DESTROYED...

Bridge

It's my fate!
It's my time to be destroyed
No point in fighting this
When you stare into the void
It's my fate!
Don't know why it's taken so long
It's my time, I'm ready for this
Why does it feel so wrong?

Everything is fading now
I can't see the ones I love
Even the footsteps are lost
To darkness's eternal shove
I try to speak, I try to cry
To let them know I'm still alive
The plug is pulled, I grow cold
Now I know why I was told...........

Well mama I tried
I tried so very hard to stay
To stay away from the void
Yes, mama I tried
I tried each and every day
But some things I can't avoid
AND I GUESS IT'S MY FATE TO BE DESTROYED...
