It's frightening 
How you can see the changes happening 
When they move so fast 
And lightning 
Except the odds are growing 
These lonely times will strike me twice 
The screams of a thousand voices 
Are whispers inside my head 
The echoes of self defense 

So how many times will it take 
To cover up the past mistakes 
And hide behind a crying you face of shame 
And how many nights will I hide 
And blink under the blackened skies 
I've cursed out so many times 

Its biting 
When the cold wind blows through weathered eyes 
And blistered skin 
It's quiet now 
It's like the calm before the raging violence of the storm begins 
And when this comes crashing down 
I'll fall harder than before 
I'll start this all over now 

So how many times will it take 
To cover up the past mistakes 
And hide behind a crying face of shame 
And how many nights will I hide 
And blink under the blackened skies 
I've cursed out so many times before 

I'll beg for the ending or just for forgiveness 
I'll wait in the shadows of a battle I'm close to losing 

So how many times will it take 
To cover up this smiling face of silence 
This face of shame 
And how many nights will I hide 
And blink under the blackened skies 
I've cursed out so many times before
