Beats slowly, beats fast

The heart that is in my chest

But the truth is that there is no heart

Instead I have a big black hole left

The loneliness eats my body and mind

I can only hope I'd stay longer alive

But I get too tired of this prolonged fight

I don't know whether to give up or try to survive

No matter where I go

No matter what I do

I feel that emptiness inside

And nothing fills that big black hole

I'm in pain, I'm in pain

Can't you feel it in your soul?

But despite that I'll never lose faith

I'll never lose hope

The cold and the heat

These are the only things I feel

Without my heart I've no emotions

It's like I'm fully made from steel

The loneliness eats my body and mind

I can only hope I'd stay longer alive

But I get too tired of this prolonged fight

I don't know whether to give up or try to survive

No matter where I go

No matter what I do

I feel that emptiness inside

And nothing fills that big black hole

I'm in pain, I'm in pain

Can't you feel it in your soul?

But despite that, I'll never lose faith

I'll never lose hope

The end, the end

This is what my soul screams

The suffering and pain

At least for once should be healed

I wanna feel the light; I wanna touch my dream

But it's so hard to take off my shield

It's so hard to take off my shield

To take off my shield

To take off my shield

Off my shield...

No matter where I go

No matter what I do

I feel that emptiness inside

And nothing fills that big black hole

I'm in pain, I'm in pain

Can't you feel it in your soul?

But despite that, I'll never lose faith

I'll never lose hope

Beats slowly, beats fast

The heart that is in my chest
