Cold Day Memory

Sevendust Cold Day Memory Lyrics
1.Splinter

In your space I feel lesser than human a slave
Pushed down with shame on my face
You're a god for an hour but what have you done
That gave you the right
(Gave you the right to kill me)
Cut out the splinter
(Cut me away)
Cut it out, cut it out

You think you're better than me

You think you kill me
(Cut out the splinter)
Last thing
(I will remember)
In the end you think you kill me
(Cut out the splinter)
Go now
(Live in failure)
Your faith was spoken
(Now you mean nothing)

What a waste of my time as I follow the dead
Your fake ass celebrity cred
So now what's the leader doing
What have you done
You got no more fight
(Gave you the right to kill me)
Cut out the splinter
(Cut me away)
Cut it out, Cut it out

You think you kill me
(Cut out the splinter)
Last thing
(I will remember)
In the end you think you kill me
(Cut out the splinter)
Go now
(Live in failure)
Your faith was spoken
(Now you mean nothing)

Am I the splinter in your life?
Cut me away
Cut me away
Cut

You think you kill me
(Cut out the splinter)
Last thing
(I will remember)
In the end you think you kill me
(Cut out the splinter)
Go now
(Live in failure)
Your faith was spoken
(Now you mean nothing)
(Nothing)


2.Forever Dead

I feel my life has been foresaken
And I've been taken by the storm, for way too long
I sit here locked inside a hell that only you and I could live
Another war so far from grace
So wipe that smile off your face
(Stop coming at me, coming at me)

So go now, find yourself
You're selfish, condescending
You and me are now forever (forever)
So go play God in someone else's life
Cause you and me are now forever (forever dead!)

I wear your burden like a stone it drags me down I'm sinking
I pray they're wrong but lie they're alone (so broken)
Coming at me, coming at me, coming at me
(stop coming at me, coming at me)

So go now, find yourself
You're selfish, condescending
You and me are now forever (forever)
So go play God in someone else's life
Cause you and me are now forever (forever dead!)

So go now, find yourself
You're selfish, condescending
You and me are now forever

So go now, find yourself
You're selfish, condescending
You and me are now forever (forever)
So go play God in someone else's life
YOU AND ME ARE NOW FOREVER! (forever!)
FOREVER DEAD! FOREVER DEAD! (FOREVER!)
FOREVER DEAD! FOREVER DEAD! (FOREVER!)
FOREVER DEAD!
FOREVER!


3.Unraveling

I need an answer
Some way to understand
This feels so convincing
And a little outta hand

So tell me one thing
Who gave you all those scars
That took away your innocence
You push away with everything you are

I can't take this anymore
I'm tired of breaking
I'm tired of breaking

I want the world to see
You sold a broken dream
You were not there for me
I was Unraveling

All that we never knew
That could have been me and you
But you took everything
Now we're just here Unraveling

So here we are now
Break what's already broken
I guess I coulda seen this coming
If you'd been around
Lets tear the past wide open

I can't take this anymore
I'm tired of breaking
I'm tired of breaking

I want the world to see
You sold a broken dream
You were not there for me
I was Unraveling

All that we never knew
That could have been me and you
But you took everything
Now we're just here Unraveling

What have we become
The hopeless tonight and I think its over
We hope to find the truth still breathing
Can we survive the low

I want the world to see
You sold a broken dream
You were not there for me
I was Unraveling

I want the world to see
You sold a broken dream
You were not there for me
I was Unraveling

All that we never knew
That could have been me and you
But you took everything
Now we're just here Unraveling


4.Last Breath

So do I really believe?
Caught up and twisted
She's hardly completed
Now I'm out of time
And full of hate
(If nothing will change you)
Then nothing will ever change
Cuz all that I need
From you now
You can't see

Take my last breath
To say this
This broken world
Left me hopeless
Everytime I pray
But Nothing would change
I'll take my last breath now
I hope I find my way

What else in this world
Could happen to me?
Always convicted
You're simply defeated
It kills me that I've never found
That saving grace
That gave you the shelter
You needed for one more day
Cuz all that I need
From you now
You can't see

Take my last breath
To say this
This broken world
Left me hopeless
Everytime I pray
But Nothing would change
I'll take my last breath now
I hope I find my way

Call it madness
Call it tragic
Have you heard enough?

Take my last breath
Take my last breath
Take my last breath
Take my last breath

Take my last breath
To say this
This broken world
Left me hopeless
Every time I pray
But Nothing would change
I'll take my last breath now
I hope I find my way


5.Karma

I may have made some mistakes
That cost me more than my pride
But somewhere along the way
That part of me finally died
That part of me never tried
Some part of me still alive

Here in the bed that I made
Can't sleep cause my conscience
Keeps me awake
It keeps me awake
(It's coming. No running away)

Yeah, how bittersweet is karma
Now you've done it you own it
Know that it's coming
Don't change for nothing
We all feel karma now

The clock never stops to breathe
The tears in the well I cause
Help me to see
There's no better place to be
Than right where you are
Until you go through the fall
Go through the fall

(It's coming, no running away)
Yeah, how bittersweet is karma
Now you've done it you own it
Know that it's coming but
Don't change for nothing
We all feel karma now

Yeah, how bittersweet is karma
Now you've done it you own it
Know that it's coming
Don't change for nothing
We all feel karma now

Where do you think you can go?
Asking for help and the answer is no
What do you do when the...
(What do you think you can do?)

Yeah my karma's here it seems
Always a step behind me

Yeah, how bittersweet is karma
Now you've done it you own it
Know that it's coming
Don't change for nothing
We all feel karma now (Now)

Yeah, how bittersweet is karma
Now you've done it you own it
Know that it's coming
Don't change for nothing
We all feel karma
All feel karma now


6.Ride Insane

Uncertain I ride to calm myself
I'm searchin' for something
That gets me out of this place
I need this
Like the Devil needs Jesus
Like a war needs treason
I've been through hell for a reason
(I see my life just slipping away)

Hey, I'm gonna ride insane
And at the moment life starts to burn
I'm gonna ride this sunset to the grave

Ticking faster, I can see the end
I'm reaching out - to pull myself
Up to see again
I need this
Like an angel that's bleeding
(Right now)
I hear the Devil screaming
We go through hell for a reason
(I see my life just slippin away)

Hey, I'm gonna ride insane
And at the moment life starts to burn
I'm gonna ride this sunset to the grave

Hey, I'm gonna ride insane
And at the moment life starts to burn
I'm gonna ride this sunset to the grave

(What's) the meaning
(Try) to understand
(Why) the feeling's stuck inside of me
(What's) the meaning of
(Try) Trying to understand
(Why) It's always up in lies
Lies! Lies! Lies!

Hey, I'm gonna ride insane
And at the moment life starts to burn
I'm gonna ride this sunset to the grave

Hey, I'm gonna ride insane
And at the moment life starts to burn
I'm gonna ride this sunset to the grave
Why?! Why?! Why?! Lies!


7.Confessions (Without Faith)

I see the magic taken out
Of a dream that kept
Me young and trusted
Singled out and dazed
What else can you do for me
To keep me standing
Every day's a new confession
Vulnerable, aren't we all?

Without faith
We go on til it's over
You know the world
Doesn't always love you
But you never let that define you
Just have faith, we'll go on
We'll get closer
To everyone whoever tried
To hate you, say goodbye
It was nice to know you

I've become so cynical
Tell me now how can
I hear the voice of reason
You're so beautiful
What else can you do for me?
To keep me grounded
Everyone's a new possession
Vulnerable aren't we all?

Without faith
We go on til it's over
You know the world
Doesn't always love you
But you never let that define you
Just have faith, we'll go on
We'll get closer
To everyone whoever tried
To hate you, say goodbye
It was nice to know you
It was nice to know you
It was nice to know you

Without faith
We go on til it's over
You know the world
Doesn't always love you
But you never let that define you
Just have faith, we'll go on
We'll get closer
To everyone whoever tried
To hate you, say goodbye
It was nice to know you

Without faith
We go on til it's over
You know the world
Doesn't always love you
But you never let that define you
We'll break down, get back up
We'll get closer
To everyone whoever tried
To hate you, say goodbye
It was nice to know you
Nice to you.


8.Nowhere

Is this the life you made
The kind of life you fake
Is there a point we break?
Or do we sing that same old song
And hope they play along (We follow)

We're well on our way now to nowhere
(To nowhere)
We're so far away from getting somewhere
(From where getting somewhere)

Please stop the broken record
Your worthless effort
That makes you feel like God
So play that song
And watch it all go wrong
(Where do we search to find the honesty
In a world so fucked up and bleeding)
Knowing we will follow

We're well on our way now to nowhere
(To nowhere)
We're so far away from getting somewhere
Close to anything at all

We're well on our way now to nowhere
(On our way)
We're so far away from getting somewhere
(From where getting somewhere)

We're well on our way now to nowhere
(To nowhere)
We're so far away from getting somewhere
Close to anything at all


9.Here And Now

Send somebody, somebody soon
I'm feeling tired
All torn up and nobody knew
I'm thinkin someone needs to pray
Forgive me for the wrong I've done
But no one here is safe now

So far down, can you tell me if I'm counted out
(You know that now, you know)
That in the end, there's nothing left but here and now
(You know that now)
I'm here and now

Waking up to nobody home
I'm feeling tired
Sickened from my constant disease
Will someone have the guts to say
I'll never right the wrong I've done
If all you do is blame me anyway

So far down, can you tell me if I'm counted out
(You know that now, you know)
That in the end, there's nothing left but here and now
(You know that now)
I'm here and now

Send somebody, somebody soon
I'm feeling tired
All torn up and nobody knew
Are you...

So far down, can you tell me if I'm counted out
(You know that now, you know)
In the end, there's nothing left but here and now
(You know that now)
I'm here and now
Here and now
(Here and now)
Here and now
I'm here and now


10.The End Is Coming

I see the last parade unfold
I try to understand (the meaning of it all)
If silence becomes us
Then who will save us from the fall
It's coming for us all
(Now try to run)

(The end is coming)
So run, keep running
(The end is coming)
No more time to save ourselves
(The end is coming)
Yeah we became the enemy
(The end is coming)
Your world is burning-
The end is coming

I see the cruel charade
As bright as the sun
I try to find my faith
But all it does is run away
If heaven refused us
Then who will listen to our call
When it all begins to fall
(Now try and run)

(The end is coming)
So run, keep running
(The end is coming)
No more time to save ourselves
(The end is coming)
Yeah we became the enemy
(The end is coming)
Your world is burning-
The end is coming

Define security, define security
Define security, define security

So I keep running
Theres no time to save ourselves
No more time to save ourselves

(The end is coming)
So run, keep running
(The end is coming)
No more time to save ourselves
(The end is coming)
Yeah we became the enemy
(The end is coming)
Your world keeps burning away-
The end is coming (The end is coming )
Your world keeps burning away-
The end is coming (The end is coming)
Your world is burning-
The end is coming down


11.Better Place

Hold on we try to live a dream
We lose the fight again
I take the promise I believe
And keep it close til the end
(Collide) I'll start a war inside
(Now stop) Drop and cover me
My sense of peace is burning
Shutting down, I'm falling down
(I can't believe it's happening to me)

Can I give it all way
Just to get back to that better place
That better place today
And I give everything away
Just to get back to that better place
That better place today

Holding on - I suffer like a fiend
And try and face the day
I gotta say I'm a little relieved
To see you stay til the end
(I try) I took the war inside
(Then I) And pushed it out of me
My sense of peace is burning
Open now - I'm not falling out
(I can't believe this is happening to me)

Can I give it all way
Just to get back to that better place
That better place today
And I give everything away
Just to get back to that better place
That better place today

(Now stop)
(I try)

Can I give it all way
Just to get back to that better place
That better place today
And I give everything away
Just to get back to that better place
That better place today

And now it all remains the same
Til I get back to that better place today
That better place today


12.Strong Arm Broken

The stare that cuts through me
Burning a hole in me
Giving the answers I've been looking for
Your new found love
For kicking me when I'm down
Has given me the hate to
Finally let you know
I don't believe anything you ever told me-
You lost your soul
Take another chance?-
It's the last time you'll fuck me

Strong arm broken (broken)
There will be no words spoken
Speaking Nothing
Strong arm broken (Strong arm broken)
Strong arm broken

You sold out instantly
Killing my sympathy
Biting the hand that fed
The dog so long
That black heart hiding
Behind your hollow eyes
Will never save you
From the place you're headed for
I can't believe that I ever let you hurt me-
You lost control
Time to say goodbye
It's the last time you'll fuck me

Strong arm broken (broken)
There will be no words spoken
Speaking Nothing
Strong arm broken (Strong arm broken)
Strong arm broken

Strong arm broken (broken)
There will be no words spoken
Speaking Nothing
Strong arm broken (Strong arm broken)
Strong arm broken
