Dying to feel alive At what expense? I'll suffer alone For nothing again So far gone, out of touch
Trapped in mediocrity Losing sight of everything around me How much longer can I ignore All I should be fighting for
I need to get away Save this all for another day Something’s always chasing me But I keep letting it go It's all I've ever known
Choosing a world, that keeps me safe All that I love, will be the death of me
One more night I'm trapped inside The lying twisted masochistic depths of my mind No control, no end in sight My sanity's gone with my will to fight
The incessant scream of unrest The taste of hopelessness down to my chest If I make it through this, who's to say That next time won't be exactly the same
I need to get away Save this all for another day Something’s always chasing me But I keep letting it go Screaming for, help out of this hole God I'm in too deep again It’s all I’ve ever known
This is all I've ever known This is all I've ever known
I need to get away Save this all for another day Something’s always chasing me But I keep letting it go Screaming for, help out of this hole God I'm in too deep again It’s all I’ve ever, all I've ever Known

I look at you like you're less broken Like I'm the one who's fucked (fucked) Sinking deep in shame and envy Always feel so stuck
Constant pain, running away Ignoring signs, seals my fate Victimized, can't be helped Idolize everyone else When will I learn My world is collapsing But I keep repeating All that leads me back to misery
Another day, the poison seeps into my veins I could be okay, but I've chosen pain
The thoughts, race in, I can't make them stop (I can't make them stop) Consume, my heart, tear my life apart
I can't make it stop Please just shut it up I can't, make it stop When will I feel like I'm enough
Life takes so long What made me so impatient I'm shaking from the thought Of ever getting what I want
Oh No confidence, no vision, no drive No hope, no purpose, Worthless life
Killing time, justifies All I waste but can't face why Push it back, pray to forget How long can I fake my way through life before my spirit dies
Boundless pressure, crushing lungs All my pain I can't outrun
Bend me break me no one hates me as much as I hate myself Devil speaking in my ear, burning me in my own hell Wake up to this nightmare never ever fucking ends The thief of joy laughs at me, tortures me again
Never forgive what I did stay inside Of my mind where all my fears will come to life (fuck) I'll never get, better again, damage is done, I won't become, Anything more than what I always wanted to Run, far from
All the damage done, and every battle lost It never ends, but my time will come
The thoughts, race in, I can't make them stop (I can't make them stop) Consume, my heart, tear my life apart I've come, so far, but so far from enough It breaks, my will, tear my life apart Tear my life apartBeaten Soul (Guitar Playthrough)Distance From Reality2024-01-17 | Follow us: instagram.com/distancefromrealityny facebook.com/distancefromreality
LYRICS: Will there be anyone to witness my last breath When all I put into this world will be deemed meaningless I’ve done my best I’m giving up
Misery seize me, leave not a trace My soul longs for the darkness’ cold embrace Paralyzed, a hostage in my wake I’ve done my best it’s not enough, I've done my best I'm giving up
Everything is worthless when everything’s in vein Self-fulfilling sabotaging every chance I had to make a change An avalanche of panic from the smallest push Unstoppable momentum till I’m buried premature
What kind of life Demands eternal fight Just to thrash inches from drowning, miles from the light
Only so long Until my will's again undone Again undone
Will there be anyone to witness my last breath When all I've put into this world will be deemed meaningless
A hollow shell of a beaten soul, begging for the end I've done my best it's not enough, all that's left is giving up
Through the midst of hell, I stop and breathe in slow Like every one before it just a fleeting moment of hope
I curse my god damn lack of courage like that's how I'll cure my illness There’s no way to stop it I’m consumed by every hindrance
My world’s collapsing, but I’ll keep going ‘Cause chaos is all I know Soon I’ll have nothing to show Am I worthy in this fucking world?
My smile a facade My love is not enough The only I'll get back is at the final alter
Eternally empty How will I choose to go Lifeless, rotting, quietly awaiting the end
Will there be anyone to witness my last breath When all I've put into this world will be deemed meaningless Hollow shell of a beaten soul, begging for the end I've done my best it's not enough, all that's left is giving up

LYRICS: Can't control my body Heart races out of my chest My hell manifests When will I feel normal again?
Breath growing shallow, cannot think clear (I just wanna feel normal again) Coming to life, all of my worst fears
I'm so sick of this every day Trapped in my fears, I regress to where there's no escape Blindly accept the illusion of control I ignore all the warnings and fall victim to another perfect
Self sabotage Never enough Self sabotage One more time
I haven't learned Don't think I ever will I'll never know How much until I break
Pull me from the depths (how can I change) Of my own hell (deep-seated beliefs) Pull me from the depths (hands around my neck) This eternal nightmare never ends (all in my head)
Distance me from my reality The spark gets siphoned away from me My mindful bliss, a dim light in the distance Dragged from the gallows never again to be seen
The demons come to haunt each day The shore's in sight but they're pulling me away The ship has sailed and I may drown before I get back home Their screeches won't let me be alone
Self sabotage Never enough Self sabotage One more time
LYRICS: Death is not an option Don't let it enter your head Just the thought is fucking poison Breaking your desire Killing you but not how you want
All the walls we built so high around us aren't made of gold Build them up until they're primed to plummet to the ground Crushed under the burden of the past I bear so close The more I dwell the tighter that I hold
Darkness surrounds me When there's no gleam of hope Darkness surrounds me Watch yourself transform
Become all you're searching for
I will sever ties Vengeance on my killing voice Claw my way and find the light Back out the lies
Reminisce on darker days Use them to fuel your strength Seek promise, clutch it tight Endure and break the confines
Accept resistance Embrace uncertainty Stop questioning the strife And leverage the friction to grow
I know it's worth it But I can't convince myself
Help me find some meaning When my world is only pain Memories replay again Blinding flickers of my destiny
So much goddamn resistance Paralyzed by the strings of dissonance As I came close I remembered why we live Not for pleasure but for all that we can give (All that we can give)
It won't come to this anymore Become all you're searching for
I will sever ties Vengeance on my killing voice Claw my way and find the light Black out the lies
I, will embrace resistance Rise, from the maladaptive Torment, from my inner voices Never let them win
I, will embrace resistance (I will sever ties) Rise, from the maladaptive (Vengeance on my killing voice) Torment, from my inner voices (Claw my way and find the light) Never let them win (Black out the lies)
All the walls we built so high around us aren't made of gold Build them up until they're primed to plummet to the ground Crushed under the burden of the past I bear so close The more I dwell the tighter that I hold
LYRICS: Oh The darkness rises to life In the form of thoughts that paralyze My demons love to entice Keep me blissfully blind
Holding on to what hurts me most Crave the feeling, I keep it close I'll never be any more than this Revolution of contrition
Can't go on, life this way It fucks me up in every way Bad decisions, self-regression As if I knew better, Can I ever break this never ending Pleasure chasing, digging deeper down
Chasing dopamine Lost the will to fight Believe my lies I feel so mindless
I hold this pain to my chest Like I'm nothing without it These thoughts, oh so desperate In the moment blind, every time
I can't stop it I need help
Endless cycle so fucked up I can't stop it I need help
Can't go on, life this way It fucks me up in every way Bad decisions, self-regression As if I knew better can I ever break this everlasting Pleasure chasing, digging deeper
Downward spiral, through another Night of torture Left to wonder Am I too far gone
Don't let me spiral again
I'm an addict I don't think that I can change I'm an addict doomed to live a life of pain I'm an addict I can't help myself I'm an addict I need help right nowDistance From Reality - Pull Harder on the Strings of Your Martyr (djent cover)Distance From Reality2021-03-13 | "Pull Harder on the Strings of Your Martyr" originally by Trivium.
LYRICS: Blinded by fantasies Designing misery Pride skews reality Projecting all on me Your insecurities you don’t want us to see
Fix your life, don't judge mine
Every time you speak you're poisoning the air we breathe Suffocating us with endless toxic energy I don't owe you anything I don’t need to prove a fucking thing
I don't care who you are I don't owe you anything I Won't live with this anymore I don't need to prove a thing
Losing control of everything Weighing on me day after day Closing in till I can’t breathe I need to get away
Your constant need to fill your life with drama and hate Is why you'll always be stuck in the exact same fucking place
As you indulge in the bitterness you crave I’ll watch you dig your grave, while I plan my escape
I don't care who you are I don't owe you anything I Won't live with this anymore I don't need to prove a thing
Never again will I swallow my pride To cater to your pathetic way of life
I don't care who you are I don't owe you anything I Won't live with this anymore I don't need to prove a thingDistance From Reality - The SecondDistance From Reality2021-01-15 | "The Second" from our debut EP "It Sets Me Free" available now.
LYRICS: You told me you'd be there Stop the petty lies Left behind in the dust Completely Bled dry Deceived the innocent to Applaud your own fucking demise
Don't act like you cared Stop the false promises Severed the ties to take to your own grave
Piece, of my soul Ever, left unwhole
Don’t, act like you cared All the shit you spat you ruined Relationships quicker than every bridge that you burned
You told me you’d be there Stop the petty lies Left behind in the dust Completely bled dry Deceived the innocent to applaud your demise Severed the ties to take your own grave
Piece, of my soul Ever, left unwhole
Day after day Week after week The lies were all the same You never showed, you never cared Took the last drop of hope out of me
Day after day Week after week The lies were all the same You never showed, you never cared Took the last drop of hope out of meDistance From Reality - Do It For The... (audio)Distance From Reality2020-12-11 | "Do It For The..." by Distance From Reality, the third single from our debut EP "It Sets Me Free" available now.
LYRICS: Going through the motions and hating every moment I can't let go I feel so numb Now I'm in too deep, perspective I can't keep Every day, these same old thoughts repeat
What's the point of it all
Do it for experience, do it for the growth Do it it you don't, you'll never know Do it for the new, fuck the old Nothing changes in your comfort zone Do it for the love, forget about the hate Do it cuz it's all that keeps you sane Do it for the world, do it for me I'll do it cuz it sets me free
There's no hope when you live like this An inescapable cycle of misery and bliss I want to break free but I lost my mind Sometimes all we need is something to remind
What's the point of it all
Do it for experience, do it for the growth Do it it you don't, you'll never know Do it for the new, fuck the old Nothing changes in your comfort zone Do it for the love, forget about the hate Do it cuz it's all that keeps you sane Do it for the world, do it for me
Cuz it sets me free If I don't, then I'll be sick It'll make me sick Ugh
Do it for experience, do it for the growth Do it it you don't, you'll never know Do it for the new, fuck the old Nothing changes in your comfort zone Do it for the world, do it for free It's so much more than money that leaves your legacy Do it cuz I can, do it just to see Discovering the height of my capabilities
Do it for your soul, do it for your health The other side is heaven when you're going through hell Do it for the love, never for the hate Do it cuz it's all that keeps you sane Do it for them, it's not just about me You deserve all my passion and energy
I'll do it cuz I can, I'll do it just to see I'll do it cuz it sets me free
I wanna live my life fully I wanna cut out all negativity Keep on trying till I die It makes me feel alive
I want to feel alive I want to feel aliveDistance From Reality - All Ive Ever Known (audio)Distance From Reality2020-11-13 | "All I've Ever Known" by Distance From Reality, from our debut EP "It Sets Me Free" available now.

Soothed by bliss Scathed in ignorance Longing to stay In the safety I create
Give ourselves the time to regain perspective Build back up and overturn the negative
Another battle to be fought Doesn’t matter, my intentions
Wasted energy is time Spent in indecision
Things only fall apart There is no end We’ll put ourselves through hell To make amends
If we run forever then we’re crippled by fear So fully live the moment and remember why you’re here
Back, to real life Prepare to fucking fight You can only run for so long before the light dies Back, to real life Give this, one more try Put it all on the line, the only way to feel alive
Sick of wasting so much time, I’m gonna burst
We can’t run forever and be crippled by fear So fully live the moment and remember, why, you’re Here
Ugh
Back, to real life (Real life) Prepare to fucking fight You can only run for so long before the light dies Back, to real life (Real life) Give this, one more try (One more try) Put it all on the line, the only way to feel alive
If we run forever then we’re crippled by fear So fully live the moment and remember why you’re here
