"Perdition"
Gm Eb F
Verse 1:
Can you motivate my soul?
Be enough for me?
Will you lead me to
the end so I can be free?
I know that you are who I love
But I cannot grasp it
I hide the fact,
And always seem to just mask it
Chorus:
I lack ambition and
ruined by perdition
Solicit the rendition
with no intuition
I know I'm wishin'
without a mission
There lacks the ignition
for sedition of condition
But hear I grovel
and ask for power
maybe someday
I will honor the hour
But as time ticks by
I bear these tears
So in the end
there is no such
thing right here
Verse 2:
Why is it hard?
I just cannot breathe
My lungs are choking
smoked like disease
There is a line that you crossed
and now you bear those scars
You bleed the pain
as it cuts off your dearest heart
Chorus:
I lack ambition and
ruined by perdition
Solicit the rendition
with no intuition
I know I'm wishin'
without a mission
There lacks the ignition
for sedition of condition
But hear I grovel
and ask for power
maybe someday
I will honor the hour
But as time ticks by
I bear these tears
So in the end
there is no such
thing right here
Hook:
I am in sync
with my drink
for I can't unkink
My thoughts
overflow so fast
I cannot even last
Listen to the dark
There is the light
Maybe once or twice
you will see that
I am not right
So I try to fight
But lose in spite
Here its dark
Black not white
Right?
Verse 3:
I cannot breathe
So I always lose hope
Some days are just so bad
that I cannot cope
The days become years
The future is my fears
The only way to tell what's real
is to let it appear
Chorus:
I lack ambition and
ruined by perdition
Solicit the rendition
with no intuition
I know I'm wishin'
without a mission
There lacks the ignition
for sedition of condition
But hear I grovel
and ask for power
maybe someday
I will honor the hour
But as time ticks by
I bear these tears
So in the end
there is no such
thing right here
