Picture Perfect Lyrics by Shadows Fall

Retribution

2009

I watch it all collapse
It never seems to last as long as I need it to
A beautiful mistake
A wound without a trace, was it ever even true?
We can't see the future, we can't rewrite the past
Tried to hold it captive but it faded all too fast

Is it much too late to save yourself?

Memories keep calling, deeper into fear I'm falling
Lost within my mind, it haunts me for so long

Trapped beneath the glass
Never a shadow cast, a perfect picture's all I knew
Lost within the struggle, never felt so much alive
Gave into the rapture, didn't care if I survived

Is it too much late to save yourself?

Memories keep calling, deeper into fear I'm falling
Lost within my mind, it haunts me for so long

All my hope is dying even though I keep on trying
Lost within my mind, it haunts me for so long

Is it much too late?

Memories keep calling, deeper into fear I'm falling
Lost within my mind, it haunts me for so long
All my hope is dying even though I keep on trying
Lost within my mind, it haunts me for so long
