Standing Alone by Reach For Andromeda Lyrics
[Chorus: RFA]
Standing alone in the spotlight of the stage of the void
The frozen fire sears my cheeks with frost and noise
[Verse: RFA]
The infernal freezing chamber turns my flesh to obsidian
I bury myself in the ice-formed soot and ash I’m sitting in
What have I become I’m a monster in the flesh
I lie my in delusion and think that I’d be better off dead
How do I fix this? I must slay the demons inside
Or I could just die
Take me out of my delusion
I’m stuck in disillusion
Infernal eternal confusion
Take me out of my delusion
Am I alone or am I isolated?
Everything consolidated
Nothing but the infernal hell met the death that I awaited
These events are not related
Yet the life I had created
Was so harsh to me my mind could not but become conflated
Awaken
Realize I’ve become forsaken
I believed I had the upper hand but I had been mistaken
My delusions had been shaken
My mentality was taken
The remains of my damnation stuck ever in contemplation
Standing alone in the spotlight of the stage of the void
The frozen fire sears my cheeks with frost and noise
Sometimes I feel like if I ripped off all my skin
I’d find something dark and sinister within
But all I found was the shovel with which
I used to dig, I did this to myself… I must be such a piece of shit
[Bridge: Justin Bonitz]
And somewhere far away
I am finally home
But that's worlds below me
It seems like fortune deals in flavors of woe
-To live's to lose
I'm crying out to myself
I'm really gonna try
Ima' dive
Ima' make this right!
Before the punchline drops
I reverse control—no more jokes
Cannot choke!
From the start, I melted
Under the spotlight, wilted
Seasons change, bringing hate—bullet fate
Case closed, I'm chosen!
Broken through this frozen lake of flame
Just let me go!
Cannot hold to a place so bitter and cold
Never thought I'd be free
But I guess that it comes with the fame
God blessed my soul
And I'm digging further into the center
I'm reloading everything that I stand for
I'm opposing everything that you stand for
I'm upholding everything that I've bled for
I'm returning everything, and then I'll get gone
'Cause I'm beginning to see that I'm the fool!
[Outro: RFA]
I bow my head in shame
I only have myself to blame
I bow my head in shame
I only have myself to blame
I hide my head in shame
I only have myself to blame
I hide my head in shame
I only have myself to blame
Standing alone in the spotlight of the stage of the void
The frozen fire sears my cheeks with frost and noise
[Verse: RFA]
The infernal freezing chamber turns my flesh to obsidian
I bury myself in the ice-formed soot and ash I’m sitting in
What have I become I’m a monster in the flesh
I lie my in delusion and think that I’d be better off dead
How do I fix this? I must slay the demons inside
Or I could just die
Take me out of my delusion
I’m stuck in disillusion
Infernal eternal confusion
Take me out of my delusion
Am I alone or am I isolated?
Everything consolidated
Nothing but the infernal hell met the death that I awaited
These events are not related
Yet the life I had created
Was so harsh to me my mind could not but become conflated
