Play dead again. It just might stop before the end.
If I pretend you may not see the pain I’m in.
So close to me, can’t tell what I’m supposed to be.
Don’t stop to breathe, can’t bear to think what you might see.
This tourniquet, these blessed hands around my head
So I can keep from…
Bleeding.
I’ve got to find a way to stop before it starts.
Finding its way through my veins right to my heart.
I never thought it something everyone could see.
And it kills within me.
I see those hands, you see those hearts.
Some are slow to believe.
Give me rest from this world.
It’s going to kill me.
Inside I’m falling apart.
What will save me?
I never knew I was so dead until I met you.
It’s almost over.
Dry these tears from my eyes.
Breath in me a new beginning.
Never let this love fade away.
It’s almost over.
This is the only thing we’re fighting for.
We’re gonna make it through the night.
When all the hope we had is dead and gone.
The only way to remain strong.
I will never look back.
Give me rest from this world.
I never new I was so dead until I met you.
Give me rest from this world.
Set me free from my darkness.
Give me rest from this world.
Set me free from my darkness.
Give me rest from this world.
Set me free from my darkness.
This is the only thing we’re fighting for.
We’re gonna make it through the night.
When all the hope we had is dead and gone.
The only way to remain strong.
This is the only thing we’re fighting for.
We’re gonna make it through the night.
When all the hope we had is dead and gone.
The only way to remain strong.
Give me rest from this world.
Set me free from my darkness.
This is the age of the dead.
The generation of pagan and self-led.
You can feel the bones shatter beneath our feet.
The blood of lust staining our teeth.
We feed on pain (pain), disorder (disorder), delusion (delusion).
The filth of the modern plague.
And in this reign of Godlessness, the heathens will say…
Tie this around your neck.
Tie this around your neck.
Tie this around your neck.
Tie this around your neck.
Fool.
Save your breath my son.
Just carry on home.
Time will prey on you and take you through Hell.
I’ve heard every empty line.
Every curse, every word that you redefine.
I will turn my back on the coming storm.
Won’t lie in the grave, I will be reborn.
They say…
Tie this around your neck.
Tie this around your neck.
Tie this around your neck.
Tie this around your neck.
Fool.
Save your breath my son.
Just carry on home.
Time will prey on you and take you through Hell.
Confusion reigns.
Pride of the hopeless herd.
Blind to the will, blind to the word.
They will drown in the rule of man.
Helpless and alone.
Save your breath my son.
Just carry on home.
Time will prey on you and take you through Hell.
They say…
Tie this around your neck.
Tie this around your neck.
Fool.
Tie this around your neck.
Tie this around your neck.
Fool… Fool… Fool.
Demon Hunter — Tie This Around Your Neck
A voice screaming from within
Begging just to feel again
Can’t find who I am without you near me
I’d give anything to live
Cause without you I don’t exist
Your the only one who saves me from myself
I abandoned this love and laid it to rest
And now I’m one of the forgotten
I’m not, I’m not myself
Feel like I’m someone else
Fallen and faceless
So hollow, hollow inside
A part of me is dead
Need you to live again
Can you replace this
I’m hollow, hollow and faceless
Shadows growing in my mind
Ones I just can’t leave behind
I’m not strong enough to pay this ransom
One more monster crawled inside
But I swear I saw it die
Can you save me from the nothing I’ve become
I abandoned this love and laid it to rest
And now I’m one of the forgotten
I’m not, I’m not myself
Feel like I’m someone else
Fallen and faceless
So hollow, hollow inside
A part of me is dead
Need you to live again
Can you replace this
I’m hollow, hollow and faceless
I’m faceless
I’m hollow and faceless
We are the faceless
We are the nameless
We are the hopeless
Until we have faces
I’m not, I’m not myself
Feel like I’m someone else
Fallen and faceless
So hollow, hollow inside
A part of me is dead
Need you to live again
Can you replace this
I’m hollow, hollow and faceless
Faceless
Red — Faceless

This is an amazing song by the rock group Red. If you have never listened to them before, you should seriously check them out. They have an awesome unique style and do some amazing work! This is one of their newer songs that I absolutely love!
It holds a strong message of how we can all feel at times. We become overwhelmed by the world around us, and may become hurt or confused in situations. We lose who we are. We feel empty. We feel faceless. And often times all we want is someone who will save us from that emptiness.
