I was living so out of control
Like I was immortal
No man of mercy
Couldn’t understand
Always wasting away
Eternally, through the fire
In the end there’ll be resolution
One’s confined by their own conclusions
No forgiveness for sins we can’t explain
So one sided
Paintings in the gallery of life
Passing before my eyes
Moments we caught in frames
Are all that remain
Dead Man on Display
In the mirror all that I can see
Are the eyes of a stranger
Just staring back and assessing me
Then I fall to the ground in agony
I surrender
They remember a past existence
All was new and the end was distant
Saw me cower with no persistence
Now I'm only a shell
Paintings in the gallery of life
Passing before my eyes
Moments we caught in frames
Are all that remain
Dead Man on Display
We are only portraits on a wall
Nothing’s forever, nothing’s forever
Paintings in the gallery of life
Passing before my eyes
Moments we caught in frames
And all that remains
Is the memory
God have mercy, I have lost my way
Nothing can bring me back
I must accept my fate
For now I’ve become
A Dead Man on Display!
