Ben Moody Song "All for This" From Album from 2009 with lyrics for 1st time
Lyrics
Seventeen itself assured in secret so to blame
Hold it in, its not a sin, its just a shame
Youre not alone, this man he loves you
In spite of everything you are
But not by my grace
Of the shadows cast in corridors of human hearts
Faith is fact my favorite fiction by far
And every step Ive ever taken
In its grip, the cores the same
Ive fallen on my face
Chorus
I, Im no more than what you see
Never let me halfway on a cross or on my knees
Time took all the faith I need
Born to stand on trial, abandoned by the hand that feeds
Close your eyes and hold on, this will all be over soon
Just another pound of flesh before you go
And after all the dirt and pain and hate and sin has washed away
Whats left of me to l...

Ben Moody 10.22 from 2009 Album All For This
Lyrics
What a tragic affection to harbor
A solace-seeking salvation to squander
Such a beautiful burden to bear alone, I know
Read some fictions of violence
Breaking the silence, hiding awake from the deception
Guarding desperate secrets buried below
And you know
Chorus
Tell me again your f*cked-up excuses
Dying fighting a life of abuse, when
Fame is your game
You say Im to blame
But you know
But you know
This moment carries my last hesitation
Seducing anger to haste a separation
Your solemn piece of a guilty net it grows so cold [I know most of that line isnt quite right]
Every breath now strengthens my affliction
My tears have faded, all hope with your conviction
You were never the martyr you pretended to be
And you know
Chorus
Tell me ag...

Ben Moody Perfect from 2009 Album All for This
Lyrics
The stage is set, Im growing restless
Ive taken worse than you before
I dont want you to want me
Now Im just fine as the failure and the whore
Im not guilty, just convicted
More than you, I loathe my living hell
Having failed to prove a lover(?)
Pleasures gone, Ill take the dead ones dreaming well(?)
Am I so small in your eyes?
Chorus
Youll never be (perfect)
Youll never be (perfect)
Youll never be
Youll never be perfect enough for me
For what its worth, I wont forget you
Now I know how weak I was
Though you left me as a victim
All the scars have left me bulletproof
Am I so small in your eyes?
Chorus
Turn around and see the monster
Not the one you paint me as
[Cant get this line]
Hungry for the blood of all like you

Ben Moody Hold Me Down 2009 Album (All For This)
Lyrics
Holding up tight in a drunken haze
Shutting out light to stop the day from taking hold
You cling to me with bloody hands
Playing my part, this martyrs dance, it gets so old
Chorus
Hold me down
If you have to drown, I will drown with you
If you have to burn, Ill burn in hell with you
Ive put to death a hundred times
Ghosts that haunt your weary mind as darkness grows
Then love breaks through your bitter stare
With all my strength I cannot bear to let you go
Chorus
If I cant pull you up to breathe with me again
Then your pain is mine to share tonight
This fight will take us (..there?)
Chorus
Ill burn in hell with you
Ill burn in hell with you

Lyrics
Why am I thinking of you today
You should be millions of miles away by now
Its funny how it hurts me this way
Its not the words that you say, but that you believe them
F*cked up as I ever was
Make sure no one sees me on my knees
Clinging to my rage just because
Its easier to believe in
More than

These lies and secrets, hopes and regrets
Its just the way we are
Know I want to believe you, youll only leave too

Dont even stop to wonder why
Its not the reason that stays, but that its over

What am I reaching for
You dont love me anymore
So just leave me here with our
