Guarded - Disturbed

Guarding yourself from the love of another

Left you with nothing tonight

Why does it sound like the devil is laughing

Leaving me haunted tonight

You did decide

Now I want you when you’re gone, and now it’s like

You’re holding something just in front of me

Well, then, I can’t allow this to become another

One of those times that I’m left in the cold dead

There’s no compromise

Just another tie

I know I need to sever

Guarding yourself from the love of another

Left you with nothing tonight

Why does it sound like the devil is laughing

Leaving me haunted tonight

You did decide

Ever haunted by the trappings of this life

Sweet redemption just in front of me

Well, now, it seems, once again, that I’ve lost another

One of the ones that have broke through the wall damned

Fate won’t compromise

I have sold my soul

And now the devil’s laughing

You did decide

You were bold and strong and ready to begin your life

All for nothing, you were sacrificed

You began alone, and so it will be when you die

All for nothing, will you be remembered?

You did decide

Guarding yourself from the love of another

Left you with nothing tonight

So, now you know why the devil is laughing

He left you with nothing tonight

You did decide
