Dear Agony

Breaking Benjamin · Dear Agony [2009]

I have nothing left to give

I have found the perfect end

You were made to make it hurt

Disappear into the dirt

Carry me to heaven's arms

Light the way and let me go

Take the time to take my breath

I will end where I began



And I will find the enemy within

Because I can feel it crawl beneath my skin



Dear Agony

Just let go of me

Suffer slowly

Is this the way it's got to be?

Dear Agony



Suddenly

The lights go out

Let forever

Drag me down

I will fight for one last breath

I will fight until the end



And I will find the enemy within

Because I can feel it crawl beneath my skin



Dear Agony

Just let go of me

Suffer slowly

Is this the way it's got to be?

Don't bury me

Faceless enemy

I'm so sorry

Is this the way it's got to be?

Dear Agony



Leave me alone

God let me go

I'm blue and cold

Black sky will burn

Love pull me down

Hate lift me up

Just turn around

There's nothing left



Somewhere far beyond this world

I feel nothing anymore



Dear Agony

Just let go of me

Suffer slowly

Is this the way it's got to be?

Don't bury me

Faceless enemy

I'm so sorry

Is this the way it's got to be?

Dear Agony



I feel nothing anymore

Dear Agony

Released in 2009 on the self-titled album Dear Agony, this track stands as a defining moment in the career of American rock band Breaking Benjamin. The song exemplifies the group's signature sound, blending heavy, melodic metalcore with anthemic choruses that have become staples of their discography. Produced to capture the raw energy of the late 2000s nu-metal revival, the recording features the band's characteristic dual-guitar harmonies and driving rhythms. It serves as a powerful example of their ability to craft emotionally charged tracks that resonate with fans of the genre, solidifying their status as a prominent force in modern rock music during that era.
