Shadows
Lost in a cycle, born of desolation
Fear has become my only friend
As the shadows creep up on me
The sleeplessness ceases to end
In the gloom of the night my mind lingers in tragedy
Tending to dwell on the past, susceptible to insanity
How did these shadows find me, what do they want from me?
Though I doubt anything I give will satisfy their needs
I resent the light within me
Giving in to these shadows
This degradation flows into my very being
The thought of reparation drains me of all feeling
I think, therefore I am, but what am I supposed to be?
This life has taught my eyes to never truly see
I resent the light within me
Giving in to these shadows
Holding in my own compassion
For fear of being left behind
And now I'm broken, I lie in torment
My world is dead and so am I
Now I've spoken, so leave me dormant
Woe is me, o' misery
Staring into this illusion
(Staring into this illusion)
Will I be free of my delusion?
(Will I be free of my delusion?)
Shadows embrace me
The dark consumes me
And when I finally sleep (when I finally sleep)
I will be at peace
I resent the light within me
Giving in to these shadows
Holding in my own compassion
For fear of being left behind
Left behind
I think, therefore I am
I think, therefore I am
Fear has become my only friend
As the shadows creep up on me
The sleeplessness ceases to end
In the gloom of the night my mind lingers in tragedy
Tending to dwell on the past, susceptible to insanity
How did these shadows find me, what do they want from me?
Though I doubt anything I give will satisfy their needs
I resent the light within me
Giving in to these shadows
This degradation flows into my very being
The thought of reparation drains me of all feeling
I think, therefore I am, but what am I supposed to be?
This life has taught my eyes to never truly see
I resent the light within me
Giving in to these shadows
Holding in my own compassion
For fear of being left behind
And now I'm broken, I lie in torment
My world is dead and so am I
Now I've spoken, so leave me dormant
Woe is me, o' misery
Staring into this illusion
(Staring into this illusion)
Will I be free of my delusion?
(Will I be free of my delusion?)
Shadows embrace me
The dark consumes me
And when I finally sleep (when I finally sleep)
I will be at peace
I resent the light within me
Giving in to these shadows
Holding in my own compassion
For fear of being left behind
Left behind
I think, therefore I am
I think, therefore I am
