A Soul Tormented

In a room that's dimly lit, where shadows play
I pace, lost in thought, as the darkness sways
The scent of stale coffee, worn leather fills the air
A restless night, my soul tormented, with no escape to share

A bartender's words, a mercenary's guise
A stepping stone to prosperity, my talent, a prize
But what's the true intention, behind the gift so fine
A master manipulator, or a parasite that feeds on my mind

Can't escape the ghost that I've made
A prisoner of my own shame
The darkness whispers my name
A haunting reminder of the pain

On a stage of dreams, where shadows play
A silhouette of grace, stole the spotlight away
I'm a mystery, a voice so divine
My heart skipped a beat, as my world entwined

A melody, a siren's call, beckoned the crowd
The cheers, a frenzied cascade, as my world avowed
The stage, a swirling mosaic, reality torn apart
My heart, a heavy burden, as I lost my place in the art

In the darkness I fell, my glory lost to the night
A dream shattered, fragments of what once was, fading light
But in the shadows a spark remained, a fire that wouldn't cease

A plan for revenge, a path with my guitar
A parasite that feeds on my noise
Can't escape the ghost that I've made
A prisoner of my own shame

The darkness whispers my name
A haunting reminder of the pain
A haunting reminder of the pain

In the silence, a whisper calls
A haunting melody, that echoes through the walls
A reminder of what's been lost
A bittersweet refrain, that forever will be the cost

My fingers, they tremble, with rage
As I strum the chords, of a bitter cage
The music swirls, a maelstrom of pain
A symphony of sorrow, that refuses to wane

On a stage of dreams, where shadows play
A silhouette of grace, stole the spotlight away
A silhouette of grace to be
As my world earned the odds for pain

In the silence, a whisper calls
Awaits a presence that's felt but never creates
A sense of unease that settles like a shroud
A feeling of being trapped, in a world that's avowed

That's avowed, that's avowed

The darkness closes in, like a vice so tight
My heart beats fast, as I face the fight
A battle to reclaim what's been lost and worn
A quest to find redemption, and a new dawn to be born

Be born
Be born

And the darkness closes in like a vice so tight
My heart beats fast as I face the fight
A battle to reclaim what's been lost and worn
A quest to find redemption and a new dawn to be born

Be born

Be born

In a world that's dimly lit where shadows play
A pace lost in thought as the darkness sways
The scent of stale coffee, worn leather fills the air
A restless night, my soul tormented, with no escape to share

A bartender's words, a mercenary's guise
A stepping stone to prosperity, my talent a prize
But what's the true intention behind the gift so fine
A master manipulator, or a parasite that feeds on my mind

Can't escape the ghost that I've made
A prisoner of my own shame
The darkness whispers my name
A haunting reminder of the pain

On a stage of dreams where shadows play
A silhouette of grace stole the spotlight away
I'm a mystery, a voice so divine
