Eternal Slumber

Oh
I understand my mind is not my own
(I found)
Acceptance in this path I walk alone

I trace my memories back to a time
When I could barely hold a single thought
I struggled over and over again
So afraid of what I might become

I grew tired of the endless fight
To pretend that I was something I'm not
I learned to forgive and accept myself
For the all the things that I did wrong

I am the dark that I have always feared
I am the madness slowly drawing near

I know now that I was never at fault
This was the fate that I was handed at birth
After all the years that I lied to myself
I feel relief that I now now my curse

A calming grace now consumes my mind
I am the person I was meant to be
And even now at the end of time
I don't regret the path that set me free

(Set me free)

I am the dark that I have always feared
I am the madness slowly drawing near
I am the wreckage lurking deep inside
I found acceptance in my broken mind

My soul is liberated from the weight I used to bear
I understand that there is nothing left for me here
The time has come to move beyond the limits of my flesh
To find my home among the stars in this eternal rest

My body lies beneath the earth in sweet serenity
I drift across the endless universe, a memory

I am the dark that I have always feared
I am the madness slowly drawing near
I am the wreckage lurking deep inside
I found acceptance in my broken mind
