lyrics
There’s a world unseen
Just beyond perception
Inhabited by horrors
And manufactured beasts
Sift through rust and decay,
Praying that I'll be okay.
This place is so familiar,
(Scream into the silence, darkness all around us)
Its space is cold and vacant
(Bring a map to lead us, shine a light between us)
But I've got this awful feeling
(This is not a coffin, death is not an option)
There's something in here with me.
(I am just an Outcast, staring at the contrast)
Claws and limbs reaching forth
What did I come here for?
Empty streets with no names
(Can't go in and you can't go back)
A darkened city changing shape.
(Lightless days)
I close my eyes and try to catch the breath that I've been holding, clinging to the light as vicious darkness is approaching… And for a moment I forget I'm here, so far away from you. (and these dark alleys almost feel like home) If there's a method to this madness, I don't think I want to know.
Losing my sanity
Break these chains, set me free.
If my body’s just a vessel, go on and tear me limb from limb. This world is just a fire we are fueling.
Crimson hands round my throat
Rip the flesh from my bones.
Tortured souls in the walls
Take my life- end it all.
Empty streets with no names
A darkened city filled with pain.
