"Shadows"
I scream, but you just never hear,
You're trapped inside some kind of fear.
I watch you fall, I watch you drown,
You sold your soul, you're breaking down.
They pull your strings, you just obey,
You crave the hurt, you need the pain.
I'm still here, but I'm fading out,
You keep on crawling to your doubt.
In their shadow, I fade away,
And you just run, run astray.
I reach for you, but you're so blind,
Lost in the dark you hide behind.
I'm losing you, my hope is gone,
You're buried in the grave you’ve drawn.
I'm suffocating in your fight,
While you bow down, embrace the night.
I see you crack beneath your skin,
But you'd rather bleed than win.
They pull your strings, you just obey,
You crave the hurt, you need the pain.
I'm still here, but I'm fading out,
You keep on crawling to your doubt.
In their shadow, I fade away,
And you just run, run astray.
I reach for you, but you're so blind,
Lost in the dark you hide behind.
I'm losing you, my hope is gone,
You're buried in the grave you’ve drawn.
I scream, but you won't set you free,
You'd rather die for them, not me.
I shatter, watching you let go,
Crawl to them and leave me alone.
In their shadow, I fade away,
And you just run, run astray.
I reach for you, but you're so blind,
Lost in the dark you hide behind.
I'm losing you, my hope is gone,
You're buried in the grave you’ve drawn.
You're buried in the grave you’ve drawn.
You’re chained to the lies, but I’m breakin' the mold,
I tried to save you, but you’re bought and sold!
Your mind’s a prison, you’re locked in the cage,
Drowning in darkness, consumed by rage!
I can’t take the silence, your world’s a disease,
Beggin' for mercy, down on your knees!
I’m screamin' for you, but you choose the flames,
You’re nothing but a puppet in their twisted games!
Bury yourself in the dirt you crave,
You dig your own grave, but I won’t be your slave!
I’m burnin’ it down, I’m settin' you free,
But you’re too far gone, and you can’t even see!
