It's all so clear to me now A fraction of the man I used to be For every breath I take draws in the fear Only I know that the worst is yet to come
I live in a dark world, where no light shines through I carry this burden with every step I take Thrust myself into a new days end And focus on the hour glass, to help pass the time
Day to day I push myself on My facade can fool the strongest mind And my loved ones can only watch from afar A single mirror to view the void
Tragic yesterdays, and unseen futures sleep Footprints in the blood from my wounded heart My dark world is where I call home Until the day comes, and the light calls my name
My arcane cell is covered in resent I never asked for any of this I follow the path which leads me to nothing Searching for my smile I lost long ago
I stand alone in the company of none Cheated by reality, philosopher of the gray A brave inner child stands strong in refuse A treasure of impurity will find a way to breed
