Sudden implosion of silenced emotions Buried beneath a scarred heart for too long Delusions of hope fading away Dying like leaves on frozen soil
My apocalypse is here I can feel the end...coming near
Neglecting existence repulse and repent An endless journey into the morbid Whispering voices distorting all senses Buried beneath a scarred heart for too long
My apocalypse is here I can feel the end...coming near
Lead - Michael Amott
The bitter taste of a dying dream Shine the light on our shadows and illusions
There′s a place that I′ve found As far as I can see This place lies within The depths of my dreams In a garden surrounded By Fire and Trees Through the smoke a silhouette I can barely see There′s a man with an axe Standing in the rain Looked me straight in my eye This is what he had to say
Never fall asleep You won′t wake up Destroy the guillotine Before he does I walk with shadows (You have to find a better way) I walk with shadows (The questions I will never say) Hiding from the gallows (They keep me safe and sound) So I walk in shadows (The ways of burning down this house)
End transmission The satellites are down I need an earthquake To shake this pity off the ground
Just don′t trust these liars at the door (You have to find a better way) Kill the ones that have these answers for (the questions I will never say)
Never fall asleep You won′t wake up Destroy the guillotine Before he does
I walk with shadows (You have to find a better way) I walk with shadows (The questions I will never say) Hiding from the gallows (They keep me safe and sound) So I walk in shadows (The ways of burning down this house)
End transmission The satellites are down (down, down) I need an earthquake To shake this pity off the ground (ground, ground)
All the vibrant colors I see And shades that fill the gray
Pain (The pain) [x8]
Hiding from the gallows (You have to find a better way) I walk with shadows (The questions I will never say) Hiding from the gallows (they keep me safe and sound) So I walk in shadows (the ways of burning down this house)
