Intro
Sitting Wide Awake, Feeling Time Flow On And On
While Night Is Closing In, Cold Indifference Washing Down Upon The
Beating Of My Heart, Left To Crack Beneath The Weight Of
All I Tried To Hold Spinning Out Of Control
Paralyzed And Scared, Feel My Heart Race Faster Than The
Ticking Of The Clock, Thoughts Keep Spinning In A Roundabout
I’m Stumbling Through The Dark, And There’s Nowhere To Escape
‘Cause I’m The Only Thing In This Empty Hellscape
Chorus
Maybe I’m Asleep And This Void Is Just A Dream
Still It Swallowed Up My Voice, Both The Whispers And The Screams
If The Ache Won’t Go Away, If I’m Destined For This Pain
Then I’ll Numb My Heart And Pray Only Nothingness Remains
Even If I Found The Words That Had Long Since Drifted Off
I’m Still Drowning In My Thoughts, They’d Too Soon Be Left To Rot
If I Will Myself To Move, Then The Feelings Flood Right Back
I’ll Be Shrouded From The Light, Till My World Is Painted Black
Chorus 2
Is There Somewhere I Can Turn? Is My Future Still Ahead?
Do I Even Have A Place In The World Outside My Head?
Now The Melancholy’s Here, And It’s All That I Can Feel
Can’t Remember Who I Was, Was I Ever Even Real?
I Have Tried To Carry On, But The Journey’s Dragging On
Friends And Smiles Come Along, Then Betray Me And They’re Gone
If I’m Fated Still To Change, Persevering Through The Night
I’ll Be Bathed Inside The Light, Painted In A Brilliant White

Verse 1
Sitting Wide Awake, Feeling Time Flow On And On
While Night Is Closing In, Cold Indifference Washing Down Upon The
Beating Of My Heart, Left To Crack Beneath The Weight Of
All I Tried To Hold Spinning Out Of Control
Paralyzed And Scared, Feel My Heart Race Faster Than The
Ticking Of The Clock, Thoughts Keep Spinning In A Roundabout
I’m Stumbling Through The Dark, And There’s Nowhere To Escape
‘Cause I’m The Only Thing In This Empty Hellscape
Chorus
Maybe I’m Asleep And This Void Is Just A Dream
Still It Swallowed Up My Voice, Both The Whispers And The Screams
If The Ache Won’t Go Away, If I’m Destined For This Pain
Then I’ll Numb My Heart And Pray Only Nothingness Remains
Even If I Found The Words That Had Long Since Drifted Off
I’m Still Drowning In My Thoughts, They’d Too Soon Be Left To Rot
If I Will Myself To Move, Then The Feelings Flood Right Back
I’ll Be Shrouded From The Light, Till My World Is Painted Black
Verse 2
Do You Honestly Believe There’s A Future Here For Me?
In This Desecrated World, Would I Even Want To See?
If You Saw Me As I Am, There’d Be No One To Defend
Since I’m Empty To My Core, “Good For Nothing” In The End
Even So Must I Exist? In A Time And Place Like This?
In This Pandemonium, That Perpetually Persists
If You Think That I Can Change, If I Follow To The Light
Will My Soul Then Reborn, Dyed An Incandescent White
Chorus
I Could Say That I’m Asleep And This Void Is Just A Dream
Still It Swallowed Up My Voice, Both The Whispers And The Screams
If The Ache Won’t Go Away, If I’m Destined For This Pain
Then I’ll Numb My Heart And Pray Only Nothingness Remains
Even If I Found The Words That Had Long Since Drifted Off
I’m Still Drowning In My Thoughts, They’d Too Soon Be Left To Rot
If I Will Myself To Move, Then The Feelings Flood Right Back
I’ll Be Shrouded From The Light, Till My World Is Painted Black
Outro
If I Struggle On And Move, If I Force Myself To Run
I’d See Everything I Loved Disappearing One By One
If I Give Into The Tears, If I Give Into The Pain
Can This Heart Inside My Chest Turn A Vivid White Again?
Still, The Person That I Am And The Person You’ve Become
Feel Like Fragments In My Head, Hiding Misery Yet To Come
If My Intuition's Right, But I Let You In My Life
My Whole World Would Be Destroyed, Turning Blacker Than The Night
