Peeling back the layers of what is real Darkness comes into my realm surreal and Pulsing steady, macabre delight It calls to me beating, somewhere in the night Oh how it burns Dreams broken by you, your suffering and your pain Infect those you love, we share in all the pain Now! Time to be seen See! All that has been Free! All that you think (Let us inside you) No! Let us be you Please! Soon we'll be through What?! Do you desire? (All that I can know) I sit alone by windows So silent, meditating quiet There's nothing odd it seems but A drop of sweat spells it all out Shadows with eyes A force of nature has found a friend Shadow's disguise The memories are cast into light Speak, speak to me she pleads...so kind and motherly One shouldn't speak his thoughts, just keep to your own self Why (I!) have you come here I (You!) want it all clear Shall (We!) we learn about each other and more? Why (I!) isn't the question I (You!) want it all clear Shall (We!) we take our hands, leap into the void We spoke for endless hours, what seemed like lifetimes passing by All that is dark and twisted, a journey through what I once knew Signs from within What might be certain might also fail Signs all around Life with blinders, I shall be found Darkness behind, behind the door, it's Darkness inside, inside each of us I'm in a dream/reality, a paradox so real Contact, eternity between us Answers, it's opening floodgates in my mind Looking straight into my soul he asks me "Are you ready to forgive me?" (Forgive him now!) Now begins my spiral fall into the black Grey ethereal world of answers, answers and lies Curiosity divine yet frightening When left alone the mind will turn on, turn on itself Opened doorways, let the dark come in The void seems frightening but it needs you, needs to be seen No more dreams, the things I've seen in a lifetime of mere seconds - Time compressed, what's the deal to be struck between yourself and I? - No limits, I want to fly, leave the world of mortals far behind No body, I want to die, live as one with the elements in space - A noble step to the light of the darkness of reality - - Count to three, then you'll see this has all been just inside your head - No! I want to stay You! Do not betray I! I found you there (I have freed your soul) We (I!) are to be bound I (We!) cannot be found Die! (No!) singular path (for my desires) Awaken from the stupor of meditation gone awry But still the pain is with me, and to my right he's lying there Stand into light The morning beams of the sun's twilight Stand up and see a newfound path of your destiny
