Weight of the Shadow - Blaze of Perdition

Come

Eeach effort to rise makes us heavier

Each failed endeavor tightens the noose

As we reach for the stars

They don`t seem to get closer

They just stare and glitter

And the stone keps pulling down

Until our necks start to break

With cracking sound of relief

And crimson tears run from our eyes

As we refuse to submit

No!

Pull me down no more!

I — lost within and broken without

Fractured spirit in search fo reconnection

With the light coming through the darkness

With the darkness hidden behind the light

There is a price for every thruth unveiled

For each step forward, two steps back are a must

There is a purpose in every wound we recive

And our hearts shall turn into maps

One scar at a time

Come to me, stand by me, pierce through my heart as I scream

Become one with my sul and my mind

As I paint my world black to resemble your eyes

Staring at me at night, while I am staring back

My dearest enemy

Lesser twin, rejected child

Twisted reflection in a broken mirror

Or my face incarnate?

Craving for a chance to become

Integrated and whole

I live, I lie, I kill, I die

I am the punishment, I am the crime

I am the one with the darkest void of mine

And I urn

Whatever it takes to progress

Do I carry the shadow

Or does shadow carry me… down?

The more I try to keep it concealed

The more of it slips away

Another look within I take

Another step beyond the veil

Another glimpse of what`s to come

Of what was hidden all along

Another chance to see my hands

So I pull off my velvet gloves

Another face to gaze upon

But this time it is my own
