So afraid
|
Open your eyes
|
Know too well
|
That which awaits you
|
Something undefined
|
There in the halflight
|
The demon without
|
The demon inside
|
To play then torment you
|
Feelings so sure
|
Feelings so uncertain
|
Something is wrong
|
Everyone's gone
|
You have been left behind
|
Everyone left the demon inside
|
|
Do you still hear their laughter
|
So hard to describe
|
And never forget
|
Faces that haunt you
|
Wake or sleep
|
You know you can't tell
|
Unable to sleep
|
Unable to fight
|
Unwilling to wake
|
To open your eyes
|
Face your oppressor
|
Still you go on
|
Convinced it will end
|
|
Can you remember
|
A day when it was not
|
Not like this
|
Unsure of yourself
|
Unsure of your thoughts
|
Unable to know
|
Of what you think is right or wrong
|
Still you go on
|
Convinced it will end
|
But someone pushes
|
A blade through your mind
|
There on the edge
|
No one will find you
|
So hearing them laugh
|
No light it's not the end for you
|
|
Why is everything wrong
|
Here I am
|
Here I am
|
With these words
|
Trying to say
|
Something I can't
|
Something I can't tell you
|
Nothing is wrong
|
The demons they have left you
|
You were not left behind
|
You were not left behind
|
So open your eyes
|
So open your eyes
|
Unable to sleep
|
Unable to fight
|
Unwilling to wake
|
Please open your eyes
|
Here I stand
|
Unable to tell you
|
I'm trying to say
|
Nothing is wrong
|
Please open your eyes
|
Nothing is wrong
|
You were not left behind
|
