Unearth the light below the abyss
Leads to my gallery of failures
I curse the stars that guide me there
Shattered frames beyond repair
It manifests between the lines
Of every picture like a parasite
Awakening from the darkest night
A graveyard for my dying light
Life's touch sends shivers down my spine
The death of all those dreams
The calling from the grave
Dare I face the break of dawn?
I feel a darkness lurk inside
Where meaning has no voice
Darken the path on lifeless roads
Where I still have no choice
Survive the apex of your storm
Too numb to feel the frost
Open the memories of pain
Like scars of old
Unheard in blizzards I provoked
Stone cold expression on her face
This light will cast no shadows
or show reflections in her eyes
Traverse the abyss of your frail mind
Weakness can thaw what's inside you, for me to find
Corrupted Eden in the realms of sleep
This sense of rot will stain my sight
And in my gallery
A place I built on agony
Awakening in disbelief
A trail of death from where I've been
The frozen lands that taint my dreams
Barren wastes of cold
Fearing the warmth you bring
Touched by your false awakening
To lay down is to be reborn
Stand face to face with all my scorn
To wake up is to die again
