In the shadows of the land
There's weathered faces lined with pain
Their eyes burn
They can see the darkness in your soul

Banished to a shadow prison
The needle skips and spins
Turn off the dark
Remove this bed of pins

The walls are not thick enough to hold
The weight of what they've heard
There's a blaze of light
In every word

They say you took the name in vain
Do you even care to know the name
Living in your head
Growing insane

Waking up in cold sweats
Heart cast in the sea
Cant they hear your call?
Why wont they set you free?

Stuck inside these walls
The clock is barely breathing
Face against the window
They all look as if they're seething

Suppressed by childhood fears
All that's under the skin
Wondering how you got these scars
The future is looking grim

The stars all seem to weep
Nothing but dim shades of grey and blue
Little do you know
This world was never meant for one as beautiful as you
