I'm just a clone in this reality An empty vessel on the sea Darkness coming from the light It never does say very bright My heart beating like a drum The faceless enemy making me numb Feeding the fire that's inside I guess I can say that I've tried The haunting walls all around me Years later and I'm still not free Free to leave this space for good All I can do is pull up this hood Living in a hollow shell How long, only time will tell Melting away this wax cocoon Smiling a hindrance rather than boon This is not what I need All I want is to be freed I am destined to fall Just to walk down a dark, empty hall I promise that I will fail To the dark world I will hail I will continue try and try Although I'm not quite sure why From a young child to a hollow man I've done all it is that I can I welcome to my life all the danger It is a part of me and is no stranger I'll pay my toll at the gate I may as well accept this fate Until I find there's no way through I'm just waiting in an endless queue
