In the shadows of my mind Incubus whispers, love unkind Intoxicated by the thought Of you, my love, my heart has sought Melancholy grips my soul Loneliness takes its toll I wander through the night Searching for the light But all I find is emptiness A love that's turned to emptiness I'm haunted by your memory My heart a prisoner of your legacy The incubus whispers once more Telling me to close the door To love, to hope, to dreams But my heart still screams For the love that once was mine Now lost in the shadows of time I am intoxicated by the pain Of love that will never gain I'll keep searching through the night Hoping to find the light To chase away the incubus And heal this lonely heart of mine.

Incubus
In the shadows of my mind Incubus whispers, love unkind Intoxicated by the thought Of you, my love, my heart has sought Melancholy grips my soul Loneliness takes its toll I wander through the night Searching for the light But all I find is emptiness A love that's turned to emptiness I'm haunted by your memory My heart a prisoner of your legacy The incubus whispers once more Telling me to close the door To love, to hope, to dreams But my heart still screams For the love that once was mine Now lost in the shadows of time I am intoxicated by the pain Of love that will never gain I'll keep searching through the night Hoping to find the light To chase away the incubus And heal this lonely heart of mine.
