Don't Stay In the Shadow
Don’t stay in the shadow forever
You can’t be afraid of the darkness
That burns you and keeps you apart from
The light that can’t guide you away
From your sorrow
And into eternity
Don’t think of the emptiness left you
Inside of the night you can’t hide from
your terror there’s nothing but fire and
Chains made of fear and despair
As you run with
Your feet never moving
Don’t feel the dead cold that surrounds you
And turns you to ice like the ghost of
A nightmare you can’t die forever
But hope’s left you drowning in hate
For what’s lost
to the wandering silence
Don’t breathe but that won’t be a problem
The air cannot reach you you’ll die without
reaching the morning so mourn but
your tears they won’t kill you you’ll live
Never loving just
Trapped in your pain
Be silent the noise makes no difference
And only your soul feels your torture
yet still your heart’s broken it’s bleeding
And weeping with longing for more
But how can we survive if
Our spirit belongs in the grave?
