Taken my time and gotten only what I'm given Upon the wall my shadow dim With my eyes cold as ice in the past I gaze And sense the rage within
Reflection back burns like hell I didn't win, so hear my yell Last in line in the game of life Betrayed and hollow, it's me who to follow
In sight a despair strong thinking it's all wrong I shouldn't have let go, no way! – I know
Her eyes I see as I close my mind Opening my soul for her to bind The riddler comes to me to ask: "Do you have to hide behind your mask?"
I am not the same I used to be And now I feel painfully free Have to forget all the rain Just to recall the infernal pain People change, I know they do Yet I can't change my point of view No answer to all questions asked So pack your bags and finish the task... (...and die)
Many deeds with no meaning at all Even so I stand tall And without a fear I shed no tear And face what is to come
No more back against the wall No more roaming the empty hall inside my head Where all is dead, where shines no light ahead
Out in the distance, for back lies The essence of life and highest dreams Behind the point of knowledge Where the sense of truth so pure and fine Is cast into the endless time
Taken my time and gotten only what I'm given Upon the wall my shadow dim With my eyes cold as ice in the past I gaze And sense the rage within
Reflection back burns like hell I didn't win, so hear my yell Last in line in the game of life Betrayed and hollow, it's me who to follow
Yet no pitch black letters shall be written For the future reveals its curtain I've heard the eager call from down below But I'll stand tall not letting go!
No pitch black letters... I'll stand tall... Not letting go... Will let go!
