I saw you in my mind when I was younger And I grew older and I say you still You'd stay close to me sometimes behind my shoulder When I was weary, troubled gun
In my last defense you tried to warn me I did not know you, you were a demon to me Your presence here was a fear that lived inside me That grew around me then you would appear
DEEP BELOW THE EARTH I might have found you HIGH ABOVE THE TOWER I could not see DEEP BELOW THE EARTH I might have found you HIGH ABOVE THE TOWER I could not see
I was dead and I was dying at your doorway I did not see you, you did not appear And between the years I might have come to know you But I don't own you, that much is clear
DEEP BELOW THE EARTH I might have found you HIGH ABOVE THE TOWER I could not see DEEP BELOW THE EARTH I might have found you HIGH ABOVE THE TOWER I could not see
I was afraid someday you'd return And changed at my door as you'd once been before The flutter of fortune, the bringer of gloom Out of the darkness and into my room
I was afraid someday you'd return And changed at my door as you'd once been before The flutter of fortune, the bringer of gloom Out of the darkness
