I took my life, my dreams, and threw them against the wall I made peace with my demons, but together they watched me fall I buried my soul away, and stole myself from those around me Till I reached the breaking point, where my dreams seemed like reality
It was then I realised, when all that remained was skin and bone That through the darkness that clouds me, I am never alone
With open arms and open eyes, I'll leave the dark for the last time and find that I've been liberated This unknown path I walk alone, back to the place I once called home These blinding lights will lead the way there
I've seen the ghosts of a thousand past lives, who've walked this path before me They were but hollow shells, and screamed out what awaits me Should I follow this broken path that leads me to the grave Far from any shelter, where none shall be saved
With open arms and open eyes, I'll leave the dark for the last time and find that I've been liberated This unknown path I walk alone, back to the place I once called home These blinding lights will lead the way there
I close my eyes, but it's never enough - the blinding lights shine in It's building up... the burning in my heart... The fire's in my eyes
