Here, inside my life Trapped inside my mind I am one I cannot escape The cold abyss of reality This place, so vast, so white, so cold, there's no one around to hear my screams--so desperate I need to hear another soul scream as loud as myself, so i continue on the path alone, with only blinding light to follow making no progress, the cold abyss swallows Doomed to wander life so solitarily No more will I be able to escape reality I am back at the start naked and cold Born in this world oh all alone Destruction fills my eyes with pain With no where to go and nothing to gain Lay on my back--defeated corpse Lost in the stars, full of remorse There is no hope, dreams of blue skies They are a lie, alone i shall die

Horizons suffocating, mist fills the sky All signs of life, all signs of light, slowly diminish Eternal darkness, unending winter, is now our life The time will end, unless we find, solace in the last They breathe fills their lungs with frost Souls made of the icy shadows Strength is gained as darkness grows Crossing through lead by the spirits Tears are freezing, heart is stopping Eyes are empty, mind is nothing Shroud is nearing, taking you in Wipes the frost clear, from your conquered shell Embrace the sky, accept the cold, father of winter is now your maker Frostbitten hands appear Through the sky they're coming down Stretching out, they grab a hold Takes us in and shows us the light Now, we see the light, through the clouds The blackened bliss fills our hearts with life Marching forth creating new purity Immortal souls forever growing in the air We breathe fills our lungs with frost Souls made of the icy shadows Strength is gained as darkness grows Crossing through the night lead by the spirits

Hopeless am I in this realm that I've destroyed Light seems to have dwelled but I caught a gleam of life Deep in the shadows Nothing but darkness here in my wasteland I continue on with my dreams of death Hope shining through the fog of the truth It blinds and distorts the view of my life Running towards the light that's shining Thinking not of consequences Grasping hold of the false hope Trying to breathe new life into mine Nothing but darkness here in my wasteland I continue on with my dreams of death Hope shining through the fog of the truth It blinds and distorts the view of my life The light diminishes before I can comprehend My values of my life, now I forever walk Forward leads me nowhere These false rays forever haunting I travel on the path of solitude No one can save me from myself Hopeless am I in this realm that I've destroyed Light forever dwells beyond the infinite horizon Deep in the shadows Nothing but darkness here in my wasteland I continue on with my dreams of death The fog of the truth engulfed all the hope Painfully clear is now my view of life

Dark depths of reality I sit waiting for your soul The frost has consumed me I need your ember to show me out Ignited in the soulless cavern The spark lit the hollow hall A dream now made has quickly died Extinguished before it spread wide Like a moth lead to the light Lifelong senseless flight Your soul attaches onto mine A bond held by the weakest fetters Your warmth, an empty embrace Useless attempt to create a blaze Black rain falls, a mighty wind blows The sky becomes covered with hell Evade the truth, continue on The forlorn flame created in lies Ignited in the soulless cavern The spark lit the hollow hall A dream now made has quickly died Extinguished before it spread wide Like a moth lead to the light Lifelong senseless flight The absence of your soul Leaves me trapped in cold The bond will never grow My cave is forever lone Black rain falls, a mighty wind blows The sky becomes covered with hell Evade the truth, continue on The forlorn flame created in lies Like a moth lead to the light Lifelong senseless flight Ignited in the soulless cavern The spark lit the hollow hall A dream now made has quickly died Extinguished before it spread wide Entire life spent searching for A life of bliss that does not exist Buried beneath the earth I’ll stay Exhuming dreams that'll never be made Refusing to submit to A life that's filled with solitude I grab on with my dying breath You send me down unto my death
