Shadows

Time and suffering

The only constants in my fragmented existence

I am the void

Slaves ain't masochistic

They bow their heads

And pretend they wear a crown

They sit on their throne of the dead

Shadows are all that I see

Is there anyone left alive

Come and give me sanctuary

Shadows are beckoning me

Follow us to the end of time

Far away from tragedy

Pain and desperation the only option

Time will accept no forgiveness

I watch them fall

The end a simple concept

We are waiting for nothing

As our lives pass us by

We are blind to the struggle ahead

Everywhere I look

People walking 'round acting restless

Saying things they do not mean

Look in my eyes with a smile

As I play unoffended

I play unoffended

Shadows are all that I see

Is there anyone left alive

Come and give me sanctuary

Shadows are beckoning me

Follow us to the end of time

Far away from tragedy

Shadows are all that I see

Is there anyone left alive

Come and give me sanctuary

As it all falls apart

And we watch the dawning of the end

'Til all the lines of existence fade away
