I've descended into chaos A cataclysmic upheaval Withering away day by day A broken shell of the man That I was before So brittle, so frail My body, has failed Misfortune entails Will darkness prevail? Where will the forlorn path take me now? Is it time to free my mind? Surrender myself To what I most fear? Visions of a brighter future take shape They hold me, and lull me in With a promise of hope Yet decay and dismay surround me And bind me to their will Fooled by a cruel trail of deceit Trapped! Will darkness prevail? Where will the forlorn path take me now? Is it time to free my mind? Surrender myself To what I most fear? Where will the forlorn path take me now? Is it time to free my mind? Surrender myself To what I most fear?

Plug into a place where creatures wander And shadows form in every corner Cruel fingers speak twisted, vile words In this dark hall of the hypocrites Go feed the machine and spin the wheel Peel back withered skin to reveal Flesh wired together with circuitry The hideous nature of mortal man through a screen Haven of fools Respite for the blind Safe behind glass walls But the floor will fall beneath your feet Reconnect the disconnect into a false reality Initiating the divide With the worshipped weapon! Commencing disposition Satisfied with your infliction Oblivious to the parasite That feasts upon you It brings you no joy yet you cannot stop It will consume you for all are Conscripted to the struggle of a life Serving the worshipped weapon Feeding the reward mechanism Reconnect the disconnect into a false reality Initiating the divide With the worshipped weapon Commencing disposition Satisfied with your infliction Tracing steps through time Reveals tricks of the mind The illusion of validation It’s a fragile thing, what other people think There is more to your existence Then punishing others

On this night, are you to be my host? To haunt me and keep me as your hostage again? I’ll linger in your presence Your shadow drapes my walls And fills my restless mind With poisonous thoughts Depart from me! Devourer of dreams You’re born of frustration Compulsion consumes me While the clock ticks so slowly Devil's snare, roots that bind The more I fight it gets tight! A demon has come to steal my sleep The hour of the wolf is upon me! I try so hard to push you away Futile efforts leave things unchanged Go! Leave me be! Frozen still, I'm paralyzed! My eyes see, but I can't speak Dark forces, they taunt me Devil's snare, roots that bind The more I fight it gets tight! A demon has come to steal my sleep The hour of the wolf is upon me! You try to take it all from me But I’ll fear you no more Born of frustration Merely an illusion The dawn will rise again! The hour of the wolf When sleepless are haunted Time moves so slowly now And minds stay restless The hour of the wolf When sleepless are haunted Time moves so slowly now And minds stay restless

I took a leap of faith Into the unknown I don't understand… Why I feel this way I had fortified my barricades Built my walls high Only to be torn down Losing all control I've felt this place before Footprints of my past I can't see through the mist ‘Tried to resist The embers of darker days Fear latches onto the faded memories Awakens a dormant monster It survived to pursue me As I wander the mist once more! I yield myself to its cold embrace But when I stumble and fall I look to you to pick me up again Be my guide by my side Lift me up! Restore me! Losing all control I've felt this place before Footprints of my past I can't see through the mist ‘Tried to resist The embers of darker days Be my lantern in the dark Help my eyes see clearly now Free me from the isolation Towards a site of grace Through the mist, I wander Hoping to find my way Lead me out, I’ve gone astray Give me the strength to fight again!

Dispel your fears, and let them go Come lay down here by my side You’re safe with me; I’m guarding you Now and forever you’ll be mine Oh, such beauty in love For better and for worse United as one What would I have to do? To stay by your side ‘Til the end of time? Take all I have to give All that I am and all I will be Kindred spirits I see Forever! A life together, unfettered and free Speak your mind Open hearts Nothing you say Will make me turn away Dispel your fears, and let them go Come lay down here by my side You’re safe with me; I’m guarding you Now and forever you’ll be mine Tame the raging storm in my head Comfort and soothe the aching soul You hold a power over me Awaken my spirit and give me your energy I feel like I’ve found Beauty beyond compare Dispel your fears, and let them go Come lay down here by my side You’re safe with me; I’m guarding you Now and forever… When days of darkness laid bare before me You’re my light and my strength Heaven sent, my guardian A love that burns so bright in my life
