You found my black shape in the corner
I'm just trying to forget
My silent vigil, lonely mourner
with red wine, cigarette.
You question my behaviour
It's my funeral, your regret
Suicidal fear of failure
my fading silhouette.
Conclusions left unseen
What frightens me is what lies inbetween
Don't darken my horizon with your shadow
your imitation halo
Nothing means anything anymore to me
it's all just a mirror to my agony
Smiling, beguiling, you twisted the knife
you've got everything now take my life.
Find solitude within a crowd
the outsider looking in
Your effervescence a mere shroud
the demons deep within
My scars show all the memories
of the cataclysmic black unknown
The flicker of the candle throws a lifeline
a rescue from the maelstrom
from the maelstrom
from the maelstrom
I return to sanctuary
Euphoric loneliness heaven sent
Give me what's contusive to my rapture
Red wine, cigarette
My scars show all the memories
of the cataclysmic black unknown
the flicker of the candle throws a lifeline
a rescue from the maelstrom
Conclusions left unseen
what frightens me is what lies inbetween
Don't darken my horizon with your shadow
Your imitation halo
