lyrics
Hollow shadow, covered in theatrical grey
Search for the brighter colours to clear all the danger away
Footsteps coming closer and closer,
In the light of night or day
Swallows me in different emotions
It's just what you want to see
Victimized, there is no monster outside
Through your blinded eye
Forged by your cimmerian truth
Smouldering creation, Chimera, let it fade away
Unknown features, blurry outlines, fun masquerade
Silently it slips in, let your panic dominate
Hands gripping me tighter and tighter
No relief and no escape
Overwhelmed and petrified I stand here, I can't run away
Realize, there is no threat from the outside
Hiding in your mind
Daylight shows me I was fooled again
How can these dreamlike fears feel so real
I can grasp them, I can touch them, make them my reality
Noises sounding louder and louder
In the quietude of night
Hear them moving closer to get me
Hiding till I'm saved by light
Search for the brighter colours to clear all the danger away
Footsteps coming closer and closer,
In the light of night or day
Swallows me in different emotions
It's just what you want to see
Victimized, there is no monster outside
Through your blinded eye
Forged by your cimmerian truth
Smouldering creation, Chimera, let it fade away
Unknown features, blurry outlines, fun masquerade
Silently it slips in, let your panic dominate
Hands gripping me tighter and tighter
No relief and no escape
Overwhelmed and petrified I stand here, I can't run away
Realize, there is no threat from the outside
Hiding in your mind
Daylight shows me I was fooled again
How can these dreamlike fears feel so real
I can grasp them, I can touch them, make them my reality
Noises sounding louder and louder
In the quietude of night
Hear them moving closer to get me
Hiding till I'm saved by light
