Deadly Sanctuary
Silently, the years go by.
Secretly you start to die.
Unknown even to yourself.
You weren't so safe up on that shelf.
Sooner or later things do change.
Inside you start to feel so strange.
You cannot seem to shake the feeling.
You realize this time there's no healing.
Your dreams begin to fade forever.
As you understand the twelfth of never.
But hope lives strong enough today.
To give you strength to make your way.
A mystic mayhem made the rules.
With no regard for a game of fools.
Unfair advantage to call your bluff.
It decides when enough's enough.
