Behind the Wall
Welcome to my sanctum here
The only place I can call home
A place I love to retreat to
Whenever I need to feel alone
Allow me to share why I am here
And not by you at all times
I have grown weary of this world
And all of humanity's crimes
Watch, my friend, and you will see
My nightmare is reality
Locked inside this world, a cage
And all my cellmates cause me rage
Behind the wall
I am me
Behind the wall
And that's all I can be
Trust me when I say this now
I'm not to be trusted here
My mind's a shell of what once was
No longer turning are these gears
Solitude is my drug
And reality is when I crash
I feel their gaze upon my back
And feel them burning me to ash
No more will I fight this fight
Propelling me through endless night
I've got this far all on my own
And I'd sooner die alone
Behind the wall
I am me
Behind the wall
That's all I'll ever be
Behind this wall
Take me, creeping death!
Moon is shining strong
Finally growing restless now
It seems it's all a game
One that can't be lost
Fear of moving on
Warmth inside the sweet embrace
That I now shall shun
No matter what the cost
