Goodbye
This dark twisted game.
I'm running desperately trying to escape.
Frozen hands wrap around my mind in cursed fear.
So alone. So scared. So lost.
Can I find a way through this nightmare?
Twilight rising from the setting sun.
I am so cold. so afraid. I believe in the dark.
Shadow People watching me in the silence.
My soul is not safe, I need a way to breathe
as I bleed the ice that flows through my veins.
I'm so frightened,
evermore embracing the sorrow of this undying pain.
Numb as I fall into the depths of the outcast stream.
Drowning in my bitterness.
So sorry for causing all of this despairing bliss.
I am not safe in the shelter of my room.
I am not safe in the light of the moon.
They cover as they cower before the life of me.
So distraught they strike fear into thy heart.
I'm screaming for help,
please somebody help me...
Coming back to haunt me again.
I've lost the battle.
I've lost the war.
The Shadow People coming back to haunt me again.
They've killed me and won....
I lie so paralyzed
as they consume the breath of life from me.
Dead as they carelessly toss away my drained body.
Voices calling out into the night,
whispers sounding,
it is all but a torchured lie.
The Shadow People coming to haunt me again.
I'm possessed by such a spirit,
a wretched demon.
Shadow People haunting me again.
Goodbye beautiful world,
hello forsaken arms of death.
Goodbye darling,
hello again.
