Playing With Shadows
The sounds of an echo in pain
Eyeless, faceless and insane
The dreams of deception and rain
Weathered, worn and still begging for flame
The song of a child that fades
A rhythm, the screams that contort it will stay
The death of an angel that paid
Forgotten, the devil will rename the grave
Speaking in silence that grows
The fear, the lies that nobody knows
Hearing the victims that chose
Destructive, deceiving their lives just for show
Past the reflections and sand
Demons and angels all holding death’s hand
Past our deceptive demands
A shadow that’s waiting to retake the land
Past the infection of night
Daybreak, a desire to bathe all in light
Beyond the rebirth of pure sight
Nightfall, the devil that wants us to fight
