Shapeless Man

The day will purge my darkest lies Awake in myself, but asleep inside The sun reflecting empty eyes Igniting lost places within my mind The night will never hold me still Buzzing dark places that can not kill The spiral of this endless pain The spirit of darkness will rise again The light reshapes what I’ve become The shadows are torn as I’m undone My body cold beneath those flames No mercy for me; I have no name More darkness crawling up my skin The memories call, like burning sin One word to rise in to the knight A whisper of hate and I will fight Again the sun is stealing sight I will never sleep within this light There’s such little truth for what I am Constantly torn: the shapeless man
