lyrics

I know that you’re with me / I hear your footsteps matching pace
And I know what you’re thinking / like words were carved into your face
So, spare me this temptation / you creatures filling up this place
The night is never-ending / and I may yet still fall from grace.

So tell me
How can I free myself from you /
If there’s a way, I’ve got to know
Cause you've been with me for so long /
I'd almost hate to see you go
How can I free myself from you /
If there’s a way, I’ve got to know/
If there’s a way, I’ve got to know

The sound is so familiar / Your leathery wings are closing in
The pain is almost comfort / As your claws sink into my skin
The agony might kill me / So why is it I can't let go?
Cause I'm afraid to live without you / Yeah it's hell, but it's the only thing I know

So tell me
How can I free myself from you /
If there’s a way, I’ve got to know/
Cause you've been with me for so long /
I'd almost hate to watch you go
How can I free myself from you /
There's only one way that I know/
There's only one way that I know

What am I afraid of / this is all I wanted / the darkness, the silence / a rest for my weariness.
am I mistaken / or am I a coward / will I find within me / the strength to move forward
Now cornered and helpless / and run out of choices / I must seek escape/ if this battle is pointless /
so seeking the comfort / embrace of the cold earth / With blade that can liberate body from soul

How can I free myself from you / There’s only one way that I know
There’s only one way that I know

(No.........)




[Alternate Verse/Chorus]
Found you in my nightmares / and prayed awake, I’d find respite
But still, your presence lingers / You are the hell inside my mind.
It must be so easy / to put the blame on someone else
But one look at these demons / and I know / I know my enemy’s myself

How can I free myself from you / If there’s a way, I’ve got to know
Cause if these demons can be slain / then there’s still time to save my soul.
