Dark Waters

Twilight, still not dark
The snow on the ground sheds light
Silhouette taller than a child
Appears in the doorway

Too strange to be real yet too real to be a dream
Immense fear grabs a hold of me, I'm paralyzed numb and naked
Branches passes me, I see treetops beneath me
A floor in gray below me slowly shuts like an iris

Activity and all turns black once again
Lunacy, my weakness force me to follow
Encountering a depth of hate never seen
Blood runs cold, I cease exist and my soul is hollow

All turns black once again
Lunacy, my weakness force me to follow
Encountering a depth of hate never seen
Blood runs cold, I cease exist and my soul is hollow

Deprived of all pride, I've been stripped of all value
I'm worth nothing here and I know no one
Deprived of all pride, I've been stripped of all value
Worth nothing here and I know no one

I am not crazy, it's just the mind
I am not crazy, it's just the mind
I am not crazy, it's just the mind

She stares at me, at least I perceive her as a she
And she speaks to me, I can hear her, her lips doesn't move
Why can't I be left alone to live my life in harmony?
The visitors by night makes this a living nightmare

Deprived of all pride, I've been stripped of all value
Worth nothing here and I know no one
Deprived of all pride, I've been stripped of all value
Worth nothing here and I know no one

Deprived of all pride, I've been stripped of all value
Worth nothing here and I know no one
Deprived of all pride, I've been stripped of all value
On the other side of the dark waters
