It breathes from somewhere distant
Like a voice thats veiled by rain
It's the certain sign of failure
That I'm losing you
And myself again
Whats next, whats next?
Tell me
Where do I go from here?
I'm stumbling on through fog
With my ankles wrapped in razor wire
I'm fevered in blackened sleep again
There isn't any light to guide me home
To serenity
Nothing more than cursed night
That blanks my eyes
And bleeds out the vein
My internal nemesis
Is snapping its maw at my heels
Waiting for a herald of weakness
To pull me into the dark again
Into the dark again
The wolves are at my door
I can hear their baited breath
They crave the marrow in my bones
They're longing for my death
(theres a deafening silence
Somewhere just behind me
If I keep running and reach the horizon
I might just get out of here in one piece)
The light of my salvation
Gleaming in my eyes
I can almost feel the warmth again
But I just can reach that glimmering sky
Why should I bear this weighted cross
Upon my weakened knees
And how can I believe in hope
When I don't believe in me
