lyrics
LYRIC 1
Here stands a man of solitude, walking his dismal path.
The darkness wraps around him like, shadows night alleyways do cast.
As he walks down his demented path, he hears the cry of memories past. –
And even though the voice is comforting and strong, darkness has taken him at last.
(CHORUS)
I HAVE NOT FOUND, the light that’s calling me.
I WILL NOT SEE, until darkness leaves me.
NO ONE WILL FREE ME, no man, no god, no chance.
I’VE LEFT THE LIGHT, I’m lost eternally.
LYRIC 2
Like a blanket of safety it pacifies me,
Darkness keeps life at bay no worries no regrets. -
And with the memories of light fading paper thin,
It seems nothing will… SAVE ME!!!
(Back to CHORUS – *[drag ‘eternally’ out at end])
(SOLO/MUSICAL BREAK)
Backgrounds: (…Won’t you shine on me… …Lost eternally…)
BRIDGE LYRIC
Is there really still a chance…
WILL I COME OUT OF THIS!? (This Dream!)
WHERE IS THE LIGHT!!?
(Background) - …Need the light… Oh…
(Whispered) …It’s shining behind this eclipse…
LYRIC 3
Finding the light what does it take? ;
Is it true or is it just illusion?
Only one thing I know might save me from the night…
LOVE COME AND SAVE ME! –
I’M SWALLOWED BY DARKNESS!!!
(Back to CHORUS – *[drag ‘eternally’ out at end])
END LYRIC
Lost eternally! (LOST ETERNALLY!) Whoa…
