Darkness Coming Down
So many questions
Spoken and unsaid
Constant battles raging
For control inside my head
Pushed out to the limit
Fade into surreal
To think that what you're thinking
Is what you thought you'd feel

My mind is left in neutral
Pedal to the floor
Getting nowhere faster
Than anyone thats come before
Am I feeling empty
Or do I feel a thing
Time is lost in empty space
Hurt to strong to feel the sting

Empty roads to empty dreams
Open spaces left unseen
Loosing things you've never found
In the darkness coming down
Beliefs that have no meaning
Relying without leaning
Hope comes like the hunted
If you look it can't be found

The world may look some brighter
You come out of your shell
To find the brightness comes from
The blazing fires of hell
The flames consume desire
Charrs your inner soul
Withdraw into the darkness
And familliar cold

Empty roads to empty dreams
Open spaces left unseen
Loosing things you've never found
In the darkness coming down
Beliefs that have no meaning
Relying without leaning
Hope comes like the hunted
If you look it can't be found
