A fleeting illusion, profound confusion And suddenly you’ve lost your way The demons that haunt you, a world that taunts you But you long to escape An infinity of the anarchy raging in your mind Endless fears of chaos near But can you free yourself and awake? Throw yourself upon the altar Pray to your gods for sweet release Shackled and caged by your dark past Longing for redemption you cry to they who turn blind eyes And only you can save you now Open your eyes and see the sun And now is not the end The darkness is not real The enemy is only what you feel In this life, we all leave as quickly as we come If you dwell only in shadow and waste away in your dreams Your soul cannot be free Traipsing on down the road of the damned Vision clouded by uneasy mist You linger on but fade away And only you can save you now Open your eyes and see the sun And now is not the end The darkness is not real The darkness is not real
