Darkness wraps her arms Around the fading day Like an outcast, as it seems Begging him to stay Swallowing the rays of light Before the curtain falls Haunted by uncertainty Of what the future holds I don't know where I come from I don't know where to go On a never ending journey Through the turmoil of my soul In the labyrinth of sorrows anxiety unfolds The darkness that surrounds me Is the long forgotten friend who's coming home Slowly, the sun unveils Her light in shades of red Building effigies of shadows Barely born already dead On her throne she weaves the burden For another day Before she's taking leave To dwell in solitude again When I wake up in the darkness From the numbness of my dream In the gloom of mournful shadows Things are never what they seem As I'm longing for compassion In the twilight between night and day My wishes and my memories Seem to wilt, to fade way
