Fragments of a Nightmare
I find myself in this place, with nothing here for me Why should I stay? Once everything has gone The emptiness I crave, has forsaken me Leaving a memory Meantime I find myself alone On the beaten path home To find myself away from all my distant memories Only to see that the life I’ve found has left me dead inside I never thought that these things could ever happen to me With all things done I am alone – Sweet Tragedy Meantime I find myself alone On the beaten path home Won’t someone help me now? Sweet Tragedy is calling me With nothing here to keep me on the ground I ask the question: Why am I here? I find myself in this place, with nothing here for me Why should I stay? Once everything has gone I never thought that these things could ever happen to me With all things done I am alone – Sweet Tragedy

The dawn, black sun rising, shows no remorse The truth, forever smiling, down upon you My mind, forever reeling, eternally Never to wake from nightmare Forget me Beware all those that follow. This path of pain and sorrow For I was once alive, each time I seek and find you Together we’ll be free. Lost in the black sunrise The black sunrise has taken me The black sunrise has set me free Forget me

Dare to dream of a time, with nothing left in shadows Fight or flight in your heart, and in your soul In the end “I’ll come for you and take you away from here Away from all your darkest fears I’ll give you a life you thought you would never find.” Believe my Judas lie I will take you away. It is for me you pray Surrounded by enemies, waylaid on all sides I fill with emptiness, a pain that’s deep inside “I have come to take your shame And Judas is my name.” Can’t you heal me? Can’t you feel my own way Can’t you feel this? The sunset of my days I was looking for a way to escape But found nothing – I return to my fears

Wake; to hear a bitter scream Alone in the darkness, the terror unseen An image comes forth, reveals to me Dancing through my mind in stunning sadness Her eyes, ablaze with insane fright Manic symphony, mistress of madness Fades from sight She comes for me, in darkness where I cannot see She comes for me, please leave me be Until I find I cannot run, I cannot hide From my insanity, from my demise Sleep; the final respite Made clearer through silence and sweet lack of sight A peaceful return, reveals to me Now I find no escape. I’m lost inside my mind Madness my only companion, and death my only friend

I stand to lose it all, from where I stand Nothing here to save me now, leaving me proud Don’t save say “Myself” to me In life I’ve found, nothing but tragedy, and loss so dark; profound Retain myself, retain the doubt, retain my self belief You question everything that I do, everything that I say No-one will retake from you Always remember. Always remember that you Have nowhere you can hide, from your lies All things will come to pass, before your eyes In the darkness is where you’ll find me Come and watch me struggle Always remember

Inside myself I scream, staring back at me The mirror lied to you, the traitors smiling back “I will take you down” Take me far away “I will take you down” When fools seem to guide the way Traitors Smile Have you come to take me away? From this; I know Have you come to cleanse my soul? To tear me apart The Traitor. The Traitors Smile The Traitors Smile, live in denial, is staring back at me For in the end, you’ll be nothing. No-one will hear your cries “I will take you down” Until the bitter end; I will taste victory “I will take you down” “I will take you down” Take me far away “I will take you down” To tear me apart The Traitor. The Traitors Smile Inside myself I scream, staring back at me The mirror lied to you, the traitors smiling back

In the darkness of night, I will struggle to find you My soul is cold, in despair With nowhere left to run, I turn to you at last Help me escape from here With you I can escape, with you I’ve found a strength Eternal I’ll be in wait The morning seems alive, as the unknown dark subsides Will you be there to see it through? Will you be gone? Inside my darkness, I’ll look for you Inside my darkness, please see me through For I will be alone, when next it comes for me I am prepared for thee This fight I cannot win, enshrined and made of sin But I will not step back

Now it’s here to stay, the awakening, show your pain I am ready to go with just one word from you then I’ll be gone I am questioning everything that I’ve done to this point But deep inside I’m lost – you’ll never find me I would struggle to find everything that I thought was mine I am helpless in the face of a thousand pain filled tears When the world is breaking down, I look for a peace not found Everything seems alright; the awakening So dry your eyes now, and look to the future Seems that all will be just fine; the awakening I am struggling to find the words that say what I feel So I just stand there and look you in the eyes. Wipe away your tears But deep inside I’m lost – you’ll never find me Wipe away your tears

As nightmares take away, when everything has gone Daylight, it fades from the sky. As night, closes in Search for a way to get home, through the forests and trees Alone the madness it seems to take me, down a darkened path Will I take the light, or will I take this life? I run to a better place, where I will find Everything that’s taken away from me; disarmed Now I steel myself in readiness for the times that’s come Will you remember me? Dying Light Now everything has gone. Into the place of bitterness The darkness is seeps from my mind Freed from the chains. I find I’m not lost in this dream Alone the madness it seemed to take me, down this darkened path Did I take the life? Or did I seek to be free?

For in the beginning, at a time when all seem lost My blood, my sweat, my tears, had left me bare There is no return, from where I go There is no way back – This I know This is the final call For those who’ve lost it all It is here I’ll make my stand I thought that you would understand Are you here to remind me? Are you here to see them bleed? You will always find me I will rise to the challenge – Fall! This is the final call For those who’ve lost it all It is here we’ll make our stand I knew that you would understand The Final Call
