Herald of Darkness (feat. Alan Wake & Mr. Door)

From what I've gathered, you grew up nice and sheltered With mama's pretty stories and your own made-up furies And mama gave me a magic clicker Well, yes, I think it's true and fair to say C'mon in and listen, lost words you've been missing Of the fire you're bearing, the eye of the darkness, your light So, you were drawn to stories early on? My dreams would light up my imagination And you had nightmares night and day? Yeah, but with the clicker, I chased those frights away Who knew? So true So here is a clue of hope to remember Visions, they come true, obeying the light switch too Show me the Champion of Light I'll show you the Herald of Darkness Lost in a never-ending night Diving deep to the surface, oh And all your stories of crime and chilling thrillers Of hard-boiled killers became bestsellers (And the award goes to Alan Wake) It was all too much, I had to get away The story's the end-all, a piece of true fiction Made meaningless in the face of creation But there is more to it than meets the eye I never meant for it to ruin my life that way Would you say you lived a jaded lie? Dark shades could never save the day So sad But true Fighting the nightmares, torch and a light switch A gift or a curse? A reality made of dreams Show me the Champion of Light I'll show you the Herald of Darkness Lost in a never-ending night Diving deep to the surface, oh He could write a new story like Tom Zane before him And maybe they'd be happy once again Just one shot, one more chance for him to save their marriage Away from the city, a romantic getaway Still, he's the torchbearer, and it couldn't be much clearer A war needs its warrior, true and right The darkness within him held her hostage Had he seen her drowning, would've saved her from the darkness of the lake Show me the Champion of Light Oh, I'll show you the Herald of Darkness Lost in a never-ending night Diving deep to the surface, oh Such a dark place, am I trapped in here? Is this real? I cannot remember There was a manuscript, it held a key A vicious cycle I must not surrender to Echo scenes to seek out again and again Until I figure it out to bring this song to its end I will bring this song to its end You got to figure it out to bring this song to its end Show me the Champion of Light I'll show you the Herald of Darkness Lost in a never-ending night Diving deep to the surface, oh
