I check myself cuz I should be dead

The rings of flame still inside my head

The blue facade slowly turning red

Evil denizen

The life supports punctuated hum

Sit by your side for the day to come

The truth is black like obsidian

Seek a medicine

Get tough

Don't back out

Time to ditch your doubt

Gate crash

Don't you stop

Countdown to the drop

I just couldn't win cuz there was nothing I could ever change

So puny and thin

My body was a cage

But under the skin I got so comfy on this bed of nails

Death always fails

Back to take the pain to give you what you're begging for

Be my shadowborn

We're back to take the pain

My soul is indestructible

I steal you from the grave

So cursed to be a slave

There's a darkness I keep that you can never see beyond

In the dungeons so deep, down where the stars ain't ever shone

There's a distance between us that you'll never overcome

In the deafening silence, when the day has come and gone

Calm before the storm

It's me they all are coming for

Be my shadowborn

We're back to take the pain

My soul is indestructible

I steal you from the grave

So cursed to be a slave

There's a darkness I keep that you can never see beyond

In the dungeons so deep, down where the stars ain't ever shone

There's a distance between us that you'll never overcome

In the deafening silence, when the day has come and gone
