Lyrics

There is a place
That no one goes about
Or fears to conjure in the mind
Sacred chants
Heard whispered in the dark
Watched for your shadow leaving behind
Hands of time
Wind in reverse
Mirrors reflect a lie
When you find yourself
Alone in the dark
You know you've been left behind
Down in the depths of despair
Is it laughter
Or lamenting that you hear?
A host of insanity all around
Sheer, long terror
Surrounds you standing there
Shackles of fear have you bound
Doors slam shut
And you fear no return
Many voices in your head
Spinning around
Find yourself
In the center of a circle
Something tugging at your soul
Pulling you down
Hands of time
Wind in reverse
Mirrors reflect a lie
When you find yourself
Alone in the dark
You know you've been left behind
Down in the depths of despair
Patience, pupil
Have you learned now any spells
And incantations from this life
Have you opened
Every door that's come to an end
Then ventured inside
Doors slam shut
And you fear no return
Many voices in your head
Spinning around
Find yourself
In the center of a circle
Something tugging at your soul
Pulling you down
Down in the depths of despair
