Lyrics

In the dwindling twilight time is unwinding, lines are blurred Under the guise of a child into your nightmare I've been lured Like a puppet, tied and hung up tightly bound Your strings I've been strung to, I dream that I'd run away from you if my feet could feel the ground Now I'm out of the woods, safe and sound as I board up the doors But once I'm in the clear, and free of all fear, I find that I'm hungry for more The hunt has begun, hold onto your hats, if it isn't knives, it's eyes in your back So whether or not you're friendly with rats, pretend you're a mouse in a house full of cats Pale is the prison they doomеd me to dwell With room for just one, but two in a cеll The dusk is upon us, I knew as it fell That darkness is honest, are you to yourself? With my thoughts are distorted and body dysmorphed into monstrous forms of the awfullest sorts We're locked up with dolls and their hollowed out corpses, all haunted by hunger, the omniscient force So often my reveries are littered with the debris of my hopes and dreams As we all grow to be old and bitter, a tale foretold in broken screens How blinding the glare, your mind is so weak I'd like you to share this nightmare with me I hide in my hood, not to show you my eyes I know that I'll fail with no coattail to ride Mannequin paired with marionette In dissonant discord, our deadly duet We're lost in a lullaby, slumbering away Where sins remain hidden, but rarely they stay It was only in my shadow that I'd finally found a friend 'Till the light that bound us let go and the devil took my hand As she closed my eyes, remind me once again What's the dreamer's lie? "Every nightmare has an end" (Beware the dreamer's lie, every nightmare has an end) (Or you'll be where the dreamers lie, some nightmares never end) I sleep like the dead, nonetheless I am lucid If dreams have a meaning, perhaps I should tune in To the signal that beckons, familiar it seems Be silent, you might see yourself in its beams A knife or a noose is with what you'll be met If you try to play nice and stick out your neck I thrive in the shadows, untrusting of light Be warned if you join me, it's just for a bite I'd rather be lost and lonely 'Cause friends aren't meant to last Thought you finally got to know me But you've only met the mask Sad is my dream where the grass is quite green Turned into a pasture of mesmerized sheep I'd count them, but why should I bother In the end they're all meant to be slaughtered It was only in my shadow that I'd finally found a friend 'Till the light that bound us let go and the devil took my hand As she closed my eyes remind me once again What's the dreamer's lie? "Every nightmare has an end" (Beware the dreamer's lie, every nightmare has an end) (Or you'll be where the dreamers lie, some nightmares never end) (Beware the dreamer's lie, every nightmare has an end) (Or you'll be where the dreamers lie, some nightmares never end)
