Lyrics

I stepped inside without a word no permission sought
The door seemed wide a golden trap that I was surely caught in
I could've sworn I heard a voice a whisper in the hall
Saying I was welcome here before the shadows fall
Lured by that familiar scent the fragrance of a home
But forgetting in a heartbeat that I'm fated just to roam
This isn't mine it never was despite the warmth I feel
Just a phantom sanctuary that time was bound to steal
Broken glass upon the floor fragments of a ghost
I'm the one who loves the most but I'm an uninvited host
Every clock is racing fast gears I couldn't mend
Searching for a middle ground that's hiding 'round the bend
One foot in and one foot out trapped beside the gate
Is there any justice in the way we handle fate?
Like a Bombhead in the maze frozen in the white
Jack Torrance in the garden searching for the light
Oh the Shining in my veins is just a cold and bitter spark
I'm a king without a kingdom shivering in the dark
Ah-ah-ah shivering in the dark
There are pieces of me scattered littered on the tiles
Mirror shards that fail to reflect the distance of the miles
I've abandoned every watch that tried to dictate pace
But even moving slowly I can't find a breathing space
I want to lean out from that window see the view I've never known
Feel the vertigo once more before I'm turned to stone
But my heavy steps are clumsy I'll just break the floor again
Tracing every circle in this labyrinth of pain
Broken glass upon the floor fragments of a ghost
I'm the one who loves the most but I'm an uninvited host
Every clock is racing fast gears I couldn't mend
Searching for a middle ground that's hiding 'round the bend
One foot in and one foot out trapped beside the gate
Is there any justice in the way we handle fate?
Like a Bombhead in the maze frozen in the white
Jack Torrance in the garden searching for the light
Oh the Shining in my veins is just a cold and bitter spark
I'm a king without a kingdom shivering in the dark
Deleting every album won't erase the words I've said
The wind will carry every line I whispered in your bed
Chasing after racing clocks I've tried to run away
But I'm anchored to the garden where the icy shadows play
Neither in nor truly out a ghost upon the line
Waiting for the frost to cover everything that's mine
Broken glass upon the floor fragments of a ghost
I'm the one who loves the most but I'm an uninvited host
Every clock is racing fast gears I couldn't mend
Searching for a middle ground that's hiding 'round the bend
One foot in and one foot out trapped beside the gate
Is there any justice in the way we handle fate?
Like a Bombhead in the maze frozen in the white
Jack Torrance in the garden searching for the light
Oh the Shining in my veins is just a cold and bitter spark
I'm a king without a kingdom shivering in the dark
The dark! The dark! Yeah
Just a borderline
Not my place never was
Let the ice take me now
