Dancing on the walls playful flickering And through colorless they cheer me with their show There's no day or night, there's no sound of life Yet I'm not alone for the darkness walks with me Leave me safe to be In a place where there's no need to see Where the shadows are so real And the coldness that I feel reminds me I'm alive Good intent a Rescue plan Police? A priest? A 'yes you can bless you' man? Drag me out to show me the way Awaken me to light of day hear you say "This is all for you my friend Your loneliness has come to end we were sent!" Stabbing flash it's shocking me Intruding light laughs mocking me mocking me But I admit at times if I confess my crimes A Daphne would be nice All the light not even the sun can blaze so bright as to Burn away the cold of the dark or keep me company This light cannot melt what's inside The cold reminds me I'm alive Please leave me to myself The cold reminds me I'm alive
"How have you lived for all these years all by yourself? We'll drag you out, show you the way Awaken you to light of day!" Heard them say "This is all for you, old man Your loneliness has come to an end!" A stabbing flash is shocking me, mocking me, mocking me No don't pity me or just think me mad Despite your entourage we know it's you that's all alone I know that can't be true to someone like you You're unwelcome here. You trespa** with your light Leave me safe to be In a place where there's no need to see Where the shadows are so real And the coldness that I feel reminds me I'm alive "All the love - the love of the world Could ever change his heart or his mind Combined with all the light of the sun He chooses darkness for he is blind He wants no light he'll never see The darkness is his legacy We'll leave him to himself! The cold can keep him company!" And so he'll live all of his years all by himself
