My Apocalypse

[Verse 1]
There's a place that I've found as far as I can see
This place lies within the depths of my dreams
In a garden surrounded by fire and trees
Through the smoke a silhouette I can barely see
There's a man with an axe standing in the rain
Looked me straight in my eye— this is what he had to say:

[Pre-Chorus]
"Never fall asleep— you won't wake up"
Destroy the guillotine before he does

[Chorus]
I walk with shadows. You have to find a better way
I walk with shadows. The questions I will never say
Hiding from the gallows. They keep me safe and sound
So I walk in shadows. The ways of burning down this house

[Post-Chorus]
End transmission: the satellites are down
I need an earthquake to shake this pity off the ground

[Verse 2]
Just don't trust these liars at the door. You have to find a better way
Kill the ones that have these answers for. The questions I will never say

[Pre-Chorus]
"Never fall asleep— you won't wake up"
Destroy the guillotine before he does

[Chorus]
I walk with shadows. You have to find a better way
I walk with shadows. The questions I will never say
Hiding from the gallows. They keep me safe and sound
So I walk in shadows. The ways of burning down this house

[Post-Chorus]
End transmission: the satellites are down
I need an earthquake to shake this pity off the ground

[Bridge]
All the vibrant colors I see
And the shades that fill the grey
Pain, the pain. Pain, the pain
Pain, the pain. Pain, the pain
Pain
Pain, the pain. Pain, the pain
Pain, the pain. Pain, the pain
Pain

[Chorus]
I walk with shadows. You have to find a better way
I walk with shadows. The questions I will never say
Hiding from the gallows. They keep me safe and sound
So I walk in shadows. The ways of burning down this house
