Shadows

Nightmares and white lies
Shadows behind my eyes
The beast within leaves me terrified
I've tried to let it fade
The monster I've made
But it's creeping in from all sides

I'm still looking for the truth
Still hoping to find you
Somehow I've got to find what's right
Scared I will run away
I'm losing hope today
I can't tell the shadows from the light

Secrets and darkness
I can't escape this
Disease eating at my mind
The untamed side of me
My own enemy
I hold in a prison inside

I'm still looking for the truth
Still hoping to find you
Somehow I've got to find what's right
Scared I will run away
I'm losing hope today
I can't tell the shadows from the light

Watching, waiting, lights are fading
Loving, hating, words degrading
I can't fight the shadows within me
Feeling hopeless, chaos rising
Pain sets in as a part of me is dying
My soul has grown too dark to see

I'm still looking for the truth
Still hoping to find you
Somehow I've got to find what's right
Scared I will run away
I'm losing hope today
I can't tell the shadows from the light
