The Song I Wept

The past is the reflection, the future is the key.

VERSE I:

these castle walls

guards some things that

Have never yet seen

the light of day,

the light of day;

PRE-CHORUS:

As these walls build higher,

I run faster, oh oh oh;

As these walls build higher,

I run faster, no no noooo

CHORUS:

I run from this pain,

I run from the destruction,

I run from these tears,

I run from myself;

Verse II:

As this blighted heart,

destroys the Kingdom of Isolation;

I shall fall from this dark throne;

Stepping out of the destruction,

I finally see the light;

Yea I see myself.

I see the memories of who I used to be,

as I drown in the Lights

PRE-CHORUS:

As these walls build higher,

I run faster, oh oh oh;

As these walls build higher,

I run faster, no no noooo

CHORUS:

I run from this pain,

I run from the destruction,

I run from these tears,

I run from myself;

VERSE III:

I was Darkness, I am Light;

I was Hate, I am Love;

I was War, I am Peace;

These past mistakes paved the way

To what I've become.

OUTRO:

I found myself;

I found myself,

I found myself, yeaaaa

I AM ME!
