I Return

[Swano]

Day and night just come and go

I hate that life is so deceiving

I feel this urge to turn away

From all the sadness and grieving

I find my way back to the place where we were parted

All I hear is my heart pounding inside

I'm so afraid of what I'll see when I return

There's a part of me that needs to say goodbye

Until we meet again

Now and then he reappears

In my dreams

In my illusions

Pointing out the chosen path

It feels so real

Am I really dreaming?

Soon I'll see what time has done to my creation

Hell on Earth is just a few steps away

The Sun is hiding

I am in the heart of darkness

I'm closing in on the godforsaken tree

The moment I defy the pain

Is here again, in another way

All the fear in my life

Is erased from my soul

I never knew that my fantasies

Could be oh so close to reality

And what I see here right now

Is so hard to believe

I see the rope, my friend is gone

His body's nowhere to be found

I hear him whisper in the wind

I hear him calling out my name

Am I going insane?

The moment I defy the fear

Is here again, I can feel he's near

All the fear in my life

Have returned to my soul

I never knew that my fantasies

Could be oh so close to reality

And what I'm hearing right now

Is so hard to believe
