Dwell in the Shadows

I dwell in the shadows of the past life

And I welcome you to try

To pull my thoughts to the outside

Introverted, am I supposed to be a man

That doesn’t hold it back

I don’t need the spotlight

All I need is to be the man I know I am

I dwell in the shadows of a past life

And I never thought my words

Would change the lives of the mentally disturbed

It’s insane to me, I help lyrically

It seems, you’re more fucked up than me

But that’s who we are

Mass produced psychos with a million scars

That’s who we will be

And you’re the ones that made me

Don’t ever change

We are who we are and it should remain the same

If you don’t want to dwell in the light

Then dwell in the shadows with me

I am a ghost

They never see the side I hate the most

Blackened by the outside

I’m fighting a rising tide

I’m not afraid, this is the part of my life

That has made me who I am

And what I am is a tortured soul helping them

To see the light

I am a voice for the people

To relate to my hate

But I’ll always dwell in the shadows

Until you call for me

They will call us evil, forever they’ll shun

But just call my name

And I’ll take their tongues

This blade cuts deeper than flesh

It cuts down to the soul

As we dwell in the shadows

I am your voice for them to hear

I am your thoughts, I am your fears

We are one and we are all

As we dwell in the shadows

I never thought I could hold on

Or help anyone to get out of the darkness

And stop them from a suicide

I know when you’re lost it’s hard to find

Any peace for your mind

Let me be your voice

And hold the balance of mankind

May be all find our way

And stop us from self-destructing

If that day still comes

I’ll die the man I always was
