Darkness wraps her arms
Around the fading day
Like an outcast, as it seems
Begging him to stay
Swallowing the rays of light
Before the curtain falls
Haunted by uncertainty
Of what the future holds

I don't know where I come from
I don't know where to go
On a never ending journey
Through the turmoil of my soul
In the labyrinth of sorrows anxiety unfolds
The darkness that surrounds me
Is the long forgotten friend who's coming home

Slowly, the sun unveils
Her light in shades of red
Building effigies of shadows
Barely born already dead
On her throne she weaves the burden
For another day
Before she's taking leave
To dwell in solitude again

When I wake up in the darkness
From the numbness of my dream
In the gloom of mournful shadows
Things are never what they seem
As I'm longing for compassion
In the twilight between night and day
My wishes and my memories
Seem to wilt, to fade way
