Nightfall

Nightfall, welcoming the wraith again
Molding darkness into form
(Reigning as a sovereign of the mind)
All that weight of bearing nothing
Encouraged by a darkened night
(Deafened by the heartbeats of the blind)

Where memories should thrive
And soar through the open skies
Between now and then
A desolate place, through darkness allowed to die
Shrouding the why

Caught in between the nights
Finding refuge in the light
A prisoner of hollow tomorrows
Planning for the great escape
Yearning far beyond the drape
Discerning beginning from end

Here's a mind in need of healing
Plain to see but out of view
(Hiding from the promises of time)
Bearing the pain while all for nothing
Easier than letting go
(Battered by the echoes of his prime)

All twisted inside, any purpose left far behind
Concealing the how

Caught in between the nights
Finding refuge in the light
A prisoner of hollow tomorrows
Planning for the great escape
Yearning far beyond the drape
Discerning beginning from end

The halls of the damned
The towering walls and the darkness that dwells
Like a moth to a flame bound to burn
Unable to part with the darkest of night

Then graced by the light
Tearing the veil apart
That shift in the air that makes it all just go away

Caught in between the nights
Finding refuge in the light
A prisoner of hollow tomorrows
Planning for the great escape
Yearning far beyond the drape
Discerning beginning from end

Caught in between the nights
(Finding refuge in the light)
Planning for the great escape
(Yearning far beyond the drape) yeah
