lyrics

I can feel it in the night:
A creeping mischief up my cold spine.
A horse-drawn specter bathed in pale light
Nipping at my heels.

I can feel it in the breeze.
Pervasive crackling of the leaves
Emanating through the trees
Into a tainted soul.

When I find myself blinded to sunshine,
My shadow consumes all of me.
Derived and thriving in a hive confined
By evasive morality.

Slowly riding through the haze.
An invitation to malaise.
A selfless station set ablaze
By a worried mind.

When I find myself blinded to sunshine,
My shadow consumes all of me.
Derived and thriving in a hive confined
By evasive morality.

When I find myself blinded to sunshine,
My shadow consumes all of me.
Derived and thriving in a hive confined
By evasive morality.

Cannot postpone or condone my dissection.
Arms pinned, eyes open wide, legs tied too tight.
If the procedure reveals my confessions,
I'll see you on the other side....

When I find myself blinded to sunshine,
My shadow consumes all of me.
Derived and thriving in a hive confined
By evasive morality.
