Shadows ever creeping forward, dancing by the candle flame
Whispering a sullen silence, strangling the swift light
Left to watch the future float along with the drifting smoke
These phantoms may grab me, but the passion seized me
Rising past their darkness, broken promises at their feet
Foregoing all doubt, tomorrow is all I can hope for
Living fast, never last, racing past, this truth I’ll cast
Waters rising above my head, storms blowing in
Latching onto my dreams, floating up and only up
Never giving in, staying driven, every moment livin’
Shine the flashlight, let it pierce into the shallow darkness
Revealing the unknown that I had never known
The cruelest, darkest mysteries, secrets I’d never seen
All hidden somewhere within me, within this flaming heart
