Sonata Arctica - They Follow lyrics

I walk with the crowd, alone, Unseen, or am I imagining? it's easy keep hiding at home Still healing I teach myself how to stay calm When they wish to behold me They may, take and divide my time The secret, no one told me... Like creatures of the night, they follow... Bearing the wrong side Is hard for me sometimes This need I still can recognize To swim in the oceans of vanity Some of us enjoy the rain Choir: and thunder For me all the shadows are bright I'm burning in the starlight and I Hope to feel light as a kite And fly towards the twilight of my life Like creatures of the night, they follow... Bearing the wrong side Is hard for me sometimes And now they have disappointed my broken heart I'm dancing, they're demanding The unknown and innocent days are gone Taken without asking Safe, further away, I'll disappear like a mountain without a trace They tied a knot on my life It gets tighter when I try to hide. "They live like the vultures, for a filthy anecdote They go thru my bones to find just one odd note I welcomed them kindly, thus they have the right To leave me in darkness with my shattered heart" A face of a newly wedded clown Doesn't offer you the high Now you're lower than the poor souls you feed Built the walls out of silence I will not be taken there anymore What is wrong with your eyes? Sad for the right reasons? I'll show you the ashes of life No empathy behind your eyes Sleeping like an angel every night I don't feel Safe, Can't disappear without getting my last embrace They tied a knot on my life It gets tighter when I try to hide. Safe, further away, Can't disappear without getting my last embrace Once the time finally comes Will they dig me up from my unmarked grave?
