Mother my inner shadow cries out to you Insipid, worthless in your eyes Are tired the years of suffering I see the dying daylight fade to black Give me strength, bring me peace My innocence, I want it back Did I fall into this illusion? What has become? You said you’d bring me shelter You said you’d lead me to water You said you’d break the chains that bind me, you denied me You said you’d show me daylight, prove me the afterlife Lay my soul, cleanse me, unbind me Don’t deny me deliverance Father my inner sanctum hides within you Carry me a shell of man In you I seek salvation I trip into this illusion What has become? You said you’d bring me shelter You said you’d lead me to water You said you’d break the chains that bind me, you denied me You said you’d show me daylight, prove me the afterlife Lay my soul, cleanse me, unbind me Don’t deny me deliverance You said you’d bring me shelter and then you leave me
