intro
What did you think you were playing with the shadows of your mind?
(What did you think you were playing with the shadows of your mind?)
What is it you think you see from the sides of your mind?
(What is it you think you see from the sides of your mind?)
verse
Oh well the nights began harder and harder as the time slowly flied
(Well the nights began harder and harder as the time slowly flied)
And the memories repeated 'til all of your dreams made you cry
(The memories repeated 'til all of your dreams made you cry)
Forced down, holding back your tears
Charging closer to the deadly desire! (Desire)
You are required! (Required)
Your soul's about to meet it's master, it's about to expire
Maybe it's the end you seek, but it results in defeat
Unleash the nightmare inside!
pre-chorus
Through the battlefield another day to die, we go
Through every little shadow we proceed
Salute you 'til we sit and survive
We're marching onward to the nightmare!
chorus
What will you do when the lights go down?
When will the chosen turn around?
Summon the silence and wear your crown
Holding onto your own dreams, escape denied
So now you charge, the end will now rise!
verse
What did you think of the darkness taking over your demise?
(What did you think of the darkness taking over your demise?)
What was it you thought you saw from the tears on your eyes?
(What was it you thought you saw from the tears on your eyes?)
Oh well the nights would get louder and louder and corrode your disguise
(Well the nights would get louder and louder and corrode your disguise)
And the rest began to feed on your soul as you said your goodbyes
(And the rest began to feed on your soul as you said your goodbyes)
verse
Forced down, down below the surface
Your blood shot eyes divide! (Divide)
Your time is nigh! (Is nigh)
Your door's about to be explosive and you're about to expire
Maybe it's the light you need, but all that's left is defeat
Unleash the nightmare inside!
pre-chorus
Through the battlefield another day to die, we go
Through every little shadow we proceed
Salute you 'til we sit and survive
We're marching onward to the nightmare!
chorus
What will you do when the lights go down?
When will the chosen turn around?
Summon the silence and wear your crown
Holding onto your own dreams, escape denied
So now you charge, the end will now rise!
bridge
Run for your life! (Run for your life)
Run through the shining gates! (Run through the shining gates)
Defend yourself! (Defend yourself)
With every move you take! (With every move you take)
Gather your courage and strengthen your mind! (Strengthen your mind)
Save every tear you shed from mankind! (From mankind)
Let them know that you are free!
Forced down, down for far too long
chorus
What will you do when the lights go down?
When will the chosen turn around?
Summon the silence and wear your crown
Holding onto your own dreams, escape denied
So now you charge, the end will now rise!
