As I close my eyes
All I see is sorrow
Hold them shut to keep it in
Suffer till tomorrow
Take the staircase to my mind
Knock upon the door
Entrance to this horrorscape
Pain and so much more
And I
Walk right through
The door
Fall into
The hole
I can't wake from these
Evil dreams
As I lay here, dead asleep
I feel the darkness coming
Creeping closer, with its claws
I hear the nightmare calling
"Keep your eyes closed, Or have them wide
None of that will matter
Malus somnium I am named
I have you on my platter"
And I
Walk right through
The door
Fall into
The hole
I can't wake from these
Evil dreams
Blind my eyes
Blind my eyes
I fool the world wearing this disguise
In my mind
In my mind
I hold the cure for all mankind
You try so hard
You try so hard
To believe in a saviors heart
But in the end
In the end
You end up on a slavers chart
I look inside myself
I'll tell you what I see
A man turned into stone
Thrown into the endless sea
Of torment, pain, and sorrow
A tide of sin washes over me
I try but I will never
Be free of these evil dreams
