By Shadows Thine Held |
| All their souls, they speak to me |
| Confessing every sin I never wanted to see |
| All their souls, they speak to me |
| Like razor blades, they cut away |
| At the strings that hold my heart |
| One more cut and it falls apart |
| One more cut and it falls apart |
| A hole in my chest where there should be a heart |
| I’d sell my soul just so death can take me back |
| By shadows I am held |
| Buried with the bodies of the past |
| All those words, I just can’t take them back |
| By shadows I am held |
| Buried with the bodies of the past |
| All their souls, they speak to me |
| Confessing every sin I never wanted to see |
| All their souls, they speak to me |
| There is a ghost just behind my eyes |
| No hands to move, no tongue to lie |
| Just a thought, meant just for me |
| No lungs to breathe, no eyes to see |
| It’s not my head and it’s not my heart |
| It has no face, just a voice in the dark |
| They cast their shadow but can never be seen |
| I hear their words but never see them speak |
| They cast their shadows but can never be seen |
| Never be seen |
| I’d sell my soul just so death can take me back |
| By shadows I am held |
| Buried with the bodies of the past |
| All those words, I just can’t take them back |
| By shadows I am held |
| Buried with the bodies of the past |
| Let this world fade to black |
| I dream in silence and sorrow |
| Untold nightmares of horrors unseen |
| I dream in silence and sorrow |
| Untold nightmares of horrors unseen |
| I swear I won’t see tomorrow |
| Let go and take these ghosts from me |
| Let go, take from these ghosts from me |
