I know I shouldn't travel alone
God knows what evil lurks in these shadows
Ahead darkness is the only thing I can see
Is this truly my chosen path
Is this my release

This night has cast a spell on me
So pure and beautiful it seems
To drown in misery for eternity
What a twisted fantasy

I can feel how deep within
The demon begins to poison me
Its venomous claws digging into my soul
With its touch burning, cold, gone will be the hope
The dreams I'd created will exist no more
Is this truly my chosen path
Is this my release

Time crawls and still I remain
Kingdoms fall and lonely I wait
In search of truth a world so strange I find
From my unconscious in a dark reverie

Thereupon an old mirror I came
Staring back in horror was her face so grave
Dreamlike but so real what have I become
So frightened but I know I must not run

I search and I try but can't find myself
From this chaos of nothingness, infinite emptiness
In her lifeless eyes only a bottomless dark well
So tall the walls of this macabre hell
And I should know, I built them myself...

Beginning to forget who I am and what I was
All that remains is a deep feeling of loss
So desperate but I know I must not run
If this is truly what I wanted
I was so damn lost

And so forever I will travel alone
Knowing every evil that lurks in these shadows
All around darkness is the only thing I can see
This is my chosen path
From which I cannot stray
