you wake up to the screaming darkness you brave the murk that moves like a bat in the night or an afflatus divine you re on of those terminal illusions they re looking through you they don t care what s inside if you laugh while you die you re spinning your cocoon now is it really you or is it the expectation that surrounds you choking lonely and invisible we run fade away walls they cave in on you i m the ground that s gonna open light of day drove you out to the gloom i m the ravenblack that s there for you determination called your name you feel like a template screened onto a wall of concrete by a social elite you dwell on thoughts of being elswhere receive the blessing of those roads in the night there s no place in the light for those castels in the sky you sit and wonder why the ashen hand of reason wraps its cloak around your dream admonitory fingers you fade away walls they cave in on you i m the ground that s gonna open light of day drove you out to the gloom i m the ravenblack that s there for you  they say you ve gotta want it on the treadmill you gotta want it badly you re predestined to be what their eyes wanna see a terminated fire fade away walls they cave in on you i m the ground that s gonna open the light of day drove you out to the gloom i m the ravenblack that s there for you
