[Intro]

Sorrow and regret, tormented mind swells

One with the darkness, pain like second skin

Forged by the calling of a parallel life

Where every being is not born to die

[Verse 1]

The voices in the distance, they call out for me

Yes, they call me by name

As the light drains from my eyes

And my memory dims

Following down the spiral

Still walking the earth

The ghost of every memory that I have left behind

Like sand, it runs through my fingers

Colder than time

With death's still gaze cast toward me

I am alive

Alive

[Verse 2]

Now I am pulling myself back out of the grave

In the days I am living, this is not a life

We weren't meant to be saved

I will be the one you see when you die

Burning in your mind just like the flame

I may have been breathing, I was never alive

So remember these words

I will be the one you see when you die

[Guitar Solo]

[Bridge]

Daylight returns slowly

[Interlude]

I'm losing sight

Of who I am in this madness

The candle's been burnt out

For what seems like forever

If there's no end

To life or death in this nightmare

Do we live forever?

[Pre-Chorus]

And with every last breath in my lungs

There is still hope for us here

In the mouth of madness

As the light drains from my eyes

And as my memory dims

Now I am alive

[Chorus]

In dreams of the ocean

Where space and time won't matter

In dreams of the daylight

I am alive

[Post-Chorus]

Death's gaze

I am alive

[Breakdown]

Watch every nightmare turn into a new reality

Mother, will I breathe again?

Mother, will I breathe again?

Mother, will I breathe again?

Mother, is this life all I have?

[Outro]

Mother

And in the end, the end is this life, just a vision

I will forget, mother?

And in the end, the end is this life, just a vision

I will forget, mother?

And in the end, the end is this life, just a vision

I will forget, mother?

And in the end, the end is this life, just a vision
