lyrics

Escape into the darkness;

I must break free from this cage.

Soulless eyes, they burn inside

With fear and anguished rage.

This place is full of hatred

And I must leave it behind.

Toxic breath and stinking death

Still linger in my mind.



When all the world is fast asleep,

I'll escape into the night.

I will sleep beneath the stars,

And when I wake, I'll see the light.

Tonight, I bite the hand that feeds me

Nightmares on a plate.

I will greet the waiting world,

Even if they come to hate me.



I try to think, but all the memories

Remaining are fire in my mind.

Stay away! The poison dripping

From your eyes is liquid Iodine.



Now, I run for shelter,

Seeking sweet respite.

My thoughts laid bare, I will not fare.

I have no strength to fight.

What use is this vessel,

This form of untapped might?

What use at all if I take the fall

And meet my end tonight?



Fire floods the blackest night;

Burn my eyes just with the sight.

I see the forest falling down

Right before my eyes.

A phantom burning from my past;

But I will not succumb so fast.

No element will hold me back,

And I will claim my prize.


“What you're experiencing is anxiety.”



I try to escape, but all the memories
Remaining are fire in my mind.

Stay away! The searing pain your
Presence brings is something I despise.
Now I can think. Despite the flames

That live inside, I feel like I'll be fine.

Stay away! My wounds are healing.

I don't need you, so keep your Iodine.
