Between Eternities of Darkness

Autumn came with a chance to start anew And I've found us escape from sorrow But it's hidden: The path we choose can lead to dark or light Anticipating a way to bring us from this night Small town talk and the prying eye before Be replaced by a smile and open dors Is it futile to dream a place where you will never meet more disapproval? I dream, my child, that you'll be free Travel far to find a home The road is leading into the unknown Travel far -- don't look back This time we're stepping off the beaten track You were nervous to leave but I must stay "They'd just laugh. You can't come. It's the only way." Now I'm waiting for you to tell me school was all okay If it's working -- My plan to take us far away Travel far to find a home The road is leading into the unknown Travel far -- don't look back This time we're stepping off the beaten track But you came home in tears Everything was just the same Kids are cruel, noone sees Not until they place the balme Was this the dream I dreamed? Travel far Find a home The road takes us into the unknown This road takes us into the unknown Travel far to find a home The road is leading into the unknown Travel far -- don't look back This time we're stepping off the beaten track Into the unknown

Here I am incarcerated The doors are locked or slam shut in my face One more day to be degraded Forever, forever a disgrace It's killing me but noone sees Your care just drags me down The move's a disaster Did you think that it would stop me from messing up? A new school, the same peers, the same teachers The cycle starts again and never stops Will the horrors remain with me forever? Can the part that I play be cut? The face of the jester He smiles no matter if they mock his every word And words can't hurt but still they do The fate of the jester The fate of this crying clown Your silence is part of the torture All the words amiss, lacking, can't be found I don't know if I can turn the corner And stop us both from falling to the ground Will the horrors remain with me forever? Can the part that I play be cut? The face of a jester ... Id you'd know how I tried would you blame me? I try to be like them, adapt and play their game The part is hard and the acting is violent I lose myself, I don't know if I can stay the same Will the horrors remain with me forever? Can the part that I play be cut? The face of a jester ...

Whatever I have tried has made no difference They told me to sit and I sat for a while Perhaps there's something wrong with me but Noone helps me, noone seems to see the turmoil Boiling in me I cut the morning class and in detention I made a friend who is nothing like me A door was opened and I gladly Entered darkness, swallowed what they said Would finally set me free Down, down, down I go Down, down, down to the floor Down, down, down to the bottom, the bottom of my soul When the morning came And the nightmare was but forgotten It's all the same With a life in fear When morning came And this nightmare was but forgotten It's all the same again All the same again Noone helps me, noone seems to see the turmoil Boiling me Down, down, down I go Down, down, down to the floor Down, down, down to the bottom, the bottom of my soul And all the joy I knew is gone and so are all your dreams We were trying but failed again since life is never fair Always trying no matter if the odds were never there And all the joy I knew is gone and dead is mother's dream

If tonight I'll follow through maybe I'll find a meaning to my life But the dark within deceive me and twists my mind Can I conjur strength enough to be like them he hunters of the night The self-proclaimed directors of the fight Heal me, free me, see me This time I'm going to stay with you and give in to the pull of the undertow No fears hold me back I will attack just like you and fall prey to the undertow Through the darkness we will move and we'll perform our show to anyone And my part becomes myself and I lose y mind Oh, the ease with which we hurt the ones that fail the standards we uphold Am I one of them when this theater scares me so? This time I'm going to stay with you and give in to the pull of the undertow No fears hold me back I will attack just like you and fall prey to the undertow I feel the pull I will fall prey Will I be saved by the undertow? When it's over and I'm home again You're waiting, you're crying Your sorrow haunts me This time I'm going to stay with you and escape from the pull of the undertow Your tears - can they save me from the black unrelenting pull of the undertow?

The night you came into this world I couldn't understand the change My life transformed and there was light The briefest glimpse of hope that lit my sky Take me from this shadow world Lead me to a place that we'll call home Save me from this shadow world Take me home But life must change you're leaving now To places I can't follow you And it hurts me so to see you leave Embarking on a journey on your own Take me from this shadow world Lead me to a place that we'll call home Save me from this shadow world Take me home My life transformed -- you were my light Shining in the darkness of mu nights Take me from this shadow world Lead me to a place that we'll call home Save me from this shadow world Take me home

You'd allow me to fail and you said that's okay once in a while But I only show you my weakness to buy us some more time Is there meaning to make from our failures Or tears that we have cried? I will try once again -- will I fail as I tend to do? I can't heal you Can we repair this life? It's hidden, hidden Can we escape the vice? It's hidden, hidden Will we be able to make true your dream for us? That is hidden Every morning I smile and I tell you things will be just fine In the evening you I do it again, I pretend and feed this life I will try one more time but I'll fail as I always do I can't heal you Can we repair this life? It's hidden, hidden Can we escape the vice? It's hidden, hidden Will we be able to make true your dream for us? That is hidden Is there meaning to make when today is the day that came before? It's a life on repeat, I can't beat it -- I can't win this war Who can repair this life? When will you realize it's hidden? Will we be able to make true your dream for us? That is hidden

I look out the windows of this home abandoned Somewhere out of reach for me are you and your dreams I never wanted this pain in your life Where's the strength I need to bring you home back to me Come back to me Maybe some day you'll be able to hear me Calling your name Will you listen this time? Calling in vain for your salvation Will you survive? Every morning I'm afraid that you will be missing And your bed is empty, made and cold I can't control you, your life's yours just as your destiny Calling your name Will you listen this time? Calling in vain for your salvation Will you survive?

I hide the pain from the torturers I call friends And the ones that re my foes Will never guess the way I'm feeling Leaving behind me my hopes and my dreams And you to remember me The child that once was free All the times you've seen me fall And fail no matter how I tried The beating carried on forever I hope that you'll stay strong And life will give meaning to you I know that the road I'm on won't take me home Cursing the day I was born But not you or the dream that's caving in It's a fight I'll never win All the times you've seen me fall And fail no matter how I tried The beating carried on forever I hope that you'll stay strong And life will give meaning to you I know that the road I'm on won't take me home

The call just came it aid the sun won't rise again Am I the one to blame? Now I'll never know About the hurricane That swept my child away About the hidden pain That stole him from home The officers came to hear me 10.45, close to home, but far too late None his friends had seen it Noone stayed beside him A bullet sealed his fate Paying the price for belonging And finding a place where he's needed and someone Not just the loner or the jester Or the fool without a home End the nightmare Stop this life on the run Now his sorrows and sadness are gone Now his nightmare and my dream about us are gone Where can I go now? Where is a meaning in this pain? And go on living Always knowing That I'll never see him smile again End the nightmare Stop this life on the run Now his sorrows and sadness are gone Now his nightmare and my dream about us are gone I see him lying there If I could I'd take his place Was he crying crying there 'Cause I'm crying here End the nightmare

If there was a way to turn back time And make things right I would give me every moment, every beat of my heart I'd give my life What I know today is what I've learned By a thousand and more mistakes What does it take to find a way From the penance I do each day? Let me find escape Let me find a way To a place where I can go An escape from this hell I must say farewell to the dream I'll never know And the hope that was you (I must say farewell) Will the day return when I when I can see There was beauty in you and me? Days of smiles and laughter and this dream Slowly fading, it's ceased to be Let me find escape Let me find a way To a place where I can go An escape from this hell I must say farewell to the dream I'll never know And the hope that was you (I must say farewell) As my life moves on a while unknown You are here and forever gone Forever gone but still you're near In my dream your are always here
