The Fear of Fear

I feel alive again Started with the fear of falling Into an hourglass Voices in the void are calling Wrap me in your arms Waterfalls, endless as they drag me down into the dark Of it all, can your heaven help me? Is this the end or is this the beginning? There are stranger things I've learned on the outside Separated by an open door I find it hard to reach the end of my timeline Salivating 'cause I wanted more Is this the end or is this the beginning? Am I allowed again To call out what I need to hear? To be a conduit Conditioned by the fear of fear? Wrap me in your arms (Waterfalls, endless as they drag me) Down into the dark (Of it all, can your heaven help me?) Is this what you want me to be? Perfect and clean Float on a temporary Empire built in a day to throw it away And now I can tell you, there are Stranger things I've learned on the outside Separated by an open door I find it hard to reach the end of my timeline Salivating 'cause I wanted more Is this the end or is this the beginning? I know where I wanna go, but it's too close And it's too late this time I know where I wanna go, but it's too close And it's too late this time There are stranger things I've learned on the outside Separated by an open door I find it hard to reach the end of my timeline Salivating 'cause I wanted more Is this the end or is this the beginning? Ooh-ooh, is this the end or is this the beginning? Ooh-ooh, is this the end or is this the beginning?

Innocence is a game that I have lost I purify myself in the black of a velvet sky I look behind myself in the back of an angel's eye Mirror lies, angel eyes A vision of despair, crystallized I’m trying to keep it Any sense of the frame that I have lost At the door where I leave it Tributary of pain I left to rot Take me (Take me) Flowing under my skin, I lock it up Break me (Break me) Innocence is a gamе that I have lost A vision of despair, crystallized I know whеre I wanna go, but the body is too close Take a piece of my history, now it's too late to repose This time I break the mirror when I die The hourglass inside my mind Turn it once to touch the sky Scouring my life I'm trying to keep it Any sense of the frame that I have lost At the door where I leave it Tributary of pain I left to rot Take me (Take me) Flowing under my skin, I lock it up Break me (Break me) Innocence is a game that I have lost Innocence is a game that I have lost

This is the final time I'm wakin' up Inside a dream that doesn't break enough Of the soul that I once was In the light I once loved I can see it shining through the trees A reflection of a crimson key And I hesitate to feel something In the presence of a cold Emotional vampire Invited inside I dream I die Hidden from the light You wanna cover me in ultraviolet To a river flowing back in time Dream I die Dream I die If you can meet me in another life and Wе can burn into the velvet sky Drеam I die Dream I die I can feel, the end is haunting me Mirror image staring back Into a thousand lifetimes Fearing what the light finds I can see it shining through the trees A reflection of a crimson key And I hesitate to feel something 'Cause I don't belong here You wanna cover me in ultraviolet To a river flowing back in time Dream I die Dream I die If you can meet me in another life and We can burn into the velvet sky Dream I die Dream I die You know where you want to go (Dream I die) Never too close (Dream I die) Never too late (Dream I die) There's always time (Dream I die) Dream I die
