Lyrics

Reflections past, round me enfolda
love lost and breaking
a memory waning
those caged thoughts
now numb and cold
existence is draining
your heat, suffocating
Those smoldring eyes
on me once more
Their light once was warming
it etches me,burning
so self assured, I must endure
I'm through just retreating
I know now I'm seeking the night

You say I'll never leave
You tell me that I'll never
let you go
I won't be shackled by a love that's dead and gone
You think I need you now
But you will find I'm stronger
than you know
You'll never find me now
I'm chasing twilight shadows
from the sun

You say I'm weak
you think I'll bend
You tell me I'm falling
my name gently calling
That siren song, to lure me in
I might reconsider
but then I remember how

You say I'll never leave
You tell me that I'll never
let you go
I won't be shackled by a love that's dead and gone
You think I need you now
But you will find I'm stronger
than you know
Your broken spell can't blind my eyes
So save your liar's tears
Despite my darkest fears
I won't be swayed
Your poisoned words won't shake me after all you've done
And though your fires rage
I let the ashes fall and fade away You'll never find me now
I'm chasing twilight shadows

Breaking from this prison
I'll never tread this road again
I'm running from the fading light
Cause I know that I'll soon
find the dawn
