[Intro] [orchestral strings and brass, driving double-bass drums] [operatic vocalizing] Ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah Ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah Ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah Ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah [Verse 1] [palm-muted distorted guitar, steady drum beat] The silence is a heavy shroud tonight I trace the cracks within the fading light A whisper calls my name from underneath the floor I lock the ghost outside but he's broken down the door In my breath creates a cloud against the glass Watching all the broken hours pass I'm paralyzing in this masquerade Afraid to see the mess that I have made [Chorus] [full orchestral arrangement, soaring vocals] Open my eyes and scream into the void Rebuild the pieces that the dark destroyed I am drowning in the shallow and the stray Secrets that the shadows promise they will keep Call my name and pull me from the grave [cymbal crashes] Don't let me fade away [Verse 2] [strings and driving rhythm guitar] The mirror holds a face I used to know Buried in the drift of winter snow I tried to be the angel you desired Walked with feet of lead into the fire Frozen in the space between the beats Haunted by the memory of defeat Of defeat [Chorus] [layered vocal harmonies, double-bass drumming] Open my eyes and scream into the void Rebuild the pieces that the dark destroyed I am drowning in the shallow and the stray Secrets that the shadows promise they will keep Call my name and pull me from the grave Don't let me fade away [Bridge] [heavy guitar riffs, brass stabs] I can feel it cold Taking hold I cannot breathe I cannot lie I'm waiting for the fear to die Wake me up! [Guitar Solo] [shredding electric guitar solo, rapid alternate picking, melodic bends] [Chorus] [maximum intensity, orchestral swells] Open my eyes and scream into the void Rebuild the pieces that the dark destroyed I am drowning in the shallow and the stray Secrets that the shadows promise they will keep Call my name and pull me from the grave Don't let me fade away [Outro] [orchestral strings fading] Away Away Away
