[Verse] A crack in the mirror shows my face Jagged shards blissfully awaiting my fate Voices whisper where silence falls Beneath the shadows my darkness calls [Chorus] Oh I am the vanguard and I am the foe My mind creates a tide I cannot control My heart beats loud yet the echoes don't fade A labyrinth of thoughts is where my destiny's laid [Verse 2] My reflection beckons and won’t look away Blurred edges distorted in shades of grey The light it flickers keeps teasing my soul I hold the gaze hoping my conscience won't go [Chorus] Oh I am the vanguard and I am the foe My mind creates a tide I cannot control My heart beats loud yet the echoes don't fade A labyrinth of thoughts is where my destiny's laid [Bridge] I close my eyes and hear the static hum Drums of a war that I have never won Each beat unravels a thread of my soul Every vestige of sanity being pulled in a hole [Outro] Oh I am the vanguard and I am the foe My mind creates a tide I cannot control My heart beats loud yet the echoes don't fade A labyrinth of thoughts, infinite, no escape.
