When you leave the Foundation

The air still tastes like yesterday My team is stuck, where I left them They recruited others, but they won’t stay The Dark Foundation - you won't forget that hell! Hannah's ghost sits quiet on the chair Like she’s still waiting to be seen and heard I talk to her in this bad dream... In every nightmare, I still scream! She looks at me like I’m a home to be destroyed Windows are broken, wind keeps telling creepy jokes! [Chorus] When I go, she’ll follow me slow Like bad memories in my shadow The Dark Foundation will never change, It can only get worse or - hopefully - stay the same... ’Cause I don’t know how to get rid of Hannah's name And if you leave, It stays inside your head It will never disappear - the Dark Foundation from our bad dream Her heart is cold, her soul untouched The Dark Foundation is run by liars I see her face in everything .... The trash, the dust, the dying flowers Her whispers sound like thunder rolls Her silence never brings us peace My whole team drowns inside that storm I must find a way to help them find release Must find the light that we can follow Be free of the Dark Foundation's hollow [Chorus] When I go, she’ll follow me slow Like bad memories in my shadow The Dark Foundation will never change, It can only get worse or - hopefully - stay the same... ’Cause I don’t know how to get rid of Hannah's name And if you leave, It stays inside your head It will never disappear - the Dark Foundation from our bad dream [Bridge] I miss my team, left in that dark place I fear they'll all drown in this madness And every message sounds like proof That there's no hope left for our group One day you’ll finally get another job And see Hannah's ghost behind the door You’ll feel a pull you can’t explain Then keep resisting, please - don't fail! And I’ll still wait when you leave that place In the soft collapse of what we were back there Manipulated, gaslit and destroyed Still staring into the abyss and screaming to the void [Outro] When I go, she’ll follow me slow… Unless you leave, that void will only grow [Chorus] When I go, she’ll follow me slow Like bad memories in my shadow The Dark Foundation will never change, It can only get worse or - hopefully - stay the same... ’Cause I don’t know how to get rid of Hannah's name And if you leave, It stays inside your head It will never disappear - the Dark Foundation from our bad dream and Hannah - its creepy Queen
