The Monster Within

**[Intro]** Cold rain falls On a city without a soul White lights burn But the darkness takes control I close my eyes But I still see it all The dead don't disappear They wait for you to fall **[Verse 1]** I woke up with a gun in my hand And a voice telling me to understand Every street is a memory Every shadow is haunting me I tried to wash the blood away But it follows me from yesterday There is no sleep, there is no peace The nightmare only grows when I breathe **[Pre-Chorus]** Something inside me Is calling my name I can't tell if I'm alive Or already insane **[Chorus]** I walk through the snow Where the dead never sleep I carry their voices They're buried too deep The darkness is calling It's pulling me down I came here for vengeance Now I'm lost in this town **[Verse 2]** Black wings circle above the night Red eyes watching from the lights I hear the whispers through the walls I see the faces when the darkness falls Was it the poison? Was it the pain? Was it the memories inside my brain? Every step takes me closer To the truth I don't want to know The deeper I go The colder it gets below **[Pre-Chorus]** Something inside me Is feeding the flame I can't tell if I'm hunting them Or becoming the same **[Chorus]** I walk through the snow Where the dead never sleep I carry their voices They're buried too deep The darkness is calling It's pulling me down I came here for vengeance Now I'm lost in this town **[Bridge]** I see the angels With blood on their wings I see the demons Wearing human faces They tell me to run They tell me to stay They tell me the truth Then they take it away Am I awake? Am I dreaming? Am I alive? Or am I bleeding? **[Breakdown]** No sleep No peace No god No release One shot One life One road Through the night I lost everything I had nothing left So let the darkness come **LET IT TAKE THE REST!** **[Final Chorus]** I walk through the snow Where the dead never sleep I carry their voices They're buried too deep The darkness is calling But I won't turn around If hell is beneath me I'll drag it back to the ground I walk through the snow With the blood on my hands I followed the nightmare Until I could understand There was no monster Waiting for me below **I WAS THE MONSTER ALL ALONG** **[Outro]** Cold rain falls The city disappears No more voices No more tears Just footsteps in the snow... And nothing waiting At the end of the road.
