Lyrics
Taken by a shadow Alone in my night Your curse is my silence Will I ever again see the light Invading my senses Stealing my soul You're the edge of a dagger As I feel this nightmare unfold Oh, I've looked in To the eyes of a stranger I've seen danger without a disguise Marked by the shame of a certain surrender Forever to live in these lies Now how many times will I cry in the dark And pray my scars to conceal And how will you know that I've been torn apart A child unable to heal Because I've looked in To the eyes of a stranger Felt their fire as they've taken me down Forsaken by fate Deserted of mercy Sealed by the seeds they have sown Eclipsed by the moment my innocence died A blinding storm that lives deep inside Lost in the visions that stain what I see I'm endlessly searching for me Possessed by my dreams These wicked illusions Taking me over Never letting me go Trapped by the pain that leads me to sorrow The angels of heaven will know That I've looked in To the eyes of a stranger Followed the mirror As it crashed to the floor Caught in a world Of shattered compassion Don't know what I'm suffering for Yes I've looked in To the eyes of a stranger Discovered a secret Secluded by time Now I see the future before me The stranger's eyes are like mine
