Is that a voice calling me softly ?
Nothing in here is quite how it seems
Is that a whispers touch or my fear ?
Am I awake or lost in old dreams

Everything's so cold, the air is so still
There should be nothing here to see
Is this a warning, like in the black book ?
There can be no-one else but me

I see a darker shade of darkness
I see a shadow hide in the lie
I feel a suffocating tension
Within a terrible desire

Everything's so cold, the air is so still
There should be nothing here to fear
But I hear breathing, a child's laughter
Can any part of this be real ?

Everything I work for
Everything I long for is always just too far
Everything I hope for never comes to me
Everything I bleed for burns a scar on me
Everything I fight for leaves a bitter taste
Everything I cry for laughs into my face
Everything I scream for barely knows my name
Everything I'd die for will die just the same
In here with me

Is this the truth of your forgiveness ?
Are you the stranger stood at my door ?
Are you the end of things come calling ?
Are you the asnswer that I've wished for ?

Everything's so cold, the air is so still
And there is nothing here but me
If I belong here and this is mercy
Then there's no place I'd rather be

Everything I worked for
Everything I longed for was always just too far
Everything I hoped for never came to me
Everything I bled for burned a scar on me
Everything I fought for left a bitter taste
Everything I cried for laughed into my face
Everything I screamed for barely knew my name
Everything I died for died just the same
In here, with me
