Empty Shell

Laughter fills the air
I cannot speak, I can't remember
What made me walk this way
What made me leave my dreams behind

I try to calm myself
I lie to me, has worked before
But terror fills my soul
It's when I think of you
That she comes for me

Laughter fills the air
I try to think, try to explain
The roads of life have ended
An empty shell is what's left of me

The lights are growing dim
I close my eyes
Need to be alone
But terror fills my soul
Now that i speak of you
Will you come to me?

Lives in me
Feeds from me
Grows in me
Drawing power

Speaks with me
Sleeps with me
Dies with me
Growing stronger

Fading away
All that's life is leaving me
Need my thoughts
Need my sleep to stay awake
Cannot think
Cannot feel
I can't go on

An empty shell is left of me
