Nightfall

As I walk into the arms of the night
I hear the howling, I hear it inside
It makes me wonder what I would do
if they would stop trying to keep me from you

I long to open the door to the past
but somehow I shiver
I can't start over, the scars will last
Only an innocent child could live there

Mirrors of sadness, a picture pale and clean
I dwell in madness, a way out unseen
I couldn't recognize an angel by my side
'cause memories made me numb and
feelings made me blind

Standing before a forgotten window
I stare and I can feel the wind blow
A candle flickering on a gentle breeze
All feels so calm, I can feel the ease

Mirrors of sadness, a picture pale and clean
I dwell in madness, a way out unseen
I couldn't recognize a nightfall in your eyes
'cause memories made me numb and
feelings made me blind

Shut the door, shut down the past
I don't want to know my future is fading fast
Open my heart, open up the day
My life is now, and I won't run away
