Why can't you see me?
How long must I be
Quivering in the shadows?
Oh, won't you free me?
This is my sole plea
Help me escape the gallows
The hatches are battened
Before I'm flattened
Struggling to catch my final breath
Day turns to nighttime
Brimming with fright, I'm
Wondering, will this end in death?
Life is so fleeting
Embrace my fragile being
The shroud encroaches ever closer
Like a coma
My senses slowly fade
The curtain is calling
Time to quit stalling
Or have you had a change of mind?
I've shown I'm worthy
Come on now, hurry
This lack of light has left me blind
Life is so fleeting
Embrace my fragile being
The shroud encroaches ever closer
Like a coma
My senses slowly fade
Oh, but once this nightmare's over
I will show them
Who's in control
In the end
Life is so fleeting
Embrace my fragile being
The shroud encroaches ever closer
Like a coma
My senses slowly fade
Oh, but once this nightmare's over
I will show them
Who's in control
In the end
