You're told that dreams aren't real That life is all that's true Alone, in your mind It will keep you up at night In the deathly minds It won't wash it away Shadows alive With the hopeless Hallowed by thy name The darkness Will never take me alive Same old lie Heard a hundred times Wake me The darkness Will never take me alive Same old lie Heard a hundred times Wake me up Slipping into the darkness You're held in your dreams Enslaved by the faceless Living deep within The clock strikes at 3 Now you're locked in tight Nothing you can do To get you past that line
