Open the Gates

Build me up with empty promise

Just to watch me fall

You'll keep this deep inside of you

'Cause you never really knew me at all

Lost, I suffer through and through

With all the doubt that fills this room

Drown the questions in my mind

Blind myself within this time

Said you'd always be there

You neglect the way I feel

Should I bind you to my dark hold

Is this what makes you real?

Blind man's heart with tears and blood

Remind his scars, can't you see

I rip myself from you?

Open the gates

Let him find a way

Open the gates

Let him find his way

Underneath, I can't escape

The numbness burns in me

Can you sense the air so near?

When you take me to that blackened place

All my demons keep me locked underneath

Open the gates

Let him find a way

Open the gates

Let him find his way

Push me there

Wrap myself

From you

I know I slowly vanish

Between two worlds and you

Where you have a partner

Where I'm getting caught

Fading lights, open eyes

I've been waiting, take me away
