Tell me this is real

Not the lies of a shadowed dream

If I wake are the wounds still deep?

Your embers ignite and engulf me

Led by the words you weave

I give up on what I perceived

To be true and now I'll be

Consumed at your hands

Overthrow me

Can I choose to leave the dark

It's home to me

The past won't let me leave unscathed

Out of spite dragging

Long nails across my skin

I'll face each night apart along and longing

Until we meet

Tell me this is real

Not the lies of a shadowed dream

If I wake are the wounds still deep?

Your embers ignite and engulf me

Led by the words you weave

I give up on what I perceived

To be true and now I'll be

Consumed at your hands

Overthrow me

Please convince me

Is the truth concealed?

Alight your embers ignite and engulf me

The poison seeps

What can you see?

Gladly consumed at your hands

Overthrow me

There are days when sorrow threatens to drown me

And here at the waters edge I'd lay down my life for you

Captivated I'll remain enslaved I knew...

Our paths were crossed

One story through and through

Tell me this is real (please convince me)

Not the lies of a shadowed dream (is the truth concealed)

If I wake are the wounds still deep?

(Alight) your embers ignite and engulf me

Led by the words you weave (the poison seeps)

I give up on what I perceived (what can you see?)

To be true and now I'll be

(Gladly) consumed at your hands

Overthrow me
