A scarlet burning through the sky While birds dance with a gentle breeze The night is knocking slow at the door And as the city locks it out I open up and let it in To ease this sense of loneliness Here in the dying sun Burning with the last rays I stand in front of my true self Watching me in the eyes I can see what's inside All that is wrong and my mistakes I'm alone, the air is dark and a voice in me is whispering While the day is fading out I can hear it much clearer I'm alone, the air is cold and I can't ignore what I've done The night won't obscure it away with the shades The lake that boils into the light The mountain as a giant stands This peaceful sight brings calm to my soul And as I breathe the sunset in The guilt trip heavily holds me down I blame myself for being alone Water that turns to ink In the moonlight that fades Doesn't reflects me anymore Tears that had turned to stars Sparkling beyond the clouds Too dense to see a feeble light I'm alone, the air is dark and a voice in me is whispering While the day is fading out I can hear it much clearer I'm alone, the air is cold and I can't ignore what I've done The night won't obscure it away with the shades Swallowing the dark around I still hold a breath inside To redeem and finally breathe freely Washed away but still in me Penetrated through my skin This guilt inside, it burns the air in my lungs I'm alone, the air is dark and a voice in me is whispering While the day is fading out I can hear it much clearer I'm alone, the air is cold and I can't ignore what I've done The night won't obscure it away with the shades The night won't obscure it away with the shades With the shades
