burn the past
once again
and again
fighting battles real and metaphysical
chasing the monsters away
before you wake
Breaking the chains that bind
to the destructive patterns that repeat
Somewhere between freedom and prison
built in your mind
Traded eagle wings for carrion flight
since freedom wasn't free, and a burden
to a place called the Shadowland
The land of ghosts
a parallel universe the phoenix in reverse
falling to ashes was my curse
In the forest of shadows where vampires exist
a place dividing dream from nightmare
the place between a whisper and a scream
a kiss and a cut
where pleasure is pain
The land of in betweens
trapped in the cosmic axis doorways entering the Multiverse
Trapped between here and there
caught between a prayer and a curse
between hunter and prey
laughter and sorrow
baptism and sin
union and seperation
between light and dark
earth and sky
silence and sound
The place between love and hate
insanity and genius
logic and illusion
You hear between truth and lies
taste the color between sunrise and sunset
the feeling between courage and fear
the force between positive and negative
The place between Blinding Pristine White
and Deepest Darkest Black
The perfect shade of Gray
Existing on the edge of blessed and cursed
the place between myth and legend
a world of shadows and madness
where you fall before regeneration
the zone between angels and demons
between somewhere and nowhere
X marks the spot: You are Here
Lies the color of your soul
a mixture of spirit and flesh
here lies the answers that are within you
between the journey of this life and the next
between death and birth
Here is where you define your destiny
and here is where you lead the way
out of the shadows
Your only escape
from here til then...
