Misantrog

Dancing on the walls playful flickering
And through colorless they cheer me with their show
There's no day or night, there's no sound of life
Yet I'm not alone for the darkness walks with me

Leave me safe to be
In a place where there's no need to see
Where the shadows are so real
And the coldness that I feel reminds me I'm alive

Good intent a Rescue plan
Police? A priest? A 'yes you can bless you' man?
Drag me out to show me the way
Awaken me to light of day hear you say

"This is all for you my friend
Your loneliness has come to end we were sent!"
Stabbing flash it's shocking me
Intruding light laughs mocking me mocking me

But I admit at times if I confess my crimes
A Daphne would be nice
All the light not even the sun can blaze so bright as to
Burn away the cold of the dark or keep me company

This light cannot melt what's inside
The cold reminds me I'm alive
Please leave me to myself
The cold reminds me I'm alive
"How have you lived for all these years all by yourself?

We'll drag you out, show you the way
Awaken you to light of day!" Heard them say
"This is all for you, old man
Your loneliness has come to an end!"

A stabbing flash is shocking me, mocking me, mocking me

No don't pity me or just think me mad
Despite your entourage we know it's you that's all alone
I know that can't be true to someone like you
You're unwelcome here. You trespass with your light

Leave me safe to be
In a place where there's no need to see
Where the shadows are so real
And the coldness that I feel reminds me I'm alive

"All the love - the love of the world
Could ever change his heart or his mind
Combined with all the light of the sun
He chooses darkness for he is blind

He wants no light he'll never see
The darkness is his legacy
We'll leave him to himself!
The cold can keep him company!"

And so he'll live all of his years all by himself
