I check myself 'cause I should be dead
The rings of flame still inside my head
The blue facade slowly turning red
Evil denizen
The life support's punctuated hum
Sit by your side for the day to come
The truth is black like obsidian
Seek a medicine
Get tough
Don't back out
Time to ditch your doubt
Gate crash
Don't you stop
Countdown to the drop
I just couldn't win
'Cause there was nothing I could ever change
So puny and thin
My body was a cage
But under the skin
I got so comfy on this bed of nails
Death always fails
Back to take the pain
To give you what you're begging for
Be my shadowborn
We're back to take the pain
My soul is indestructible
I steal you from the grave
So cursed to be a slave
There's a darkness I keep
That you can never see beyond
In the dungeons so deep
Down where the stars ain't ever shone
There's a distance between us
That you'll never overcome
In the deafening silence
When the day has come and gone
Calm before the storm
It's me they all are coming for
Be my shadowborn
We're back to take the pain
My soul is indestructible
I steal you from the grave
So cursed to be a slave
