Concerning the Way It Was Lyrics

Concerning the way it was

The shadow cast upon me
Eyes sewn shut with the wires
Life bound by the lies that pierce my skin
Heart as cold as winter
Although there is no season
In this place of loneliness

I'm drowning, every day the same
Locked at the ankles, plotting my escape
I've tried so hard to remind myself
Life's only what I see
I thought I lost the meaning
But I was only finding you

The years without the freedom
Tortured by words of reason
Convincing those around me
That life consists of nothing
And death the end of all the things
You've broken through the darkness
The shadow gone forever

And now I live
And now theres hope [4x]
