There's a shadow standing under a tree
I don't feel. Please, set me free!
A world illuminates a clouded sky
It's backwards. Alive, and he can't see why
Creatures slither, creatures eat
A creature gets eaten or a creature sleeps
It seems a minefield of hidden deceit
I don't know why, but a creature repeats
Everything's Hollow: Nothing means anything
There is no joy - only idiots sing
His eyes used to glow, but now they're dead
Like black holes sunken into his head
But I'm gonna care as much as I can
For this short time left that I have as a man
To know what kind of fool the world enthralls
Waiting for the light while the darkness falls
There's a shadow standing under a tree
One more step, and then I'll see nothing
More of the things that suffocate me
The swarm is silent, I can finally unbend
I feel nothing, not even at the end
If heaven's on earth then may hell ascend
There's a shadow hanging under a tree
And a rope is a tool to set one free
