Nik Nocturnal Dear Phantom (feat. Andy Cizek)
Strife, Friction within my thoughts makes way for the flames, burning up my self-control (and I'm alone)
On my own in eternal struggle with the darkness inside
As I recoil from the turmoil within, I feel the earth collapse around me, everyone is staring, wondering why
There is a difference between what you see and who I am, constant suppression leaves me paralyzed
I must learn to harness this disease
And if I'm playing with fire, it is my burden to decide what transpires
Dear phantom
I won't let you drag me underneath this world
Oh, phantom
I was meant to find the beauty in this curse
These demons leave with a mark
Much like the scars on my heart
Wounds of the past carry me to new paths
Taming the strife, let my life begin again
Battered, bruised, but I refuse to give in to this plague
Shatter, fuse, and rebuild the walls of yesterday
Dear phantom
I won't let you drag me underneath this world
Oh, phantom
I was meant to find the beauty in this curse
Hear my voice, you have no choice, give in to the anguish
I won't lose hope in this broken soul until the darkness is vanquished
There's nothing left, you're all alone
My future's never set in stone
Your suffering is lethal
No! I will transcend this evil
You're trapped inside
But there's still time
I'm taking back what's mine
Dear phantom
I won't let you drag me underneath this world
Oh, phantom
I was meant to find the beauty in this curse
