The Lucifer Effect

I walk through the darkest corners of the mind

Guided not by faith nor reason

Yet it still feels like treason

I hear the ghosts calling out my name

Are they really a part of me?

Clarity, come to me

I seem to have lost my way

Sanity is all I have left in me

I feel them watching from afar

The sense of self is fading in this odyssey

Entangled in fear, I can hear their calling

Oh how I wish I could be brought back to the light

I can hear them sing

(I can hear them sing)

I've been immersed into this bleak realm of broken dreams

To answer their summons, as so many faces stare at me

The thoughts I was repressing only backfired 'til I ceased to resist

Is this the price I have to pay to end my innocence?

I can hear them sing

All I see is dim

As I keep sinking

I've felt enough

Too much is grey

I cannot bear another day

To escape this eerie state

Another night, another day

If only I could find a way

Clarity, come to me

I seemed to have lost my way

Sanity was all I had left in me

I thought I'd touched ground

but I keep sinking

I've become one of them

I have become a demon

For too long I've gazed into the abyss

I have become the martyrs

I have become the wicked

The Lucifer Effect sails inside of me

And I gaze into all your suffering and make it my own

You are all the saintless

You are all a part of me
