[Verse 1]
Somewhere deep
inside me fes
ter memories a
nd dreams
I try to pin t
hem down but I
can't hear be
yond the screa
ms
All I recall w
ith clarity is
sunlight and
is merry song
What are these
thoughts so v
ague and dark
beyond?
Deep inside my
mind
What is there
to find?
()
[Verse 2]
Who is she tha
t I see? Could
it be? Is it
me? Or just a
dream?
Crying out, bu
t without any
way she can sh
out her silent
scream
Is this rage a
t her cage or
wars she canno
t wage chained
in my soul
Can I find fro
m my mind that
which is left
behind making
me whole
[Chorus]
Flashes like c
amera bulbs fi
re in my brain
Is this truly
me, am I going
insane?
In faint blood
y flashes I wa
tch people die
And if that wa
s me, then who
am I?
[Verse 3]
Locked away fr
om the fray le
st they say wh
at I may truly
deserve
Though my tear
s I can hear e
choes of creep
ing fear whisp
ering words
In my soul, ta
king hold, try
ing to make me
whole, bringi
ng me back
What I saw, go
ne before, lea
ds to a gaping
maw, twisting
the track
[Chorus]
Flashes like c
amera bulbs fi
re in my brain
Is this truly
me, am I going
insane?
In faint blood
y flashes I wa
tch people die
And if that wa
s me, then who
am I?
[Bridge]
Oooooohhh, you
can't erase m
e
Oooooohhh, you
can't unmake
me
Oooooohhh, you
can't erase m
e
Oooooohhh, you
can't unmake
me
[Chorus]
Flashes like c
amera bulbs fi
re in my brain
Is this truly
me, am I going
insane?
In faint blood
y flashes I wa
tch people die
And if that wa
s me, then who
am I?
[Thor]
This cannot be
, but here I s
ee a face I kn
ow so well
Loki should be
dead, but her
e she sits, a
broken shell
Baldur died an
d for that cri
me we watched
her burn in bl
oody pain
Did Odin choos
e to save her
for her train?
If we were bet
rayed
There's a pric
e to pay
[Thorus]
Fury like thun
derbolts burns
through my ve
ins
If that's trul
y her then I k
now who's to b
lame
Odin passed ju
dgement; we al
l watched her
die
But if that is
Loki she'll p
ay for her lie
s
Fury like thun
derbolts burns
through my ve
ins
(Flashes like camera bulbs fire in my brain)
If that's trul
y her then I k
now who's to b
lame
(Is this truly me, am I going insane?)
Odin passed ju
dgement; we al
l watched her
die
(In faint bloody flashes I watch people die)
But if that is
Loki she'll p
ay for her lie
s
(And if that was me, then who the fuck am I?)
