Hollow Realms

[Verse 1]
Awake in this nightmare on the edge of the night
Sleepless of uncertainty, the window is fogged in black
Empire of fallen hours deceived by its light

[Chorus 1]
How to burn without fire?
How to fight the passage of time?
So close to a flame that expires
As soon as a promise fades away

[Verse 3]
Your palace your prison in despair, hollow realms
Solemn thoughts rise to heaven
Trying to find the ghost of deliverance
Again
The room is shrinking by moments
And your demons laugh with you

[Interlude]
Hours go by in giant steps
Timeless seasons haunt my dreams
For an instant admiring the morning rise and suddenly, the night
Tired of wandering, tired of losing my inner fight

[Chorus 2]
Every time I see that stranger in the mirror
My flame within burns as a dim light
Every time I see that stranger in the mirror
My flame within burns as a dim light

[Interlude]
Immersed in the orphanhood of my silence
I’m a ghost buried in my own body
An sleeping face over a barren earth

[Verse 4]
Awake in this nightmare, on the edge of the night
On the edge of nowhere where never shines the sun
No one to cry to, no one to blame
No one to blame
Faded under the gaze of empty mirrors
And I ask...

[Chorus 1]
How to burn without fire?
How to fight the passage of time?
So close to a flame that expires
As soon as a promise fades away
Fades away

[Chorus 2]
Every time I see that stranger in the mirror
My flame within burns as a dim light
Every time I see that stranger in the mirror
My flame within burns as a dim light
