Mad John

My eyes are chained to the ceiling tonight
Searching for a reason inside the light
I'm not sleeping, I'm not awake
A hollow soul that never breaks
Every memory I tried to hide
Finds its way back every night
I'm chasing answers I can't find
Fighting demons in my mind

Every breath becomes a lie
Every prayer passes me by

Woman of the night
Get out of my dreams
Set my spirit free
Let me finally breathe
Woman of the night
Release what's left of me
Don't haunt my soul forever
Just let me be

One hand holds my feet in place
The other steals the tears from my face
You're touching every hidden fear
Whispering words I shouldn't hear
You drank the blood inside my veins
Left me alive to feel the pain
Tell me why you won't let go
Tell me what I need to know

I forgot the words to pray
I forgot another way

Woman of the night
Get out of my dreams
Set my spirit free
Let me finally breathe
Woman of the night
Release what's left of me
Don't haunt my soul forever
Just let me be

If you're only made of shadows
Why do you feel so real?
If you're only in my nightmares
Why won't these wounds heal?
Every sunrise hides your face
Every sunset brings your name
Am I trapped inside this nightmare
Or am I the one to blame?

Woman of the night
Fade into the dawn
Take your hands away
Leave this broken heart alone
Woman of the night
I'm done living in your spell
Open up the gates of morning
And free me from this hell

My eyes no longer fear the light
I'm finally leaving
The woman of the night
