A Monster Under My Bed - Nevermore Lyrics

At the edge
Of the coldest of midnights
Unable to feel
Nothing but weakness
Guiding my thoughts through the pages

Of forgotten
Reality
The seeing stones
For aeons restless
Restless for too long
So long this
Only will
Is to be
Empty

That gelid december comes
To my mind
Dying embers
Reflecting on the floor
Anguish for the morning
That is supposed to come
That's supposed to come to ease the pain
For the lost
Now nameless here
Forevermore

The silence will break
At the sound
Of who comes to judge
Embraced in murk

Tell me beast that looks into my soul with this black flame in your eyes
Is there to come a day, for this stain in the mirror to banish?
Or for me to stop begging for this same lie?

All the memories
That now tear my inner self appart
Will they ever be gone?
Will they ever be?

A sense of madness comes
To my mind
Dying embers reflecting on the floor
Anguish for the morning
That is supposed to come
That's supposed to come to ease the pain
For the lost
Now nameless here
Forevermore

Nevermore

And still it's sitting there
It never flew away
His empty eyes
Of a demon that dreams
And his shadow
Eclipsing mine for all
Eternity
