Homeward

Walking on empty streets
Through the mist under street lights flickering
There is no shadow, it’s just the hollow
Just an empty body walking
You know I left my heart with you
So heartless I’m homeward bound now
If there ever was a soul,
It left the vessel a long time ago
Riots break out in the streets
I walk unseen among them
I am screaming your name
But no one is listening, no one is noticing me
A raven watching from above
It follows my every move
It knows my fears
It knows my fears
The raven flies past me
It’s leading the way
In the darkness I’m drifting
There’s no reason to stay
Everything was broken
The dark would always win
I am homeward bound
This is where death begins
What will you do when it comes for you
Where is my profit in loving you
Eye for an eye, heart for a heart
I’ll give it back some day
Don’t lay down, no time for rest
A portal of black mass opens
It pulls me in, it pulls me in
I’m trying to resist
I know it’s there and it’s shining through
I can’t connect, won’t allow me to exist
Falling apart, lies kill lies,
To my knees in broken glass
Now my shadow is catching up
It wraps itself around my body
It takes me there
It takes me there
The raven flies past me
It’s leading the way
In the darkness I’m drifting
There’s no reason to stay
Everything was broken
The dark would always win
I am homeward bound
This is where death begins
