Black Souls

Lyrics

Verse 1 Lie beside me in the night and speak the words meant only for me I will close the door and never open it again until your words are honest Beneath black souls and a blackened sky we share the pain that leaves us paralyzed No light can fill this room No sunlight can drive away the darkness we carry We are trapped By what we felt, by what I always knew I’m tired of standing here alone again Or is the evil already waiting for me? Chorus Tell me the words that will open the door Out of the darkness, into the light Tell me the truth, even if it tears us apart Every lie keeps these chains wrapped around our hearts Tell me the words that can set us free Before the night becomes all we’ll ever be Verse 2 The shadows whisper our names into the wind Every hidden memory wears the scars of who we’ve been We built our walls from silence, stone by stone so high And wondered why no heart could ever reach inside The truth burns like fire upon frozen skin Yet its light is the only way out of this prison I see the fear behind your eyes Because you carry the same wounds as I do Bridge Speak it now Let the demons hear who you really are Speak it now Even if every word leaves a scar The darkness loses all its power The moment the truth is finally spoken Final Chorus Tell me the words that will open the door Out of the darkness, into the light Let the black souls learn to breathe again Let the broken hearts learn to see again The night is fading, the chains are breaking And where only shadows used to remain A new dawn is rising Outro No more secrets hidden in the dark No more masks to hide the truth inside The door stands open, the light pours in And for the first time We are free
