Mitra Changed Me

Lyrics

[Intro] [Heavy electric guitar riff, pounding drums, driving bass] [Verse 1] Haunted halls and shifting walls Ghostly whispers in the dark Broken glass and echoes call Trying to extinguish every spark I ran through the shadows, broke through the door Leaving the nightmare on the floor Slammed the gate and I took a breath Escaped the mansion of dust and death [Pre-Chorus] 'Cause somebody else had burned me down Left my faith scattered on the ground Every promise was a bitter lie Watched my principles break and die Trust became a heavy stone A burden I carried all alone [Chorus] Then Mitra walked right into my life Showed me a light through all the strife When every bridge was burned to ash And every wall came down to crash Mitra showed me kindness still exists Pulled me out of the blinding mist Yeah, Mitra changed me for the better Broke the lock and broke the fetters! [Verse 2] Staring out at the empty road Tired of carrying that jagged load Thought the world was cold and bleak Words of hope were a language weak Then a simple hand, a gentle word The kindest voice I ever heard Standing there in the morning light Turning the gray back into bright [Pre-Chorus] 'Cause somebody else had burned me down Left my faith scattered on the ground Every promise was a bitter lie Watched my principles break and die Trust became a heavy stone A burden I carried all alone [Chorus] Then Mitra walked right into my life Showed me a light through all the strife When every bridge was burned to ash And every wall came down to crash Mitra showed me kindness still exists Pulled me out of the blinding mist Yeah, Mitra changed me for the better Broke the lock and broke the fetters! [Guitar Solo] [Soaring, fiery electric guitar solo over pounding rhythm] [Bridge] No more running from the ghosts of yesterday No more shadows getting in the way I thought the heart inside was made of steel Now Mitra proved that I can feel [Chorus] Then Mitra walked right into my life Showed me a light through all the strife When every bridge was burned to ash And every wall came down to crash Mitra showed me kindness still exists Pulled me out of the blinding mist Yeah, Mitra changed me for the better Broke the lock and broke the fetters! [Outro] Changed me for the better! Kindness still exists! Out of the haunted mansion, out of the dark! [Final heavy guitar chord sustained, drums crash to a stop]
