Shadows Fall

Shadows Fall - What Drives The Weak

This time released security
Controlled dose of tranquillity
Forgetfulness washes over me
Put to rest the voices of insanity

Only the cinders remain
As another night
Becomes a yesterday

Come on! Anesthetize the pain
It is what drives the weak
You're gone! Anesthetize the pain
Putting all uncertainties to sleep

Not an altered state of mind
But a safer place in an unsafe world
Within the nearness of death
Rapture with the skip of a heartbeat

Only the cinders remain
As another night
Becomes a yesterday

Come on! Anesthetize the pain
It is what drives the weak
You're gone! Anesthetize the pain
Putting all uncertainties to sleep
