[Verse 1]
I woke up to nothing but a candle
And the vague understanding that my name is Daniel
Uncertain of my circumstance, nothing else is substantial
I gather fragments of a mind that I might have dismantled
The last dregs of oil burning in the lantern
Dispel the phantoms that hold my memory to ransom
Can I remember the reason that I need to answer them
And descend into madness' inner sanctum?
A humble hunter-gatherer hunted by gatherers
Who are governеd by malice in this glum palace of avarice
Undеr the thumb of Baron Alexander in its utter vastness
Some cannot handle this and thus succumb to blackness
The kind of dark a pack of matches can't dispel
The kind that violates your mind 'til it's a lifeless shell
You've made the drive halfway into your private Hell
So finish the trip and enjoy the ride, you might as well
[Pre-Chorus]
No gunpowder, just a tinderbox
No flint, no pin for picking the locks
No giving up, no going back
No hope, no memory, you don't know jack
[Chorus]
You can run, you can hide
You can shun what's inside you
But I know your mind
I will come and will find
You can crouch in the dark
Can deny I'm inside
You are only delay
In the day that I find you
I woke up to nothing but a candle
And the vague understanding that my name is Daniel
Uncertain of my circumstance, nothing else is substantial
I gather fragments of a mind that I might have dismantled
The last dregs of oil burning in the lantern
Dispel the phantoms that hold my memory to ransom
Can I remember the reason that I need to answer them
And descend into madness' inner sanctum?
A humble hunter-gatherer hunted by gatherers
Who are governеd by malice in this glum palace of avarice
Undеr the thumb of Baron Alexander in its utter vastness
Some cannot handle this and thus succumb to blackness
The kind of dark a pack of matches can't dispel
The kind that violates your mind 'til it's a lifeless shell
You've made the drive halfway into your private Hell
So finish the trip and enjoy the ride, you might as well
[Pre-Chorus]
No gunpowder, just a tinderbox
No flint, no pin for picking the locks
No giving up, no going back
No hope, no memory, you don't know jack
[Chorus]
You can run, you can hide
You can shun what's inside you
But I know your mind
I will come and will find
You can crouch in the dark
Can deny I'm inside
You are only delay
In the day that I find you
