[Instrumental]

No disturbance could wake me
Observers are captivated
By nocturnal projections
Of my vivid imagination

Try as I might to recall the events of the night
Yet the deeper I hunt, the further away they run

Moon rises
I shiver, confiding in the mirror
My ghost in the reflection
Just witnessed the resurrection

Lights flashed before my eyes
With scenes from someone else's life!

Nothing is quite as it seems
Something died inside of me
By powers that be
A man will live forever
In paranoia

I believe your conspiracy
When they're after me
For what I revealed could change your life

Scenes from someone else's life
Have they been placed in our minds?

Never have I ever taken a life
But it seems overnight I've become a killer
On the run 'cause...

I believe your conspiracy
When they're after me
For what I revealed

I believe your conspiracy
When they're after me
For what I revealed will change your life

Tonight I hang by a thread
As the voice in my head takes control
Of this pain that I have felt before

On trial my confidence weakens
I'm close to defeat
But tonight the verdict will be televised

Calling no witnesses to the stand
Clearing my name with no evidence
Knowing this could be my final chance
No one is coming to my defense

Inside the truth is suppresses
With unlimited access denied
To all the things you wish to hide

The lies, the sex and the secrets
Will tear us to pieces in time
When no one can tell wrong from right

Calling no witnesses to the stand
Clearing my name with no evidence
Knowing this could be my final chance
No one is coming to my defense

Nocturnal conspiracy
Nocturnal conspiracy

Over the edge
Falling in and out of time
History is always repeating

Day in day out
I wait to confront my fate
Mystery is never revealing

I will wait
I will wait

Night after night
Shrouded in secrecy
The harder I try to decipher this symphony
It pushes me closer to death
I begin to see alternate realities surrounding me

I am dying to get back to sleep again
I lie in my bed but I've seen the end
My days are numbered
In death I discover

Insomnia
Insomnia
I will wait
I will wait

Dying to get back to sleep again
I lie in my bed but I've seen the end
My days are numbered
In death I discover

Insomnia
Insomnia

Underneath your mask
A place for us to hide
From this penetrating pain of mortal life
The beauty of it all
Makes no sense to me
With restraints on my curiosity

When you are dreaming
I am wide awake
Believe when you see me
In the mind's eye I wait
While you are sleeping

Lost inside your mind
In the dead of night
Nowhere else to hide
Playing with fire is burning my reality

The shape of things to come
Are closer than they seem
Changing your design
Every time you disappear
I'm planning my escape
Through portals of your mind
Where people seem to drop like flies

I buried your past away
Failing to seize the day
Your memory is suppressed
I'm raising the dead

Lost inside your mind
In the dead of night
Nowhere else to hide
Playing with fire is burning my reality

Lost inside your mind
I am wide awake
Nowhere else to hide
In the Mind's Eye I await

[Instrumental]

Dance into the masquerade
I am the only man who has a face
In this land of no identity
Who leads your secret society?

So deep in her disguise
I fail to recognize
My sister
The Shapeshifter
Will never change her ways

You make the first descent
This atmosphere becomes intense
As your start to undress
My robes of consciousness

So deep in her disguise
I fail to recognize
My sister
The Shapeshifter
Will never change her ways

In the mist you fade to grey
Lost in a city where vampires are guarding the gates
And you vanish with no trace
Warped and distorted
My fear is escorted away

Pleasure I mistake for pain
My demons and angels are playing a dangerous game
Inside the vessel of my friends
I'm haunted by strangers
They're craving a thirst for revenge

I surrender to the view
To find the replacement
A manifestation of you
One God to whom I seldom pray
Created the science
You work in mysterious ways

So deep in her disguise
I fail to recognize
My sister
The Shapeshifter
Will never change her ways

When you are dreaming
I am wide awake
Believe when you see me
In the Mind's Eye I wait
While you are sleeping

Dying hope visit me in the flesh
Another noose wrapped around my neck
Your helping hand is all I need
To pull the ground out from underneath

No will to live
I'm tempting fate
I feel most alive
Confronting death
But life goes on
With no escape
Don't wait for me
I'm here to stay

Point that gun, press it to my head
Deathless blood, suck it out from my neck
No one's gonna miss me when I'm gone
I'm killing time but I'll live on

Nowhere to run
It's not too late
I'll end my life
At my own pace
Holding on
I take the pain
Don't wait for me
I'm here to stay

To the afterlife i will never know
With a fixed blade knife held up to my throat
On immortality I will overdose
All this you can read in my suicide notes

Kiss my scars, taste them on my breath
Stealing time from the suspense
Come Judgment Day I've one last request
Please hold my hand as I harm myself

No will to live
Nowhere to run
I'm tempting fate
It's not too late
I feel most alive
I'll end my life
Confronting death
At my own pace
But life goes on
Holding on
With no escape
I take the pain
Don't wait for me
IMPATIENTLY
I'm here to stay

To the afterlife I will never know
With a fixed blade knife held up to my throat
On immortality I will overdose
All this you can read in my suicide notes

Still I wait

Spirits of the night
Communicate with me
Their visions of a future
Of what is yet to be

As I see the way I die
And I try to change it
I am running short of time
I'll just sit here waiting

'Til the moment comes around
Like I've been here once before
And I'm questioning the truth
No escaping déjà vu

If I could harness this power
Assume absolute control
Of my visions from a future
No one will ever know

That I've seen the day you die
And I tried to change it
You are running short of time
You'll just sit there waiting

'Til the moment comes around
Like you've been there once before
And you're questioning the truth
No escaping déjà vu

Faces become strangely familiar
Stumbling upon traces of my visions

No I see a shadow of a man
In my silhouette he stands
The wisdom of my premonition comes to life!
I was just a kid back then but now I'm back to take revenge
I sternly look my killer in the eye

I'm out for satisfaction when I'm suddenly distracted
By the silent cries that echo in the streets
My finger pulls the trigger
With my whole life left to figure if the boy I accidentally killed was me

Voices become strangely deceiving
Gravity's pull has zero effect on me

Now the moment's finally here
And it feels like just before
Only now I face the truth
I will have to wait no more

Will this ever end?
I've been through enough
This is the part where I wake up with blood on my hands
Traveling back to where it all began

As for the boy, it pleased me to know
That he'll just wake up nine years old, alone and afraid
He'll live for the day this moment comes around again

Now the moment's finally here
And it feels just like before
Even now I know the truth
I accept my fate no more

I bet you don't remember me
I guess you won't forget
The only way to go
When there is nowhere left to roam

Scenes from someone else's lifetime
Flash like bright lights before my eyes
Scenes from someone else's lifetime
Flash like bright lights in my eyes

From the beginning I never dreamt I was the killer

Over the edge, falling in and out of time

Yeah the moment passed us by
And it felt just like before
As I leave this world behind
I know I'll come back for more
