A World So Black

I hear your voice again
Whispers through the walls
Just some distant memories
Nothing I can say
Secrets I don’t keep
Still I‘m holding on

Hope is fading faster than I can replace it
Ever-changing
Chasing this distant feeling once again

[Chorus:]
It died in me, died in me
The promise not to harm
You’re haunting me constantly
In a world so black, so jaded
You’re tied to me, tied to me
I’m so mistaken
And I start to see everything
In this world so black, so jaded

It’s so clear to me
I’m my own enemy
I am so forsaken
Helpless lay me down
Taking all that I am
Cut my heart from my empty soul

Hope is fading faster than I can replace it
Ever-changing
Chasing this distant feeling once again

[Chorus:]
It died in me, died in me
The promise not to harm
You’re haunting me constantly
In a world so black, so jaded
You’re tied to me, tied to me
I’m so mistaken
And I start to see everything
In this world so black, so jaded

[Solo]

Hope is fading faster than I can replace it
Ever-changing
Chasing this distant feeling once again

[Chorus:]
It died in me, died in me
The promise not to harm
You’re haunting me constantly
In a world so black, so jaded
You’re tied to me, tied to me
I’m so mistaken
And I start to see everything
In this world so black, so jaded

In a world so black
Hope dies first
In a world so black
All hope dies first
