The Evil Within Lyrics

The day we first met, you spoke of forever

With words so sweet, like a gentle tether

You swore by the stars our love would never falter

A sacred vow you said you'd never alter

The promises melted into shards of deceit

Each lie a dagger, each betrayal complete

You turned your back while I was left to mend

Your selfish echoes where love used to blend

Your words once a lullaby, now a storm

Every argument a cut, every battle the norm

Countless nights with tears as my only friend

Your silting freckles where love used to blend

Your words once a lullaby, now a storm

Every argument a cut, every battle the norm

Countless nights with tears as my only friend

Searching for answers where no light extends

Why did I unravel like a twisted tale?

The dreams we wove now lost and frail

Caught in your snare of shadows and deceit

I need to escape, find my own heartbeat

Before it consumes me, before I'm defeated

You crafted a canvas of perfect hues

How could I miss the dark shades you, you used

I hung on your every promise, blind and naive

Now I see the monster you cleverly conceived

The love we built turned to ashes and stone

I sat in the ruins of what I thought I'd known

Your soul once radiant, now a void so deep

A darkness that swallows a silence so steep

Why did I unravel like a twisted tale?

The dreams we wove now lost and frail

Caught in your snare of shadows and deceit

I need to escape, find my own heartbeat

Before it consumes me, before I'm defeated

I envisioned forever, a future so bright

Now I'm haunted by your true face in the light

A darkness beyond any nightmare I feared

Trained in my spirit, making my vision unclear

I can't fall released from that astral sight

To sever the chains and reclaim my light

Why did I unravel like a twisted tale?

The dreams we wove now lost and frail

Caught in your snare of shadows and deceit

I need to escape, find my own heartbeat

Before it consumes me, before I'm defeated

I need to run away, break from your slum

Escape the dawn that brings farewell

Run away from your shadows and lies

Seek the new dawn where truth never dies

Fly away from the ghost of your embrace

Find my own path in a safer place

I need to run away, run away from you
