Exile Lyrics

In the dark and the stillness of the night

I stand my trial

The difference 'tween what's wrong and what is right

Is but one turn of the dial

Time hovers by the wall

Waiting on me to fall

Go meet my kingdom come

Now I must turn and face the truth

One thing I've to do coz I don't run

She was like a spirit in the moonlight

So alive, a firefly

Her innocence it burned so bright

But I was in denial

I found what it takes to take a life

Run the sharp edge of the knife

Along my thumb

Desire spreading like a stain

The hurt and now the pain won't be undone

In the dark and the stillness of the night

I stand my trial, I stand my trial

The difference 'tween what's wrong and what is right

Is but one turn of the dial

Now I walk this this road alone

Kicking every other stone

Watch them skip and run

And with the passing of each mile

My exile has begun
