under the veil

down the rabbit hole

have an aching feeling deep down in my soul

and i

swear i've seen before

all the faces lurking just beyond the door

maybe

i can make this real

but there's many ways that one can break a seal

and i'm

scared of what i'll do

cause the path ahead is splitting into two and i'm

falling down

hardly makes a sound

i grasp for solid ground

if i cry

should they even try

or watch me die

you were there for me

and you

only raised your hand in desperate pleas

but i

needed to be free

so i'll

remember you in all that i see

and this

road ahead is strange

with the opportunity for me to change

will i

stay true to this path

or will

i succumb into this bitter wrath

and i'm

falling down

hardly makes a sound

i grasp for solid ground

if i cry

should they even try

or watch me die

all those living beings

lives and memories to share

tell me what you're seeing

shaky hands reach out to spare

to cut down your brother

end their life without despair

tell me who's the monster

don't break beyond repair

take my hand now

i won't allow

this darkness to

make me hurt you

made my choices

heard their voices

won't let this heart

tear you apart

i'll stand by you

and i'll try to

make this all last

not like the past

can't just reset

cannot forget

under our tale

under the veil

falling down

hardly makes a sound

i grasp for solid ground

if i cry

should they even try

or watch me die

all those living beings

lives and memories to share

tell me what you're seeing

shaky hands reach out to spare

to cut down your brother

end their life without despair

tell me who's the monster

don't break beyond repair

falling down

no need for a sound

i'll land on gentle ground

if i cry

they won't pass me by

my tears they'll dry

broken now we're breathing

enemies to friends so dear

all our weapons sheathing

overcome the dark and fear

mending wounds of the past

what we've got will surely last

final words will echo

i'm not letting go
