Here I stand in silence destination unknown waiting for a memory
Of who I was before
A faceless name a shadowed heart confused and deranged, an enemy
To myself but soon this beast will tame

You know I try to understand
And I've tried to make amends

Will this be my rising or will this be my fall still caught between the
Shadows still in between the walls
On bended ears these words may fall listen if you will pull me from
Obscurity free me from this cell

I try to understand and
I've tried to make amends
The king of it depends

My eyes opened to see the path chosen for me
I'm a desperate man

I'm a friend of madness I'm at peace with death
It's the internal quest that haunts my every step
And as the dark embraces I'll take a breath remember
Who I am I'm not a desperate man

I try to understand and I've tried to make amends
Desperate man

My eyes opened to see the path chosen for me
It's my affliction a common tragedy but in the end
I'll see what was in front of me there was no reason
To be a desperate man, desperate man

My eyes opened to see what was in front of me
