The Shadows

Sitting in the shadows of your world
without a glimmer of me in your eye
while the darkness i see all around me
makes me wonder why

while staying alone in this black hole
i try to find my way
through the abyss and into your life
and be there to forever stay

traveling through the lightless labyrinth
that i feel down in my soul
not knowing the reasons of this emptiness
and why i have to pay this toll

why am i in the shadows of your life
alone in this hellish night
trying desperately to exit the depths
and get back into your sight

wandering in the catacombs of sorrow
that lay inside of me
wondering when i could ever leave
and the hurt would never be

looking for a way out of this emptiness
and come back from hades domain
to encounter my Aphrodite
and to stop all of my pain

until i exit this forest of darkness
ill keep searching till my end
till my total hell turns to heaven
where i know you will ascend
