Shadows dwell in restless night
In dreams they whisper in grim delight
Cackling laughter far and near
Yet as mist do they appear
Eyes red as blood and shame
Evil stares of doubt and blame
Fixed upon this gentle soul
The cost is peace for their toll
Strength, however, lies deep within
Once an end, now to begin
Change now flows in streams of blood
Though thought has slowed like thickened mud
One clear notion comes and grows
Knowledge forms from what it sowes
Blackened mists whose roots aren't seen
Combined now the shadows and me
With searching gaze cross sea and shore
Distant sounds hard to ignore
Warm wind beneath these shadowed wings
I am become this horrored thing
