[Intro] [Deep male vocal][growl][pitch-bent fx][spoken tune] In this giant universal massiveness.. We stare each night Into the dark behind the stars Where only silence exists And I get swallowed into the abyss [Dramatic entry][full sound][loud] [Low growls][husky male][gentle crescendo] [Verse 1] A Childs mind Doesnt know how to find Their way out from a nightmare It really Boils up their fear Is there somebody there? In the closet or under the bed Tip toe round dont let it know youre scared [Loud crash] did you hear that!?!? Hes back!!! The boogeyman is here... Grew up brain says Nobody lives under the bed But. Now, it’s in the blood, Encoded reminded every heart beating thud Breathe with the panic, over & over As you shake and sweat so erratic That dread You had when you looked under the bed Draws your eyes up to the sky, Holy shit, that kid was right You should be scared of the void, Its the place your mind is Its the place you'll find [death scream][crescendo] The dark soul of the night!! [Pre chorus][melodic][rough] Fear filters out the weak The strong gain direction Don’t flinch, dont speak Access adrenaline-fueled perception [Interlude][violin solo] [spoken][symphony orchestral build][guitar pick] As kids we feared The boogeyman in our rooms Then we grew up, & dared To look up & now we see how vast The black shadow surrounding us in dark It's the real threat! In our minds In our heads [Hook][double layer vocal][melodic][death metal male] Born from dark into light From a void into sight I make peace with my inner beast Now he has my back Stars are just a lure They draw in the blind You call it night And I call it MINE!!!!!! [VERSE 2][Rap][metal undertone][deep male] Walking through death to feel the flame, Pain is a prophet, whisperin’ names. Taught to lay with shadows to cope, Looks like peace ITS NOT .... Its only false hope! I’ll be the echo, I’ll be your curse, I'll be your reason I'll silence what hurts. Grew through the weeds of selfishness believed I was nothing but worthless evolved through all that pain, And now the fear will bow [whisper][death metal] when it hears my name. [Music Interlude][loud][full sound] [cinematic orchestra][eerie choral ahhs] [Symphonic layers] [Pull back][beautiful violin solo] [Bridge][angelic female vocal][strong] Stars are the beauty in the vast Darkness all around Endless doors of life of freedom If you want to be found Look up and make your wish Turn hope into belief Open my eyes and see, do the stars stare back at me? [Final Hook][epic build up] Born from the dark to fight The Wars, Epic battles inside But then I made peace & Crowned my inner beast To be the keeper of the storm So now I can be free Didnt know all Id need Was to run into the storm but choose to transform Oh my fucking GOD! [thunder][storm FX] Now I see - it was always me - I am the beast! [Outro][quiet voice][sad] The stars are a lure I let them draw Me in, I used to call it night And now I call it MINE!!

The dark is MINE!!!!
