The Shattered Room - Arena

Scooping the moon from a starlit pool

It ripples and breaks into luminous jewels

And shards of light float through the night

Moonbeams of magic shining like eyes

Shooting the breeze as the clouds roll by

A face in the rain and a voice in the sky

Showering wisdom like newly formed pearls

That fall to the ground in this innocent world

Here in this Darkest House — Living with these ancient wounds

Here in this Darkest House — Trapped inside those shattered rooms

So many lies — blighted ambitions

Caught in a race — a certain collision

Stumbling over the paths of depression

Too scared to search for the answers to questions

Lost in this Darkest House — Living with these ancient wounds

Lost in this Darkest House — Trapped inside those shattered rooms

Hide brother hide — Veiled in disguises

Circle of spies — Fighting for the highest prize

Offer a culture — Must now divide them

Melt into every crowd — Bringing our defences down

Lost in this Darkest House — Living with these ancient wounds

Lost in this Darkest House — Trapped inside those shattered rooms

I see the shadow of this lupine condition

Howling in the mountains with a wolverine heart

He’s always running from this state of aggression

Given half a chance he can tear you apart

No mercy for you!

No sleep for the doomed!

I see the shadow of a vampire’s obsession

Eternity’s a curse that will drive him insane

A life of guilt and such violent confession

Don’t look away;

he’ll drain the last drop of blood from your veins

Lost in this Dark House — Watch your back and stay awake

Lost in this Dark House — Sleep would be a cruel mistake

Lost in this Dark House — living with these ancient wounds

Lost in this Dark House — Trapped inside these cold and shattered rooms

Lost in this Darkest House — Lost in this Darkest House

Living with these ancient wounds — Trapped inside these cold and shattered rooms
