The Silent Dark Songtext
von Novembers Doom

Here in the silent dark
The emptiness reveals my heart
Why are you so ashamed of me?
Living in a secret that no one sees

For all the tears I have cried
Embracing sins of my past
It′s those who surround me
And I see the worst in them all

I struggle with my demons
These are mine to bear
I can see your constant smile
That is, until you look at me

Dying alone where my legacy ends
The trudging way the honorable hair
The final breath that I draw in
Death rattle groan that no one hears
I've done this to myself, I created my own hell
What a fitting place for my end, for my end


I have been my final draw
No longer can I stop the ache
Bleeding out all the honesty
Leaving an empty shell of doubt

Who is it you see comfort in?
What is it I cannot provide?
I know of stealth in the cover of dark
That thief in the night was me

Dying alone where my legacy ends
The trudging way the honorable hair
The final breath that I draw in
Death rattle groan that no one hears
I′ve done this to myself, I created my own hell
What a fitting place for my end, for my end

Feeding away at the full front of pain
This mind has traveled by my very soul
I've done this to myself, I created my own hell
What a fitting place for my end

My last step always hurts
With a desperate look in my eyes
Now is when I need you to believe me
And know this was all for real


So I wait at the shore of failure
And I know it would happen to me
I just may deserve the exact same fate
And my path in life is bending

Here in the silent dark
The emptiness reveals my heart
Why are you so ashamed of me?
Living in a secret that no one sees

My last step always hurts
With a desperate look in my eyes
Now is when I need you to believe me
And know this was all for real

So I wait at the shore of failure
And I know it would happen to me
I just may deserve the exact same fate
And my path in life is ending
