[Intro - Ellie Goulding] I had a way then Losing it all on my own I had a heart then But the queen has been overthrown And I'm not sleeping now The dark is too hard to beat And I'm not keeping up The strength I need to push me [Hook - Ellie Goulding] You show the lights that stop me turn to stone You shine it when I'm alone And so I tell myself that I'll be strong And dreaming when they're gone Cause they're calling, calling, calling me home Calling, calling, calling home You show the lights that stop me turn to stone You shine it when I'm alone [Verse 1 - Black Smith] Well...here we go again... Successful once more when the pad connects with pen Somethin' 'bout the bass and kick unleashin' all my talent A po' man but still rich in thought; call me Edgar Allen Poetic with intent, in the vein of Langston Hughes Meets W.E.B. du Bois --- souls shaded different hues Through the darkest times of life, I got guidance from my crew Now as I pray for safe voyage, the lighthouse signals out my cue, true! [Hook - Ellie Goulding] [Verse 2 - DooBay] Now I lay, down to sleep To the Lord, my soul to keep Eyes closed, darkness creeps Driftin' lower, Devil's retreat In his clutches, in his heat Can't escape, can't believe I'm his slave, strapped in chains Never can I ever see My children, my friends, my motherfuckin' family Death -- hopeless Despair -- broken Thoughts filled my head, When I awake from my bed See myself in the mirror Can't describe the fuckin' picture: Body burnt, body torn Demon eyes, demon horns Blood spilled, on the floor Turn around; there my girl Dead on the floor -- this ain't right! I'm the demon from my mind Not a dream, this is life Gun loaded, my time to go is now Now, need to do it now How, can I live my life without my girl now? How? Nah, gun cocked, now Ka... Pow! [Hook - Ellie Goulding] [Verse 3 - Black Smith] Voices in my head, I need choices in my bed ... AWWGGHHH!!! Get out my fuckin' head Shadows of my ghosts follow everywhere I tread Now when I step out in the light, all I only feel is dread But my only fear is death, and I taste it on my breath Plus I'm askin' every night why I didn't die instead How'd the blackest of these clouds become the coziest of spreads? Now I only hope this fire chases down the tar I'm fed Through these many wounds I've bled, why am I peelin' at the scars? And if all my dreams are dead, why am I gazin' at the stars? Lonely at the top, but I led this fuckin' charge Like the art's my only love, but my game ain't up to par The agony prescribed, without the ecstasy to start And the pills I've tried to pop can't dull the sharpness of these darts Poison in the tips of every hollow, every barb So I pray my heart ain't infected from my affair with all this dark Told the roomie "leave my door cracked" before he hit the switch Maybe not the best idea--- my entire body starts to twitch My eyelids won't even touch--- what kind of nightmare am I in? But I sense it in the air: my hellish Matrix hit a glitch And there in front of me, sat the figure of a witch--- A black and hazy mass of a woman with a grin Whose grey and empty pupils sent me shivers deep within And the tremors only heightened when her fingers gripped my chin As I'm fightin' for my life, a hiss of hot air whiffed my nose And my chest is tryna heave, but my lungs won't even blow Would shrill the loudest scream, but my vocal chords are closed And I wonder, why's this always happen when I'm all alone? But as my corazon thumps its final desperate roll A discovery is made, coldest one I'd never known: My mind broke down to pieces once I saw my Mother's go And the final question is: will I ever again feel whole?...
