v.ne.vovim

v ne vovim (the holy dragon)
my blade set her blood free
i chased the shadows
chased a dream of change
i wasn't in control
i wasn't in control
chasing darkness for a purpose
grey beyond black
my veins stood out
as did my weakness
but at least i was alone

and i swear to him
(to him that i do)
if it's wrong to dream
it's dead to be alive

but my eyes were open
searching beyond the light
still chasing the shadows
comforted by holy twilight
reason above all else
turning backs is turning tides
where the hell are we going today
where are you going today
i wasn't in control
i wasn't in control

so anger filtered itself
scrubbed against black stone
left my eyes like another
another of my dreams
but i swore to him
and only him did i swear
that if it's wrong to dream
it's death that is birth

i chased the shadows
caught them with three grips
void in some twisted irony
caught myself
caught the light
bled darkness
lifted it above ego and persona again
hiding away

my heart was still
and will was suffocating
but i still don't mind
don't mind if i don't think
don't mind if i don't share
don't mind if i don't obey
don't mind if i don't care
don't mind if i don't control
don't mind if i don't love
i wasn't in control
because i caught the light

dreams flicker
and love is deception
i dream of being alone
loneliness is gold
gold is the freedom from your blood
