I know of a place
Not far from here
Where the world fades away

And everything is silent

A place of surreal beauty

I often go there
And I isolate myself
from the world


In isolation
Bathed in emptiness

Quiet contemplation
Utter hopelessness


In isolation
So intoxicating
My inspiration

Is ever fading

Solitude, my cunning friend

I have nothing
There is no hope, no despair
Only quiet reflection


The bleak, baleful designs
That I fashion

May someday come to pass
Should I have my way


In isolation
Bathed in emptiness
Quiet contemplation

Utter hopelessness

In isolation

So intoxicating
My inspiration
Is ever fading


The weight of the world
Crashes down

It brings me...
It brings me down


I have drifted
so far away
From everything

From everyone

In quiet solitude

I will fade away
I won't look back (no)
I won't look back


Maybe someday
You will understand

Please forgive me (oh)
Please forgive me
