Dream of Black
Journey through Desolation: Phantom Cage's Dream of Black
Lyrics
Here I am, adrift again
Feeling lost and directionless once again
Paralyzed and alone
Unable to move or act, experiencing isolation
Astray with shame and wasting away
Lost, filled with shame, and deteriorating
Overboard once more, bent and broken back
Repeatedly thrown overboard, physically and emotionally damaged
My bones ache, my thoughts forsake
Experiencing physical pain and mental abandonment
Futile mind and frame beaten by the waves
Feeling helpless, body and mind battered by life's challenges
There's no forgiveness for what I never became
Regret and lack of forgiveness for not achieving potential
My time has come and passed
Time has passed, a sense of missed opportunities
The man in the mirror has cracked
Self-reflection reveals personal flaws and brokenness
All I envisioned has collapsed
Aspirations and dreams have crumbled
So let me sleep and dream of black
Desiring an escape through sleep, embracing darkness
Dancing in the void, flirting with despair
Engaging in self-destructive behavior, toying with despair
Taken in the depths, loathing and regret
Consumed by negative emotions, drowned in remorse
Encased in silence, too submerged to scream
Trapped in silence, too submerged in problems to express pain
Surrender my breath, fading light beam
Surrendering to a fading light, accepting defeat
My time has come and passed
Reiteration of the passing of time and missed opportunities
The man in the mirror has cracked
Reflecting on personal flaws and shattered self-image
All I envisioned has collapsed
Acknowledging the collapse of dreams and goals
So let me sleep and dream of black
Yearning for an escape through the embrace of darkness
My time has come and passed
Repetition of the theme of time passing and missed chances
The man in the mirror has cracked
Self-image continues to deteriorate and crack
All I envisioned has collapsed
Recognition of shattered dreams and aspirations
So let me sleep and dream of black
Desire for solace through sleep and embracing darkness
My time has come and passed
Continued reflection on the passage of time
The man in the mirror has cracked
Self-perception remains broken and damaged
All I envisioned has collapsed
Acknowledgment of collapsed dreams and aspirations
So let me sleep and dream of black
Yearning for an escape through the darkness of sleep
