Forever Dark
Journey Through Shadows: Embracing Solitude in 'Forever Dark'
Lyrics
I am the king
I identify as the ruler
Of this ghost town
In this abandoned place
All my friends left a long time ago
All my companions departed long ago
So don’t call me when shit goes down
Don't seek my help in difficult times
I should have left a long time ago
I should have left this place earlier
You planted a seed inside of me
You instilled a potential problem within me
Just to see if it would grow
To observe if it would develop
That was a long fucking time ago
That happened a significant time ago
I’m learning how to be happy again
I am in the process of rediscovering happiness
But this week isn’t over
This current week is not yet concluded
And I just lost another friend
Recently lost another companion
Now I’ve got demons running circles in my head
Now I'm haunted by inner struggles
Sometimes I wonder if they could find me
Contemplating if these struggles could locate me
Find me if I’m dead
Find me even if I'm deceased
That’s never what you’d want
You wouldn't desire
to leave someone here broken and empty
To leave someone shattered and void
Then they would be as lonely
They would then experience the same solitude
Lonely as me
As lonely as me
Lonely as me
-Oh, Colin where’d you go
Colin, where have you disappeared to?
I wanted you to know
I wanted you to be aware
My life aches with you in heaven
My life is filled with sorrow, imagining you in heaven
Maybe I’ll find peace
Perhaps I'll find tranquility
Knowing where you’re headed
Knowing your destination
Forever dark
Eternally gloomy
Forever dark
-Carry on my friend
Continue on, my companion
I will do the same
I will follow the same path
Carry on my friend
Continue on, my companion
I will do the same
I will follow the same path
