[Verse 1]
Drifting into the lives
Seep into the soul
Where emotions hide

[Refrain]
Dark skies were beating me down
With shadows of deceit
Slashing at trust 'til it forever bleeds
With doubt (With doubt)
With pain (With pain)
With trust is pain

[Pre-Chorus]
When you think of me
In your multi-dimensional mind
Try and wash the evil from your mind
And open it

[Chorus]
When you taste the truth
You will see like others before me
To you I am past, a story to tell
To you I am past, a story to tell
Tell it!

[Verse 2]
If you think you own the end
Take another look at the script
Of sadness etched in the book

[Refrain]
Dark skies were beating me down
With shadows of deceit
Slashing at trust 'til it forever bleeds
With doubt (With doubt)
With pain (With pain)
With trust is pain

[Pre-Chorus]
When you think of me
In your multi-dimensional mind
Try and wash the evil from your mind
And open it

[Chorus]
When you taste the truth
You will see like others before me
To you I am past, a story to tell
To you I am past, a story to tell
Tell it!
